My doctor tore 1/4 of my flap off during an epithelial ingrowth cleaning, which subsequently caused increased epithelial cell ingrowth. Does tearing of the flap during an epithelial cleaning occur often and should it of not happened? It resulted in me having my whole epithelium amputated because of cornea melting. I now have multiple images and only can hope for better sight.

What you are describing is not typical.
You should get a second opinion.
