In november i had a repeat corneal graft on the left eye with keratoconus as the last one ended up in trauma which led to failure of the graft,i also lost my natural lense in the process.my graft looks clear but the vision is still very blurry and i have double vision,for example seeing many reflexions of bright lights is this normal?what are thr chances of ok vision in the eye at the moment i see nothing.i also suffer from visual snow syndrome

Hello dear, Repeat grafts as you already must know have a higher failure chance. Such grafts tend to swell up and cause blurring, snowy appearances, and difficulty recognising things. To add to this, since you lost your lens due to trauma, new lens or without lens things become more complex. That also leads to decrease in good vision.
Next Steps
Discuss with your surgeon about chances to decrease graft failure. Try discussing about decreasing inching graft swelling with some medicines, and try to a lens placed if not already put
Health Tips
Inserting a lens or a contract lens use in graft cases may lead to earlier graft failure and therefore must be planned accordingly.
