I had a deep corneal abrasion and the doctor said there's a slight scratch on the corneal stroma near the pupil area. My vision is 69 now and improves to 66 with a pinhole in the left eye. I've been using fluorometholone drops and lubricant gel for 3 months. I also had PRK surgery 4 months ago, but my right eye is fine. How long will it take for this to heal?
