When my Dr. did my follow-up visit (2 weeks after my surgery) I listened to him telling the nurse to type numbers onto my chart in the computer. He said that my left eye was +1/2.
He said that my right eye was -1/4, +1/2.
What do these numbers mean?
I ONLY had astigmatism before surgery. He said that I'm seeing 20/15, but the lady who did an exam in the previous room told me that I'm seeing 20/20. He said that he wants to see me again in 3 months. I'm wondering if something is not healing right?

I wanted to add that I still see halos with my right eye, but not with my left.
