Lasik Treatment in India



After your LASIK procedure, you will receive a pair of protective glasses that you will be asked to wear over the next few days. You will be asked to use medications in your eyes as per the prescription.
Your eye may feel slight irritation or you may tear up or water for a few hours. If you experience any discomfort, you may opt to take an over-the-counter pain reliever. Typically, patients go home, and after a bit of rest (wearing protective eye shields) are quite comfortable within a short period of time. Please remember not to rub or touch your eyes during the early healing stage, especially those first few hours.

When can I resume normal activities after LASIK?

Most patients are able to return to work after a day.
Apart from your routine post-procedure instructions, you will be allowed to resume most of your normal activities, except for the restrictions below:
  • Do not shower for five days following your procedure.
  • Do not rub your eyes
  • Do not wear eye makeup for one week.
  • Do not drive the day of your procedure.
  • Do not watch TV/ any screen or read for prolonged periods of time for a few days.
  • Wear your protective sunglasses for the first week following your surgery.
  • Avoid dusty environments for one week.
  • Do not do heavy exercise for two weeks.
  • Avoid swimming, hot tubs and whirlpools for one month
  • Avoid contact sports that could result in an eye injury for one month.
