Life After LASIK: What to Expect from Your Vision
The path to better eyesight through LASIK eye treatment often has a life-changing impact, freeing people from glasses and contact lenses. It’s equally important to set realistic expectations for recovery and the pace of visual improvement. At Spectra Eye Hospital, we provide comprehensive, expert-led care to guide you through every step with confidence.
Understanding What Is LASIK Eye Treatment
LASIK is a cutting-edge procedure that corrects refractive errors by reshaping the cornea using laser technology. Femto LASIK (bladeless) uses a femtosecond laser to create a precise corneal flap—enhancing safety, comfort, and recovery compared with older techniques.
Early Recovery Phase
Right after surgery, your vision may fluctuate and appear hazy for a day or two as the cornea heals. Temporary effects like dry eyes, light sensitivity, and night halos are common and usually resolve within weeks.
At Spectra Eye Hospital, we support this phase with personalised aftercare—lubricating drops, protective guidance, and scheduled check-ups to manage these temporary effects effectively. Know more: Everything You Need to Know About LASIK Surgery at Spectra Eye Mauritius
Handling LASIK Eye Treatment Side Effects
- Dry or irritated eyes (temporary reduction in tear production)
- Glare, halos, or starbursts at night (typically short-lived)
- Mild discomfort or foreign-body sensation
Serious complications are uncommon. Our team evaluates candidacy carefully to minimise risks and optimise outcomes with Femto LASIK.
Keeping Your Vision Clear
LASIK delivers excellent correction, but natural age-related changes like presbyopia can still appear later, meaning reading glasses may be needed for close work. Regular eye check-ups remain important to maintain long-term eye health after LASIK.
Thinking About the LASIK Eye Treatment Cost
Costs reflect technology, surgeon expertise, and the level of personalised care—especially for premium options like Femto LASIK. Spectra Eye Hospital is committed to transparent pricing and tailored plans that prioritise safety and results.
