Vision loss after C3R

Question

Asked for Male, 24 Years

I am a mild stage keratoconus patient with corneal thickness of 460 microns in right eye at time of C3R. Three weeks back i had my C3R done in affected eye. I had 6/12 vision then. After C3R my vision is severly impacted.. Upon visit to doctor I got 6/24 vision on refraction. Now after three weeks the vision has dropped even lower to my previous levels. I have immense blurriness such that I cannot even read texts or see objects from book reading distance clearly. Does this mean I had a failed C3R surgery and my vision won't restore back? Please help. I am really tensed. I am using lubricant drops and steriod drop since three weeks too.
