Are dry eyes common after LASIK

Ten million people have dry eyes in the U.S. LASIK will temporarily worsen one’s dryness. For most people, their symptoms of dryness improve with time and with management of this condition by encouraging adequate hydration, use of topical non-preserved tear preparations, moisture ointment at bedtime and restasis eyedrops. Should eyedrops not be adequate, other treatments are used too.
