Regression after Lasik

I had lasik on last saturday.Before Lasik I had -6.25 in my left eye and -6 in my right eye, The next day after lasik I couldnt see clearly and had blurry vision and felt that I didnt get a 0 in either of my eyes.I went on a follow up visit to my doctor and according to him things will go fine and i just need to wait.Three days after that and I feel my vision has gotten worse instead of improving and I can easily feel that my left eye is more weaker than the right eye.I have difficulty wathcing tv, reading books etc.Any opinions on this please?

You've got to call your doctor.  It is generally not a good sign if your vision is getting worse.

Please do some homework and possibly be ready to hear some really bad news, permanent news.  The Statute of Limitations is ticking away, and you may have only 12 months in which to sue your LASIK surgeon for permanent injury.  You may ask an attorney about this and ask if you should compile recordings of conversations and medical charts that may one day come in handy in court.

Thanks for the reply.I have spoken to the doctor and he says i have -2 in my left eye and -1 in my right eye so i need to wait for a week and then i can get my glasses made according to the new number .He says to go  for an enhancement laser after 2.5 months.I am now worried about the side effects of this much laser in my eyes as well as what will happen if even an enhancement laser doesnt improve my vision? Any opionions about enhancement laser and its sideeffects?
