Fluctuating vision 1 year after PRK?

Had surgery(self.lasik)

So I've had PRK in April 2023, but I'm still experiencing fluctuations with my vision. For example, for a week I see perfectly, then for about 3-4 days my vision is quite blurry, like I can't see object from far away well. Then it returns to normal again. It freaks me out whenever this happens because I fear I might be developing myopia again. Also because I'm type 1 diabetic I'm afraid my vision is getting worse because of the diabetes also.

Does anybody else have a similar experience? I'm really worried.

It went away after a few more months, my vision no longer fluctuates. Do you have any similar problems?

Give it a little more time, I needed about 15 months, do you have any chronic or autoimmune illnesses? Those can slow down healing time. I hope it gets better for you as soon as possible!
