  • The Best Options After LASIK

    Any ocular surgery requires a suitable amount of rest, patience, and follow-up appointments. Your eyes can be very sensitive, especially after an invasive operation. For a safe and speedy recovery, it is usually recommended to keep your eyes shielded to prevent damage. Specifically speaking, after LASIK surgery.

    What is LASIK?

    LASIK surgery is an ocular procedure meant to repair the patient’s vision to where they no longer have to wear glasses or contacts. With the use of a laser, your surgeon will precisely cut and change the shape of your cornea. This is done to manipulate how light hits your retina, resulting in corrected sight. This surgery will restore any errors in your sight, as well as your quality of life. 

    Recovery Process

    Positive news is that most patients see an immediate difference in their sight after the procedure is complete. Just like all other surgeries, there will be a required recovery period to complete the treatment. The healing phase lasts for about 3-6 months, but eye protection should be worn for the 5 nights following your surgery. When you sleep, you may have very little control of your movement. One wrong swipe could interfere with your operation site, so it is best to protect your eyes with shields. 

    Eye Shields

    At Eyeshield Technology, it is our job to provide you or your company with the best quality eye protection. Having a variety of options, we suggest choosing whichever your doctor recommends. Tinted shields will provide you with vision, but also protect your freshly operated eyes from harsh rays of light. Your eyes will be sensitive for many days, but will gradually become stronger. Clear eye shields will serve as protection from interference during sleep, but will not prevent light from shining in. Keeping the eyes undisturbed is key, so choose whichever will suit your lifestyle.

    LASIK surgery is known to improve one’s sight and is an extremely safe procedure. Providing your eyes with the proper protection will expedite recovery and will ensure proper healing.
