LASIK and central islands

Posted By Dennis Koutsoures on July 20, 1999 at 13:56:25
Here are my details:
before surgery:
  1. -5.5 diopters
surgery number 1:
  Vision was corrected to about 20/70.  It was also noted that I
  had "Central Islands".  The doctor recommended a "touch-up".
surgery number 2:
  Vision was corrected to about 20/50.  The central islands are
  still there.  The doctor said a third surgery was possible.
If my understanding is correct 3% need a second surgery.  This means 3% of 3% or .09% need a third surgery.  What is central
islands and will a third surgery correct it?
Very concerned,
Dennis
