Swimming After LASIK: When to Jump In

swimming after LASIKIf swimming is something you love and you are considering LASIK eye surgery, you might be wondering how soon you will be able to return to swimming after LASIK.  As with all medical procedures, recovery times vary from one patient to the next, so only your doctor can determine exactly when it is safe for you to return to the water. However, there are some general guidelines regarding how long most people have to wait.

Sea, lake, river water contains many particles and organisms that can cause infections if they enter your body through cuts, scrapes, or surgical incision sites, including the tiny incisions created during LASIK.  Chlorinated pools may have less harmful bacteria due to the chlorination process, but pool water chemicals can still be harmful to your eyes right after surgery.

Unlike refractive eye surgeries of the past, today’s LASIK procedures using the latest technology, such as custom Wavefront LASIK and bladeless LASIK techniques, do not require the use of a blade to create a corneal flap during the procedure.  This makes the surgery safer and more effective than ever, and shortens the time it takes your eyes to heal.  But, even though healing is fast, it is not instant.  The flap that is created in your cornea during the procedure can become infected if foreign substances enter your eye before the flap has had time to heal completely.  It typically takes 2-3 weeks for the outer edge of the flap to seal.  Until it has sealed, it is best to avoid anything that is not clean or sterile, including swimming water, near your eyes.

To learn more about your specific recovery time from LASIK eye surgery, or to find out if you’re a candidate for LASIK surgery, schedule your free consultation with the Phoenix LASIK surgeons that doctors trust.

Cataract Symptoms: What You Should Watch For

Laser surgeryAlthough it is possible for cataracts to develop at any age, your risk of developing them increases significantly as you age.  Cataracts can be treated and your vision can be improved again, but it is important to know what cataract symptoms to watch for so that you can contact your Ophthalmologist and schedule an eye exam.

At first, cataracts often have very little effect on your vision.  As things progress over time symptoms begin to become noticeable.  Some of the most common symptoms include:

  • Cloudy vision and double vision are often the first signs that people tend to notice.
  • Vibrancy of colors begins to diminish and things may take on a yellowish tint.
  • Reading can become more difficult.
  • Sensitivity to bright lights.  This can make it difficult to drive, especially at night, because of the glare from the headlights of other cars.

Any time that you notice symptoms such as these, or experience other unexpected changes in your vision, it is always recommended to have your eyes examined in order to determine if you are suffering from cataracts or other eye diseases.  After determining the cause for any changes in your vision, your eye doctor can inform you about treatment options that are available and together you can decide the best course of action.

If you think you might be suffering from the symptoms of cataracts, or want to learn more about how Laser surgery can help your vision, contact Moretsky Cassidy Vision Correction for a free consultation.

LASIK Results: How Much Improvement Should I Expect?

LASIK SurgeryAs with any medical procedure, LASIK results cannot be guaranteed.  The exact results you will experience from this type of surgery will depend on many factors, but there are certain results that are common and can often be expected after LASIK eye surgery.

One factor that plays a role in how much improvement you will experience is the type of laser that is used.  In the past, some lasers could boast that they could improve vision to 20/20.  Today, lasers using the latest technology are capable of improving vision beyond 20/20 in some cases.  The latest technology and techniques available allow surgeons a much greater level of precision when performing the procedure than ever before.

The biggest factor in how much improvement you will experience is you: what your vision is like before the procedure; what the overall health of your eyes is before the procedure; how much correction is required, etc.  These things all play a vital role in how much improvement is possible.  In general, most people who have LASIK surgery are happy with the amount of improvement that they experience.  According to USA Eyes, 97% of patients surveyed after having LASIK would choose to have the surgery again knowing what they know now, and 98% would recommend surgery to family and friends based on the experiences they had.

The best way to get an idea about how much improvement you could experience with LASIK is to talk to your Ophthalmologist about your specific needs and concerns.  Your eye doctor can help give you a realistic idea about how your vision can be improved with this procedure.

To discover what kind of results you can expect from LASIK eye surgery, contact the Phoenix “Doctors that Doctors Trust” for a free consultation.

What Does LASIK Correct?

lasik surgeryYou’ve probably heard that LASIK surgery can help people see better, but you might be wondering exactly what does LASIK correct?  Well, there are a few specific vision problems that this procedure is specifically designed to improve.

First, LASIK does not correct vision loss due to eye diseases such as glaucoma, but rather it is designed to correct refractive errors.  Refractive errors are eye conditions that prevent light from focusing properly.  This causes vision to be blurry.  In a healthy eye, light passes through the cornea and the lens and is then focused on the retina and the brain interprets this as an image.  When part of the eye is misshapen, light is unable to be properly focus on the retina and things appear blurry.  These are refractive errors and these can be corrected with LASIK surgery.

Myopia, or nearsightedness, is the most common problem that LASIK can correct.  Nearsightedness occurs when the eye is too long or the cornea is too curved to properly focus light onto the retina, making things at a distance look blurry.

Hyperopia, or farsightedness, occurs when the eye is too short or the cornea is flatter than normal.  This causes objects up close to appear blurry.

Astigmatism is another type of refractive error.  Astigmatism occurs when the cornea of the eye is not consistently curved, which causes vision to be blurry both up close and at a distance.

These are the three most common refractive errors that can be corrected using LASIK surgery.  The amount of vision improvement that can be accomplished with this procedure varies from one patient to the next and depends heavily on how severe the refractive errors are that require correction.

LASIK Recovery Time: What Should You Expect?

LASIK SurgeryBefore you have LASIK surgery, it is perfectly natural to have questions about the procedure and what kind of LASIK recovery time you can expect.  As with all medical procedures, it is impossible to predict exactly how long recovery will take because recovery time can vary significantly from one patient to the next. However, there are some things that you can expect.

For many patients, vision is significantly improved within a day or two of the procedure.  It is important to keep in mind that complete healing often takes more than just a day or two, and full recovery may take up to six months; vision may continue to improve during that entire time.  Before your procedure, your doctor will talk to you about your specific situation and give you an idea of any things that might affect your recovery time.

After the procedure, you typically will be able to return to work and other normal daily activities within a day or two, even though your eyes will not be fully recovered at that time.  After three days nearly all patients experience improved vision and have decreased discomfort and decreased tearing, which allows them to return to work and other activities. Rarely, other symptoms such as light sensitivity, glare around lights at night, a feeling of dryness, or fluctuating vision may last days, weeks, or months. These symptoms are unusual and will vary, but are reduced when the iLASIK procedure is used. If you continue to experience any of the symptoms, you should visit and speak with your LASIK surgeon.
