How do your eyes feel after Laser Eye Surgery?
After Lasek Eye Surgery, you might feel the following sensations for a few days:
Discomfort – The amount of discomfort varies between individuals. Taking Tylenol should relieve it.
Foreign Body Sensation – A feeling like sand is in your eyes may occur in the first 1-2 days.
Tearing – Your eyes will probably tear for the first couple of days. **Remember** DO NOT rub your eye(s). Just dab gently.
Red/Swollen Eyes – Your eyes may be slightly red and/or swollen during the first 48 hours.
Blurred Vision – Typical for the first 48-72 hours until the corneal surface heals. This will be significantly improved by the end of the first week.
Ghosting/Glare – During the first few weeks your vision may fluctuate slightly or you may experience some ghosting or glare. This is normal and will improve.
Light Sensitivity – You may experience an increased sensitivity of light for the first few days after the procedure. A good pair of sunglasses will help.
