What are the Steps Involved in LASIK?
The following is a common step-by-step approach towards achieving a clear vision with LASIK eye surgery:
- 1. Before beginning the procedure the patient will be given local anaesthesia as eye drops to prepare them for the surgery.
- 2. After the anaesthesia, the face of the patient is covered leaving only the targetted eye exposed.
- 3. The eyeball is then stabilized by placing a vacuum ring around the cornea.
- 4. Then, using specialised equipment known as a microkeratome, a thin hinged flap is formed on the surface of the cornea
- 5. Following that, a LASIK laser is used to precisely reshape the cornea to improve vision as a computer tracks and monitors your eye.
- 6. After reshaping the cornea, the flap will be reinstalled on the surface of the cornea.
What are the Precautions?
Following are some post-surgical procedures a patient should follow to get the desired results with a quick recovery time:
- 1. Avoid rubbing the eyes
- 2. Use UV protective sunglasses to avoid bright sun, wind, dust and pollution
- 3. Reduce screen time of watching TV, working on phone or computer
- 4. Avoid swimming or contact with water on the eyes for a month
- 5. Use medicines or eye drops as advised by the doctor
- 6. Consult your eye surgeon in case any issue arises
-
Owing to the simplicity of the procedure, the recovery time is pretty fast. With an outpatient procedure and a quick surgery, the patient can resume back to their normal activities as early as 24 to 48 hours of the surgery. The recovery time may also vary from one person to another depending on how well a patient followed the post-surgical precautions.
