After nearly six month I've done with Lasik eye surgery, there are still people that I know asking what happen to my glasses. I assume that these people knew that I've used to wearing glasses quite a long time and when I does not wearing it, common question will keep continues everytime I meet friend that I did not see for a long time. For some friends that are wearing glasses of contact lens, for sure there will be hundreds of questions they will ask and they assume that I knows everything. I just a human being that sometime when we do things doesn't meant that we knows everything. Same with me but sometime I feel guilty when I can't answer them. So, I've done some research and look for informations that I need if people may ask me things that they need to know about Lasik eye surgery. Anyway, I'm sure to everyone who has read my blog, some of the common questions that I manage to find the answer, I'll share with you. Anyway, you can google and there will be thousand of information on Lasik but I only focus to general questions that people use to ask me.
I hope these will help everyone to have more clear view on Lasik eye surgery. There will be others who has more knowledge especially the doctors who's doing the surgery but you need to understand that doctors usually share things that are related to the surgery and other advices after the surgery. Beyond than that you need to look information to furnish yourself about basic or general knowledge on Lasik eye surgery. Hopefully people who read what I've share will benefit from my writings.
Does Lasik safe?
It is safe and an effective procedure but you need to remember it is not a right choice for everyone. If you proceed with Lasik, you may receive a minimal result. It is a must for everyone to have a comprehensive check before you undergo this eye surgery.
It is hurt?
No. It is a painless treatment You will be given an anesthetic drop to make sure your eyes a numb. You may feel a light pressure sensation around your eye, and after the procedure is finished you will feel a sensation, but most people experience very little pain.
How long is the procedures?
The actual procedure usually takes less than 10 minutes per eye. Depending on your prescription, and the amount of correction needed, the laser itself only takes 20-50 seconds to correct your vision. However, you should plan on being in the office for approximately an hour-and-a-half on your day of surgery.
How soon can I see after surgery
The majority of patients resume normal activities one to two days following surgery but it may take 1 to 2 months for your vision to fully stabilize. Although everyone is a little different, the vast majority of our LASIK patients achieve legal driving vision or better, the very next day. That is one of the most exciting advantages of the LASIK procedure; clear vision comes in quickly.
These are some of the informations from my reading with few sources in the Internet. Later I'll share on the possible implication and other thing that are related to us. See everyone on next post.
Please take care of your eyes.
