hello,
laser cause blurry vision immediately after your focal laser treatment you can expect to have blurry vision, mostly from the bright light of the laser. Occasionally, the eye will feel scratchy on the day of the procedure. This usually resolves within 24 hours. There are no restrictions on your daily activities after receiving the treatment.. In this type of surgery, laser beams destroy the leaky blood vessels that form beneath the macula
as you were told having viral infection ,this might be the probablity which never recur again in other sessions.
eating food containing antioxidants. omega fatty acid tablets,
stop smoking are advisable for you.
take care and i hope i answer your queries
