Epithelial Scratch
Hello everyone. I had LASIK performed two days ago. I had the Custom Blade less procedure and it was a snap! The only problem is that I went in yesterday for my initial post op review and I have a small problem. My doc tells me I have a "good size" epithelial scratch. I don't know how this happened. I have a pair of goggles that I wear at night. I tightened them down so tight on my face, that I had red lines around my face when I woke up. He said he didn't know if it happened during the surgery or if I scratched it myself.
Is this something that will heal on it's own?????????? I'm a little scared right now. He put in numbing drops yesterday and a clear contact on the affected eye. I just don't know what to think. I'm probably overreacting, but I'm kinda freaking out.
Any advice would be great.
Thanks,
Wilson
