He did tell me that I was border line and said he may have to fix it after surgery. Why he didn't do it at the time I had surgery I don't know. He is not forthcoming about any thing I have to pry every thing out of him. how long dose it take for recovery If he lances it he reminds of a car salesman just phushing the HD lens and he wants me to have the other eye done in two weeks but IM going to wate until this eye healed. Again thanks for your help.

If you have bad astigmatism, you had it before surgery.  It should have been corrected or they should have told you before surgery that you may need a  laser touch up.

Hey Doc. I called my Doctor this afternoon and he had me come in they checked me out real good. He said that every thing was right where it needed to be. They done some test with the what I call better are worse machine when she did that and every thing was perfect I have a bad astigmatism he said when the swelling went down that it should be close but if not he would lance it. They also check my pressure was good to. Any way thank you for your help.

They should refract you during your post op visit.  This will determine if you target is off, there is astigmatism, or some other problem.  You surgeon should be able to explain the problem.  If not get a second opinion SOON.

Vision for distance is usually good within a few day.  Were you dilated?

I had a CL 50 implanted and It took more than a week before the cloudiness and blurry vision improved very much.  It's been about five weeks now and my vision continues to improve.
