Wearing contacts surgery

I was quite short sighted for years and had laser eye surgery about 6 years or so ago. My sight was perfect until recently when I have noticed that it has gone a bit downhill. It's not an issue for driving yet but I do not like not being able to see as clearly as I am used to.

I went to boots and got some lenses- daily disposables to wear occasionally , as these are what I wore before surgery, and while one eye is fine with them , my right eye can tolerate them for a bit then I get searing pain, so I move the lense or lubricate it with some eye drops . This calms it slightly but some days it's constant pain, other days I can wear a lense all day and have no trouble at all.

I read something about laser surgery sometimes changing the shape of your eye?

Just wondered if anyone else has had this problem?

No, but you really need to get back to your optician ASAP with this I think, have you got glasses you can wear in the meantime?

Yeah, I think I'll go back to them , but also may give the people who did the surgery a ring as they do promise unlimited aftercare.
