lost focus after lasik surgery, HELP!

1)It has been a week since i had lasik, and i can see better than 20/20, however my eyes lose focus when i stare at an object or screen for a period. Then i blink several times or look away, and my eyes gain focus again like a camera lens.
2)And I also can barely open my eyes in the morning as they are so dry, I would have to use the lubricating drops immediately.
I am 25, and have had glasses since the age of 10, both eyes were -7. Is this temporary ?

No way to tell you for certain but as a generalization this is common.  I'm assuming you have LASIK and not PRK where its much more common and lasts longer. Ask your surgeon if you can use preservative free artificial tears for the dryness.
