I am very troubled and confused.
(I had Lasek 6 mos. ago)
I found out today in my office visit- that according to my Dr. and tech they did not feel the need for objective dry eye testing ie. schirmers, tbut during my screening. They state that they can observe the tear film to ascertain this info. In my case they did not note dry eye, it seemed within normal limits. I just feel that I could've been saved from this nightmare of DES I am in now if these basic tests were done.
IS this the case, is cornea observation enough?
What pre-screening tests did you have?
What could I have done differently?
Thanks
