Deciding to undergo Laser Vision Correction (LVC) is an important step towards freedom from glasses and contact lenses. At Mayapada Eye Centre, we understand that the success of the procedure not only depends on the surgery itself but also on the optimal recovery process.

This article will guide you through the stages of post-LVC recovery, whether it’s LASIK or SMILE PRO, to ensure the best results for your vision.

Stages of Recovery After LVC

Day One

On the first day after the LVC procedure, you may experience symptoms such as blurred vision, itching eyes, or a burning sensation. This is normal.

You are advised to rest, avoid strenuous activities, and follow the doctor’s instructions on using eye drops and pain relievers if necessary.

First Week

During the first week, your vision will gradually begin to improve. You may still experience mild discomfort such as dry eyes or a foreign body sensation.

It’s important to keep your eyes clean and use the prescribed eye drops to reduce the symptoms of dry eyes.

Weeks Two to Four

In the second to fourth week, most patients experience significant improvement in their vision. However, some may still experience side effects like glare or halos around lights, especially at night.

Be sure to attend follow-up appointments with your doctor to monitor progress and evaluate the results of the procedure.

Following Months

In the months following the procedure, your vision typically stabilizes completely. At this point, you should feel more comfortable and be able to return to normal activities. If necessary, your doctor may recommend additional check-ups to ensure optimal results.

Each patient has a unique recovery experience after the LVC procedure. A good understanding of the recovery process and adherence to the doctor’s instructions are key to the success of the procedure.
