RK/cataract surgery scarring

Long ago I had RK done for severe myopia. About two years ago I had cataract surgery on one eye. During the surgery a T cut opened causing corneal scarring. I now have cloudy vision in that eye.   Is there any treatment that would alleviate the scarring/cloudy vision?

You should visit an Eye MD ophthalmologist that is a cornea/refractive surgeon with an excellent reputation and experience dealing with post RK problems. We have such an individual in our Discover Vision Centers in Kansas City, John Doane MD but there are others throughout the US and most parts of the developed world.

The cornea will never be perfect but some improvement is often possible.
