I had Lasik surgery 2 days ago and I am seeing much better. However it is not a good as it was with contacts. My perscription was -9 and I had intralace. I can still see well but I mainly notice it when I am driving. I don’t seem to see the highway signs as fast as I usually did. Will it get better?

Can you wear contacts after you get LASIK surgery?

Test asked:


If you get a Lasik surgery and you need to wear glasses again after a few years, can you wear contacts?
I know Lasik is supposed to give you 20/20 but I heard some people had to wear glasses again after a few years. probably because their vision at the time of Lasik wasn’t stable.

Is there a flap created with bladeless lasik intralase?

Like the flap that is created with traditional bladed lasik. Does it exist with intralase? Because I am aware of the problem of the flap in bladed lasik never healing and being able to be dislodged under certain circumstances in the future and I am wondering if intralade bladeless lasik has the same flap concerns.

I am thinking about getting lasik surgery. I want to go in for a consultation but i am a little apprehensive about the whole thing. What exactly do they do during the consultation-like what tests do you have to get on your eyes,etc. Does going for a consultation mean you have to get the surgery?

What is the lowest vision that they will perform lasik surgery on?

I want to get lasik but Im afraid my vision isn’t bad enough. I have -2.00 in both eyes and -.25 astigmatism. I wear contacts but i get sick of putting them in and taking them out everyday and not being able to fall asleep watching tv and not being able to see the clock when I wake up. Would I be a good candidate for it? I have still have to wait though b/c even though im old enough my eyes haven’t stablized yet.

Are there any serious ones that show up later? I’m considering the surgery.

If laser eye surgery can fix far sightedness, does that mean near sightedness can worsen or vice versa?

Laser eye surgery: Post op symptoms for long-sightedness correction?

Peter M asked:


Hi. I was wondering what the general symptoms are for people who have had corrective laser eye surgery and whom were long sighted. I hear for short -sighted people their vision is near 20/20 almost immediately, whereas long-sighted people it takes a lot longer after the operation to get full vision clarity back. Is this the case?
So when do long-sighted people generally get the deisred level of vision after the operation? ! day, 1 week, 1 month?

I hear for long-sighted people who have it, it can be anything up to 12 months.
