Yes. After the LPI was when all my balance and depth perception issues started. It started immediately after, so it was not a coincidence like one dr told said to me. It has been 4 years since mine was done and they have not closed up. I also think people with auto immune issues like I do will fare worse.

The dr did 7 laser shots in each eye.

7 laser shots per eye! ....... I read that if the iris is too hard to penetrate, that they have to use 2 different lasers. Is that why you had so many ?
The doctor did not get into any of these kinds of details with me during my consultation.

Were you told, or can you tell if your holes were placed under your upper lids or out to the sides?

Not knowing any of this , means I wouldn't be able to ask about it. I would rather know everything, instead of being surprised..... or should I say, "attacked" with 7 zaps I was not prewarned about.

Truly, your coming forward with your personal experience is really helpful.

Thanks so much for sharing
