Red patch in Eye after Epi Lasik

2022-09-11 04:11:48
It's been 3 days post Epi Lasik on both eyes. I recently noticed a red patch in my left eye while looking at the mirror. Is it alarming? Will this affect my vision? Also when can I start watching TV and screens post op? When will my reading vision improve?
