Hello
It seems from the history that you are having herpes infection in the eye in the form of corneal infection.
The treatment is by the use of antiviral drugs like acyclovir. In case of immune related viral infections like disciform keratitis, steroids are required to be used.
Usually vision improves in case of herpetic viral infections.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
