LIFE AFTER LASIK
For most of our patients, the day following a LASIK vision correction procedure is truly memorable. While visual outcomes can vary, the majority of patients achieve clear, functional vision without the need for glasses or contacts. Typically, after a restful night’s sleep, you’ll notice a significant improvement in your vision.
In fact, 99% of our clients are able to drive themselves to their day-one post-operative exam without glasses or contacts. This brief, 15-minute exam ensures that your eyes are healing properly. Most patients experience functional vision quickly and are able to return to work in no time.
Visual outcomes can differ from person to person, but most achieve clear vision without relying on glasses or contacts. To give you an idea of the success rates, consider these iLASIK statistics:
- All nearsighted patients and over 95% of participants in clinical studies successfully passed a driving test without the need for glasses or contact lenses.
- 98% of patients with mild to moderate nearsightedness and nearly 75% of all participants in clinical studies achieved 20/20 vision or better without the need for glasses or contact lenses.
- Participants with mild to moderate nearsightedness were four times more likely to be very satisfied with their night vision after treatment compared to their satisfaction with night vision before using glasses or contacts.
ONGOING POST-OP CARE
Following the procedure, it’s natural to experience a healing process with some fluctuations in vision. Dr. Eisner will conduct all post-operative exams to closely monitor your progress and ensure a smooth recovery. He will continue to oversee your care until he is confident you are ready to be released. Typically, your post-op exam schedule will be as follows:
- One day
- One week
- One month
- Three to six months
- Released for annual exam
