It's been almost 3 months since my C3R and Intacs procedure for keratoconus but my eyes are still super sensitive to light. How long does this usually last before it gets better?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Light sensitivity (photophobia) after C3R and Intacs procedures for keratoconus is common and can last for several weeks to a few months. While the initial few days might be the worst, most people see a significant improvement within 1-3 months. Some may experience lingering sensitivity, especially in bright lights or when wearing sunglasses, but it generally stabilizes.

i'm trying to decide between contoura vision and smile surgery but i'm confused about the side effects and why contoura is considered better even though it's cheaper than smile can you explain which one would be the better option overall
Contoura offers better customization for corneal irregularities; SMILE has less dry eye and no flap. Choose based on your corneal thickness and lifestyle. Consult a refractive surgeon for suitability.
