AFTER YOUR LASIK PROCEDURE

Within hours of your surgery, constantly regenerating cells will already be growing over the edge of the corneal flap, helping to "glue" it down. This process takes a few days. Over the next several months, the internal healing process will totally seal the flap.

In the interim, however, it's important that you do all you can to make the surgery a success. The moment you leave the LASIK center, you are encouraged to take an active role in your body's healing process by following a specific regimen prescribed by your eye doctor.
