Question About Eye Doctor
Doctor, I'm 14 Years Old. I Had Keratoconjunctivitis. For This, I Consulted A Eye Doc And He Treated Me With Some Drops. But, I Was Still Feeling That My Left Eye's Vision is Blurry. Then, I Went On A Different Opthalmologist And He Told Me That My Left Eye Still Containing Viruses And He Write This As "L/E Stromal Keratitis" in Diagnosis Section And He Also Told Me That Small White Spots Appeared On My Cornea Due To The Keratoconjunctivitis. He Recommended Me To Use A Lubricant Eye Gel Called "Hylo Gel". I'm Also A Patient Of Myopic Astigmatism. My Vision is 6/6 With Glasses But I Can Feel That My Left Eye's Vision is Blurry Than Right Eye. Doctor Told Me That The Blurry Vision is Normal in My Cases Due To The Spots. Now, My Query is: 1) Had I Developed Corneal Scar (Which Develope Due To Untreated Keratitis)? 2) If I Had Developed Corneal Scar Due To The Untreated Keratitis With The Corneal Spots, Would My Opthalmologist Would Be Able To Understand The Corneal Scar? Please Ans, Doc.

One can get a corneal scar  after keratoconjunctivitis episode. You have not mentioned the duration anywhere in your question. Considering your problem a recent one, I would recommend to continue with hylo gel for a complete 4 months.  If scar is superficial u will notice a difference. Otherwise later on, we can add other eye drops for treatment depending upon the scar. Considering that your vision is 6/6 with spectacles, I won't recommend a very aggressive/invasive approach.
