hello krolen, hello to all,

7 days after the treatment and my vision has almost recovered. I can read a newspaper, watch tv….

A very slight blur persists, that is rather difficult to recognize when eyes work together…

I had no irritations, I had no pain… But all these (no) symptoms are due almost to the hazard, I think. The procedure of stabilization of the cornea’s collagen is not a matter of day, it lasts for 2 up to 6 months.

In other words, the significant improvement of the vision is expected much later. The topography scheduled 30 days after the treatment will be a reliable indicator, if the surgeon’s decisions (on PRK) were the best. I hope so…

I use VIGAMOX and DISPER-SANDRON C, (1+1)X4 drops per day.

I feel good and I am optimist for the final issue.

Regards from Athens,

epik
