Left eye residual myopia after Lasik
I had Lasik surgery about 1.5 months back. My right eye vision was perfectly clear after a week but it seems left eye still has myopia. I can't see the last two rows clearly in the eye exam. I think it's not because of dryness because when using pinhole eye occluder on left eye I can see properly. I can however see clearly with both eyes open. I wanted to know if this condition is common post lasik and if this can cause any further issues?
