Lol that is one cool picture!....Do you zoom in from a distance or just move the camera close to the eye?
Cornea is looking good!
How long before the fog disappears....

OK, was this a response to some of the latest posts ? So refraction as a noun refers only to the process when they measure your vision. Glasses and lenses are better described as correction?

It gets worse. Sometimes it is used as a verb: I am going to refrace you today. Or a noun "Have you had a refraction today" or an adjective "|did the optometrist give you a refraction test?"
Yopu see, Per, English striuggles against neat classifications and will always find a way to be free. I was aware the other day that I had started to use the noun "party" as if it was a verb! Still, I do try not to split infinitives.

Back again from lasik 2 and behind dark Jack Nickholson sunglasses, so hard to type a long report. Only say that everything seems ok by now. Again, it is a weird experience to see the green lights in the lasik machine and antibiotics drops dropping down when a tissue of your graft is off
Well, so far all is good. Checkup tomorrow.

Check up today:
Tissue well back on place and the cornea surface is now as even as a perfeck one. He only mentioned there would be a possible third op to correct the angle. Vision is now 6/12, which is the best I had on that eye. Resent graft eye wasn´t measured, but it is slightly better. It is up to me to consider a third lasik or go for specs to gain a 6/6. But it is all on hold to wait for how the cornea may change in the next two or three months. It may well change for the better. So we´ll see, (literally spoken

What is strange is that after the first op there were weeks with oedema post op. This time the tissue was put back on place and one hour later I could go home with a clear cornea.

Update.
It has been a troublesome last two days witn pain in my graft eye and the white in the eye apple has been slightly pink. A visit to the hospital showed that small particles of remains from whatever eye drops or sweat from the skin on the eyelid, or simply dirt from the air has gathered around the roots of some of the eyelashes. This is causing some irritation. Luckily it was no rejection. So I`m now on chlorampheninchol 6 times a day until the end of easter. When I think bakt I now remember that I had somthing like this on my other eye as well. Anyone with experience on this ?
