corneal scars

corneal scars

After 4 months since my lasik eye surgery I have now been diagnosed with corneal scarring on both eyes due to the surgery.  I have star bursts that are persistent and make night driving a challenge (my new eye glasses just warp the light).  I am told the scars are the cause of the star bursts.  Are the scars permanent and is there a treatment for them?  Also would a second surgery (an enhancement) help with these?
Thank you

Get a second opinion.  You can use drops for night driving, use a hard contact lens or consider an enhancement.
