After the corrective LASIK laser eye surgery, you may experience some temporary side effects:

1) In the first 2-3 days, you may feel slight discomfort or pain in your eyes.

2) You may also experience a watery eye and your vision may seem hazy or blurry.

3) During the first week, you may be sensitive to light.

4) For up to a month, you may have difficulty with driving at night as you may see some halo effect.

5) Fluctuations in vision may occur for up to six months, with the vision getting batter after the first week.

You should also take good care of your 'new' eyes as listed below:

1) For the first 2 weeks after the corrective LASIK laser eye surgery, you should not wear any eye makeup.

2) For the first three days, you should not participate in any form of sports since your cornea is still recovering.

3) For the first four weeks after corrective LASIK laser eye surgery, there should be no contact sports of any kind and you will need to wear an eye shield to bed to protect the incision made on the cornea.

4) You will also be instructed to stay away from swimming, hot tubs and whirlpools for at least eight weeks.

5) For the first six months following corrective LASIK laser eye surgery you should not attempt wearing contacts.
