Cross-post from the Facebook group. But I thought this question could still find an answer.
After an erosion, I have frequently had my vision affects (blurry, halos) for often a few days or the longest up to two weeks duration.
Since my last painful erosion (about 2 months ago), my vision has completely changed. But in a strange way. I know that abrasions / erosions can affect vision, however, my vision is often times 95 - 100% clear when I wake up. Then rapidly though becomes more blurry throughout the day.
What's been happening is after I wake up, my vision in my RCE affected eye is about '95 - 100% clear' for a few minutes. But then only 15 - 30 minutes later, my vision in RCE affected eye is about '70 - 85% clear.' My lack of clarity in my RCE affected eye gets progressively worse throughout the day. Normally 2 hours later, the vision seems only '50 - 60% clear,' and 8 hours later it's only '20 - 30% clear.'
I'm near-sighted and wear prescription eye-glasses. My vision only becomes blurry for things further away, especially I test it with text on the T.V which is about 1.5 meters (about 5 feet) away from the couch where I sit. For the entire day though, my laptop which is less than .5 meters (1.5 feet) away from my eyes the vision is mostly fine. Except I notice some 'double text' when viewing white text on a black background.
So my question is this.. I've had RCE for 1.5 years. I have had about 6 'severe' morning erosions during this time, and maybe 15 very minor erosions while waking up. Often times my vision is affected or changed, but normally my vision is only different for 5 - 6 days from a severe erosion or only 1 day or a minor erosion. However, this is now 2 months and my vision is completely different. When I did an eye check-out the other day, we did a vision test.. and the grade of my eye prescription in RCE affected eye is different now when we tested it in the middle of the afternoon. The doctor recommended waiting 3 months though before I go out and buy new lenses with the new grade / prescription.
My questions are this..
1) Can RCE really permanently change your eye-glass prescription / grade?
2) Why does my vision get progressively worse throughout the day? It starts off being clear, but then becomes almost totally blurry for things far away, but things close are not affected.
3) Is 3 months a good amount of time to wait to accept that yes RCE has completely changed my eye-glass prescription, and to buy new lenses with the new prescription?
4) How can the vision change problem with RCE be solved?
I already try to prevent erosions, etc. with numerous eye drops and gels, yet I don't have any way to prevent my vision from changing.
