LASIK eye surgery is an overwhelmingly popular procedure that is typically painless and requires little recovery time. During the procedure, a tiny incision will be made on your cornea using a microkeratome. The surgeon will then use this flap to reshape bends that have occurred over time on your cornea and caused vision problems. You are given local anesthesia, so you won't feel a thing as it's happening.

Common Questions about NY LASIK Eye Surgery

Many NY patients have a variety of questions prior to LASIK eye surgery. Here are some common questions that we answer:

• NY LASIK eye surgery will take 15 to 30 minutes per eye
• The corneal flap will heal within a couple of days
• There are no stitches or bandages needed, but you will need to wear a protective contact lens as you heal

Side effects of LASIK eye surgery are minor if any. The chief complaint is sensitivity to light. This usually subsides within a day or two. Also, our surgeon will prescribe antibiotic drops for a few days to stave off any infection. In just weeks, you can be fully recovered and throw away your glasses or contacts forever!
