Frequently Asked Questions
You can find answers to some of our most frequently asked questions about LASIK procedures.
What will happen during my LASIK evaluation?
Plan to be at doctor’s office for approximately 1-2 hours for the exam and special testing used to measure and evaluate your eyes. If you wear contact lenses prior to your scheduled evaluation, you may be asked to refrain from wearing contact lenses for a specified period of time. Your eyes may be dilated in preparation of a detailed eye exam that will evaluate refractive error, pupil size and corneal evaluations. There will be a thorough discussion of LASIK eye surgery and whether you may be a potential candidate.
How long will vision correction last?
Your distance vision is fairly permanent following laser vision correction. The goal of laser vision correction is to reduce or eliminate your dependence on glasses and contact lenses. The need for reading glasses is a normal age related change and laser vision correction does not change this.
How soon after surgery can I resume normal activities?
There are minimal restrictions in the first weeks following LASIK. Many patients are able to resume normal activities the following day. Vision results from LASIK can vary, but most patients are able to see clearly 24-48 hours after surgery. Further vision improvement may continue over several months. Your doctor will recommend avoiding certain activities, like swimming or contact sports for several weeks.
How does PRK compare to LASIK?
PRK and LASIK surgery have comparable results and your doctor can discuss which is most appropriate for your condition during your evaluation. A major difference is LASIK surgery creates a hinged flap on the cornea. LASIK patients report minimal irritation and their vision stabilizes more quickly than PRK. PRK involves treating the surface of the cornea. PRK recovery takes a few days with hazy vision and some discomfort. It is often recommended when the patient’s cornea is too thin for LASIK.
