One of the
most popular questions we are asked is: How long does it take to heal after
LASIK surgery?
Our answer
is: In most cases, the healing process
is remarkably quick. In fact, often by
the next day, patients report an improvement in vision although there may be a
haze or fog.
After LASIK
surgery, someone will need to drive you home.
Your eyes may be itching, uncomfortable, weeping or may burn a little
and will feel a bit blurry. This is normal
after LASIK. You will be told to rest
for several hours and may be instructed to sleep with an eye patch as it is
important that you do not rub your eyes.
Medicated drops may be prescribed by your LASIK surgeon.
Although everyone heals differently, vision typically stabilizes within six months. If you have questions about LASIK, contact Charleston Cornea & Refractive Surgery in Charleston at 843-856-5275 or charlestoncornea.com.
