i did transprk too! mine took around 3 months to have "perfect" eyesight. but by the first month, vision was around 90% there already. the last 10% takes a bit longer to clear up. but that was fine with me because i could do most things with no issue already.
Thank you for your kind sharing! Apologies I missed your reply. Ii did transprk too! mine took around 3 months to have "perfect" eyesight. but by the first month, vision was around 90% there already. the last 10% takes a bit longer to clear up. but that was fine with me because i could do most things with no issue already.
and i remember the optometrists took all the same eye tests again on surgery day anyway, to get the most updated measurements. so i wouldn't worry about under correction at this point!
patience is key! and also lubricating your eyes regularly
No worries!! I think it's definitely possible that vision can get better than 6/6. But I guess 6/6 is what the doctors are aiming for at the very least. I'm not sure what my visual acuity is but at least its functional and I don't have to depend on specs for now! So very happy already.
what was your prescription before surgery? ICL is more invasive than laser vision correction yet it tends to be marketed as being as safe as other less invasive methods. i don't think ICL is a case of "you get what you pay for" because it's so much more expensive but doesn't guarantee better results than with laser vision correction. but i do understand that it's a great option for people who have very thin corneas and high myopia.I am having exactly the same issues!! Just made hardwarezone acct for the first time so that i can write abt my ICL experience. (also having trouble getting to see dr theng again post op. it is like impossible -_-)
one eye turned out fine, the other eye everyday got eyeache, now also starting to see FREAKING FLOATERS. (cue me doomscrolling what floaters in my vision might mean)... my night vision in general seems affected (like not enough light getting in), halos make me scared to drive at night/ got white vignette vision at night, and i have trouble holding focus on things. makes me feel like i'm not totally present.
should i also add: i ended up getting myopia again in 1 eye! who knew such a thing was possible! so now my degree without the lenses are worsened!
btw HALO VISION also seems guaranteed because of the hole in the middle of the lens. this was totally downplayed as a potential side effect during the initial consultation with the advisor. it has lessened, but they are still around. Imagine watching tv / doing makeup with two large faint light circles (venn diagram) in your vision.
I am now thinking of doing surgery to get these horrible things out, but i'm scared it will do more damage.
I finally seen the doc for a follow up, have to blow away 200 dollar. He just say having a degree on the right side is a good thing. Otherwise, your risk of presyobia at age 40 is much higher. No need to relasik.
Hello, able to PM me the code for Dr Lynn yeo? Thanks!
