Headaches do NOT usually occur after LASIK. Sometimes eye strain does occur, and some patients call this a “headache”. Our written postoperative instructions and regimen are designed to help prevent eye strain and dry eye.
Over time, it is important to use preservative free drops to keep eyes moist, wear sunglasses while outside, take breaks while working on the computerusing smart phones and tablets screens, and protecting your eyes as they continue to heal. Because your eyes have changed so much, it will take some time for you to get used to the new vision, causing some strain until your vision completely stabilizes. Discuss any strain or headaches with us during your follow-up appointments.
If you have strong, persistent headaches after LASIK, immediately see us so we can determine the cause and give you proper treatment.
We want you to feel comfortable before, during and after surgery. Please call us if you have any questions.
Schedule your free LASIK exam with Dr. Sandy T. Feldman and see how LASIK can change your life.
