How long after LASIK can I go back to work?

< Back to FAQ

Most patients go back to work a few days after having LASIK.  

The vision the day after LASIK is often very good so it may be possible to resume work the next day. However, since some light sensitivity may occur, we at Clearview Eye & Laser recommend taking the weekend off.  

To make things easy for many patients, we do surgery on Fridays, so people have the weekend to recover.
