Are there any risks or complications associated with LASIK Eye Surgery?

Asked 6 months ago
LASIK Eye Surgery is generally safe, but like any surgical procedure, it does carry some risks and potential complications. While most patients experience improved vision without issues, there are a few risks to be aware of. Some possible complications may include dry eyes, glare, halos, or double vision, which are usually temporary and resolve over time. In rare cases, vision loss or severe visual disturbances may occur. However, serious complications are extremely rare. The best way to minimize risks is to choose a reputable surgeon with extensive experience, as their expertise significantly reduces the likelihood of adverse effects. Additionally, proper preoperative evaluations and postoperative care are essential to ensure successful outcomes and reduce any potential complications.
