What Is The Treatment For Eyes That Are Sensitivity To Light?
I have received a new prescription for reading and distant glasses and they failed to put anti glare coatings on them. I had RK back in the day before laser and my eyes are sensitive to light. With these glasses w/o AR coating, my eyes are burning, watery and irritated after a couple of hours.

Hello
It seems from the history that you had RK surgery following which you are having sensitivity to light. This may be because of epithelial defect or because of opacity caused by opacity caused by the RK surgery.
The treatment is by use of artificial tears eye drops.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
