Lasik Eye Surgery Recovery – What You Should Be Aware Of

February 18th, 2012 Questions on Lasik Eye Surgery

Ruth asks…

One month ago, I had the strabismus eye surgery to cosmetically correct my eye-ball position.?

The surgery results is good and I am making good recovery. However, that eye is an lazy eye. It has astigmatism and also long-sighted. I am wondering if lasik procedure can be performed on it to correct its vision.
I am a 37 yr old male. I do wear glasses

answers:

How old are you? Do you have good vision in the lazy eye when you wear your glasses? Did you have treatment for lazy eye as a child (wearing glasses and patching the good eye)?

If you are over age 20, did not have treatment as a child and do not have good vision in the lazy eye with glasses then LASIK will not help. LASIK replaces glasses, if glasses don’t correct your vision, LASIK won’t either.

If you do have good vision with glasses, you will need to personally see a LASIK centre for assessment. It is more difficult to treat far sightedness than near sightedness and whether or not it will work for you depends on your individual factors.

Mandy asks…

What foods are good to promote healing of the eyes?

I’ll be having LASEK (not LASIK) surgery in about a week. The doctor is giving me drops and medication and the like to promote healing, but i was also curious if there are any natural foods that i can eat before and during the recovery process that will give my body what it needs to repair my eye properly and quickly.

answers:

Vitamin A (Beta Carotene) is the best nutrient for eye health. Good sources are carrots, apricots, cantaloupe, mango, broccoli, pumpkin, squash, and meats and poultry.

Joseph asks…

For those of you who’ve had lasik, please offer me some of your experiences about after the surgery?

i’m getting lasik very soon and i was wondering how long your personal recovery took. i have a networking event to go to the very next day and i’m wondering if it’s possible to still attend? do your eyes get really red? is your vision still blurry? please let me know. thanks :)

answers:

Make sure you get a lot of sleep before your event. As long as it is not physical activity you should be good after 24 hours.
