Lasik Eye Surgery Aftercare: The Dos and the Don'ts
Sara Chambers
Lasik surgery is becoming increasingly popular among individuals
struggling with vision problems. Providing people with a way to
toss out glasses and contacts, lasik surgery offers complete
vision to those who have lived their whole lives on those
mechanisms. Still, there are things to consider, including how
the surgery works and the dos and don'ts of lasik eye surgery
aftercare.
How the Surgery Works
Lasik eye surgery is not a long process. In fact the FTC
explains the procedure only takes 10 to 15 minutes per eye.
During the procedure, a small flap is cut and lifted away from
the eye. The tissue of the cornea is then reshaped by the laser
and then protected by a plastic or metal shield.
What You Should Do After
Another important element is taking your medication as described
by the prescription. If you need help with drops, ask for it.
Wait the appropriate length of time as described by your doctor
before you continue with your regular activities such as work.
Lomas Eye Care adds that you should wear eye protection during
the nighttime to keep anything from bumping or scraping the eye.
Drink adequate water to keep hydrated.
What You Should Avoid After
There are many, many things you will want to avoid after your
surgery. The first of these is rubbing your eyes. Do not, under
any circumstances rub your eyes. In addition, avoid driving
until your vision is completely clear and focused. In addition,
the Federal Trade Commission also recommends that you keep away
from hot tubs and swimming.
Keep away from strenuous physical activities, especially one
that could cause eye injury. Also do not exercise for a week
after the operation. In addition to these things, you should
keep away from smoky, dusty areas and refrain from wearing eye
makeup.
Conclusion
Lasik eye surgery
can change a person's life, and in most cases healing time is
relatively quick. But this time can be made easier if
individuals follow the dos and don'ts listed above. If you
follow your doctor's instructions, you are much more likely to
heal without complications.
