What to Expect During the LASIK Procedure

LASIK reshapes the cornea to correct how light is focused on the retina. The process includes:

Creating a thin corneal flap using a femtosecond laser
Reshaping the cornea with an excimer laser
Replacing the flap to heal naturally without stitches

The entire procedure typically takes around three minutes per eye, and both eyes are treated on the same day.

Recovery and Results

Most patients notice visual improvement within 24 hours. You may experience some blurriness or mild irritation on the day of surgery, but recovery is rapid.

LASIK Recovery Overview:

Keep eyes closed for the first four hours
Use prescribed eye drops as directed
Avoid swimming and eye makeup for 7 days
First follow-up is the next day, second follow-up within 1–2 weeks

Encima 90% of patients achieve 20/20 vision or better.

What Vision Conditions Does LASIK Correct?

Astigmatismo

Caused by an uneven corneal shape, resulting in blurred vision at all distances. LASIK smooths the cornea for sharper focus.

Nearsightedness (Myopia)

Light focuses in front of the retina, making distant objects appear blurry. LASIK flattens the cornea to improve distance vision.

Farsightedness (Hyperopia)

Light focuses behind the retina, affecting close-up vision. LASIK steepens the cornea for improved near clarity.

Presbyopia

Age-related condition that makes reading difficult. Monovision LASIK can reduce or eliminate the need for reading glasses.
