* Terms and Conditions apply

After your no blade laser eye treatment operation

Laser eye post-operative examinations are required at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months from the surgery date for LASIK, and 3 days, 4 weeks, 3 months for LASEK with additional appointments at 6 months for both procedures. These appointments are important because they help us to evaluate the healing process of your eyes and to guard against infection. The average post-operative appointment in our clinic takes approximately 15 minutes.

Eye Surgery Recovery

Post-Operative Instructions (instructions will vary somewhat depending whether you have LASEK or LASIK

A mild burning sensation will be experienced 2-4 hours after the surgery as the eye anaesthetic applied during surgery wears off. Paracetamol or ibuprofen will help reduce the discomfort. An additional comfort drop may be provided to numb the eye during the first 72 hours.

After the surgery, ensure your eyes are closed for the first two hours. It is preferred that you lie down, relax, and close your eyes during this period. Watching television, reading or any type of computer work is to be avoided for the first 24 hours. Your eyes need to remain relaxed, and avoiding these types of activities will aid in preventing any unnecessary complications.

It is very important not to rub your eyes after laser eye correction, as this will cause problems after the surgery. For LASIK, wear the plastic eye shields every night for the first 7 nights following surgery. Shields are not necessary after LASEK. The purpose of the eye shields is to protect your eyes while you sleep so that you do not instinctively rub them.

Sunglasses will be required to wear for the first 24 hours after LASIK surgery. It is important to wear the sunglasses outside - rain or shine during the first 3 days.

Try to take baths and not showers for the first 48 hours following surgery. When you do have showers, do not allow the shower to spray directly on your face for at least the first week. This will prevent any possible injuries to your eyes. Use a face cloth to wash your face during this time, paying extra attention to not rub your eyes. Your face may be washed as normal following the first week.

Avoid any eye makeup for 1 week. This includes mascara, eye shadow, eyeliner or any other type of makeup around the eyes. Lotions and lipsticks are allowed.

Avoid any smoky or dusty environments for 1 week. These environments will irritate your eyes. If you are exposed to these types of environments, remember to apply additional lubrication with the artificial tears supplied.

Avoid any alcohol consumption for the first 48 hours following the surgery. Alcohol increases your eye dryness and will restrict the healing process.
