My RK Eyes

9 months ago I had a double blepheroplasty. No problem except that I had had RK 12 years ago. The procedure made me seriously hyperopic (+3.75 in each eye) As a result of the eyelid repositioning.When I posted in desperation on this site Timothy mcGarity told me to be patient and wait at least 9 months.. In the meantime I saw 6 top eyesurgeons all of whom wanted to undertake interventionist activity fro RLE to lens implants.
I am so glad that I took Dr McGarity's advice as my eyes have slowly got back to normal in the last three weeks.
Thanks Medhelp
