What Causes Soreness In The Lower Eyelid After Laser Treatment?
Last week I had a laser treatment and the technician use shields under my eye lids too protect my eyes from the laser. One week later I have soreness in one eye and when I pulled my lower lid out I see canker sore (ulcer looking ) sores. Do I need to see a doctor asap?

Hi,
It is really important to see a doctor at the earliest, to prevent complications. It could be laser that might have caused the irritation of conjunctiva thereby leading to formation of ulcers. On the other hand the symptoms could be because of eye infection which can only be ruled out after examination. Kindly, visit a opthalmologist to get your eye examined.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
