Lasik Surgery: A Comprehensive Guide for Healing and Recovery at Laxmi Eye Hospital

Lasik surgery, a transformative solution for vision problems, enhances or eliminates dependence on glasses or lenses. At Laxmi Eye Hospital, we prioritize effective treatment and post-surgery care to ensure optimal results.

Surgery Procedure:

Lasik utilizes a laser to create a corneal flap and reshape the inner cornea. The corneal tissue and flap heal rapidly, aided by the eye's natural healing power.

Healing Period:
  • Majority resume daily routine within a day or two post-surgery.
  • Reading, computer work, and TV watching can typically resume within the first week.
  • Caution against dust, water splashing, and vigorous activities for two weeks.
  • Doctors recommend follow-up visits on the next day, after one week, one month, three months, six months, and 12 months.
Healing and Recovery Process:
  • Quick healing of the corneal flap, often within a week.
  • Complete healing and recovery span six months, resolving vision problems and minimizing discomfort.
  • Discomfort is managed with prescribed eye drops.
  • Regular check-ups during the six-month recovery period ensure optimal healing.
Activities During Post-Surgery:
  • Consult the surgeon frequently for three months for healing assessment.
  • Annual check-ups post-healing to monitor eye health and vision.
  • Adhere to prescribed medications and guidelines.
  • Use prescribed eye drops to minimize discomfort and prevent infections during the initial weeks.
Post-Surgery Follow-up:
  • Continuous adherence to prescriptions and guidelines.
  • Monitoring healing progress after one month.
  • Annual check-ups for long-term eye health and vision clarity.

At Laxmi Eye Hospital, our focus is on providing personalized care, ensuring a smooth post-Lasik recovery and sustained vision improvement for our patients.
