My right eye CYL changed from 0.5 to 1 and SPH went from 3.75 to 3.5 does this mean my vision is getting worse or better? Also, my left eye has CYL 2.25 is that really bad? Should I consider surgery in the future or just stick with glasses for now?

I had surgery about a month and a half ago, and my daytime vision is clear, but as soon as evening comes, everything gets really blurry. Even small text inside or outside looks hazy in artificial light, though it's sharp in sunlight or mornings. Is this normal? The blurriness in low light is uncomfortable and makes it hard to see details.

Yes, this is a common experience after surgery, particularly eye surgery like LASIK or cataract surgery. Blurry vision, especially in low light, can be a temporary side effect as your eyes and brain adjust to the new conditions. It's often related to healing processes, dry eyes, or how the eye processes light.

Something feels stuck in my left eye like an eyelash but I can't see anything there. My eye is irritated and uncomfortable. Can eyelids actually go inside the eye? How can I get relief at home without needing surgery?

Foreign body sensation could be due to a scratch or lodged particle. Use lubricating eye drops, avoid rubbing, and see an ophthalmologist if it persists beyond 24‚Äì48 hours.
