pain after eye exam

Hi, I had lasik 5 years ago. Doctor wanted to see my retina because of something and tried to put a lens on my eye but my eye was too sensitive. Now it hurts although it is getting better. Could she have pulled the lasik flap attempting to put the lense on my eye to look at my retina? what would the symptoms of the flap coming off be like?

It is possible that there could be a scratch on the cornea and a small risk the flap was unseated. Hopefully your "doctor" is an Eye MD ophthalmologist. If so call right now and ask to be worked into the schedule today or tomorrow as a medical work-in. Let them know the pain followed the lens being put on the eye.
