Hello
Thanks for asking a question at HCM
I will be glad to answer for you
It is common complaint few of them face after laser eye surgery
Be sure not to expose your eyes to sunlight as it can further aggravate the situation.
Go for a Ophthalmalogist check u to see if any infection is there.
The doctor will give drops to avoid dry eyes and to combat any infection if present.
Hope this helps
Best Regards
