Inflammation in ICL operated eye
I have gone for ICL 1 mnth back in my right eye. Everything was fine for first 3 weeks. But after that one night I wake up to find my eyes blood red and I was unable to open the eyes too.
Doctor examined and told that I am having eye inflammation which is rare in ICL but can happen.
I have to travel to onsite for my work for 1 year and I postponed it for 1 mnth.
Now I have blury vision at night and sometimes feel cold sensation in eye.
Please suggest if this is serious and if I can travel or no

It is difficult to discuss about it as the details furnished are limited. The redness could be either unrelated to ICL, or due to infection, or due to inflammation against ICL which is running other tissues within the eye.
You may use artificial tear substitutes like refresh tears for cold sensation at night, apart from what your ophthalmologist had prescribed.
