LASIK Recovery: How Fast Does Dryness Heal? | Dr. Raghav Malik | Planet LASIK
How long does dryness last after LASIK or SILK surgery? Dr. Raghav Malik from Planet LASIK explains that while corneal nerves may take up to 3 months to fully regenerate, the use of prescribed post-surgery medications and lubricating drops significantly speeds up recovery. Most patients experience dryness, mild irritation, or watering only for about 2 weeks. With proper care, comfort returns quickly, and patients can resume normal daily activities within just 24 hours after the procedure. Following your doctor’s advice ensures a smooth and faster recovery after vision correction surgery.
