When will vision stabilize after Epi-Lasek?
Bsj74
Eight weeks out. Last week had three days of good vision (7 or 8 on a scale of 10). Yesterday, vision was blurry and eyes very tired (5/10). Today, much of the same. Thanks.

No way to tell how long it will take you to stablize. Depends on too many factors. You will have much better idea 4-6 months.
