Lasik eye surgery

I had a power of -4.00 in both eyes and underwent LASIK surgery recently. After three months, one eye is 6/6 and the other is 6/9. Along with this, there is some white discharge after surgery it was continuous." 6/9 vision due to dryness, or is the refractive error returning However, I am using milflox and normo tears lubricant

Refractive Error

My son is 3 years old, he doesn't interact much and doesn't and doesn't follow instructions. Recently he has been diagnosed with refractive error in both eyes. The doctor has prescribed a minimum number as of now -2.00 Cyl in RE & -3.00 Cyl in LE. He said his LE number can be more. There is a sph number also. Can someone tell me what needs to be done. As I have seen at multiple places the number keeps on increasing until 18 years of age. Also the doctor has prescribed Pataone drops once a day and ecotears plus (Sodium Hyaluronate 0.18) drops twice a day. Any suggestions and help matters.
