What Is The Cause Of Blurred Vision?

I have a nickel-sized lump on the right side of my throat that has been there about 1 month. I have been on zithromicin (Z-pack) for sinus issues and the lump did not go away. I also have noticed I have blurred vision in my right eye. I don't know if this has been a sudden onset or if it has happened so gradual that I am just now noticing, but it is considerably blurry compared to my left eye. I did have LASIK eye surgery 10 years ago. Just wondering if I should be concerned that it might be more than just nearsidedness returning. Thanks!

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
It seems from the history that you are having blurred vision and you are also having sinus infection and you have undergone LASIK 10 years back.
The blurring of vision is not related to sinus infection. Since you have undergone LASIK surgery for refractive error, this most likely indicates a refractive error.
Hence this requires refraction and correction.
Hence I advice you to consult optometrist or ophthalmologist for further examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
