Hi,

Can anyone tell me that since my double vision is getting terrible and terrible, do I need to get it done again? Although, my scans tells a different story. As per the scans the vision is stable.

Hi Liam,

when did you get your cxl done? Is your vision better than before apart from double vision? Also, is double vision getting worse even now or it has stopped?

I agree with you completely. I have the same condition as you. My haziness reduced, even the Pentacam shows that it has stopped but double vision is getting worse. I don't know why.. but I talked to my doctor and she said that it is due to unevenness of surface that might cause to have double vision...

So, what do you think can be the reason for this? Because in my case as well my vision on paper seems to be better than it was before cxl but I feel that my vision has degraded a little bit.

Hi, I had surgery in my right eye in last September and my scans after 5 months shows some improvements but I am feeling that my vision is worse than it was before. I don't know why this is happening but I could have drive in night before my cxl surgery but I cannot now. My next appointment is in 2 ...

Can you also tell me about the long terms affects of cxl? I mean is it permanent or Keratoconus can start progressing again?

Thanks Again... You are always have the perfect answer.

Thank you Cripps. But did you notice the decrement in upper and mid section. I think it is creating a little bit of haziness for me as it is in center part of the eye. I hope that it fades out soon as the eye heals itself. I can notice the reduction in thickness of the cornea but does it take over a...
