When can I travel by plane after having laser vision correction?

Most patients can typically fly the day after their LASIK or laser vision correction treatment if it is a normal, commercial flight. There are many patients that travel from across the county and even internationally after having LASIK with no complications. Because dry eyes are a normal side effect of laser vision correction and that dryness can be aggravated by flying, we recommend using non-preserved tears regularly to treat the eyes during the flight.
