After laser eye surgery like LASIK, the recovery process is typically swift, with many patients noticing improved vision within 24 hours. However, full recovery and stabilization of vision can take up to six months. In the first 24 to 48 hours, patients may experience mild discomfort, dryness, and light sensitivity. Follow-up appointments are usually scheduled within this period to monitor healing and address any concerns. During the first week, most discomfort subsides, but some side effects like glare or halos around lights may persist. By the end of the first month, vision should stabilize, though some individuals may still experience mild symptoms. Regular follow-up visits continue to ensure proper healing and to address any ongoing issues. By three to six months, most patients achieve their desired visual outcomes. Post-operative care includes using prescribed eye drops, avoiding rubbing the eyes, and protecting the eyes from potential irritants. It’s essential to follow your ophthalmologist’s instructions and attend all scheduled appointments to ensure optimal healing and visual outcomes.
