LASIK and Haze / Foggy / Cloudy Vision
So yesterday, I woke up to a major shift in the vision in my left eye – things were REALLY hazy like as if it was when I just came out of the operation. I knew that post-op you’re to expect shift in vision quality, but this was a major negative shift. I had six hours of sleep, and I always put lube drops in my eyes prior to sleep. I called my doc to ask what’s going on, and she asked me what I was doing prior (sleep), and if I might have rubbed my eyes (only thing I can think of is I sometimes sleep face down on the pillow, which puts pressure on the eye).
Anyways, she thinks it was just major dry eyes, and told me to put drops in my eyes every 30 mins (I usually do every 2-3 hours), and told me that as long as I’m not feeling any pain (I was not), I should be fine. She also scheduled an appointment to see her today if it was necessary.
Gradually through yesterday, my sight improved again, and this morning, it’s back to normal.
I made this post as a general FYI to those who experience this to not freak out completely. If it persists for more than one day, then see a doctor.
But man, that was sorta scary.

Oh and uh, I hear you’re the creator of Shi-Painter. I would love to download it so I can use it off the Internet. Could you tell me how? And if that’s not possible because of copyright or something then sorry. ^^;
