How Long is the Recovery for LASIK?

The recovery period for LASIK eye surgery is relatively short, with most patients experiencing improved vision within the first 24 to 48 hours after the procedure, though individual results may vary. While you may resume most normal activities within a few days, it’s essential to follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions for the best and safest recovery outcome.

Is LASIK Eye Surgery Safe?

LASIK eye surgery is considered safe and has a high success rate for most patients, but like any surgical procedure, it carries potential risks and complications and the possibility of needing additional enhancements. It is crucial to consult with one of our qualified eye surgeon in our network to assess your individual suitability for LASIK and discuss any concerns you may have.

Who is a Candidate for LASIK in Chicago?

LASIK candidates should have a stable prescription for at least one to two years and be in good overall health with healthy eyes. Additionally, corneal thickness, pupil size, and age are factors considered by eye care professionals. It’s essential to consult with an experienced LASIK.com, ophthalmologist or optometrist for a comprehensive examination to determine individual eligibility for LASIK.

What Vision Errors Does LASIK Correct?

LASIK is primarily used to correct common refractive errors, including nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. The procedure reshapes the cornea to improve the way light is focused onto the retina, thereby reducing or eliminating the need for glasses or contact lenses.

What people are saying in Chicago

This place is great!! Loved the staff, all so very friendly, had a great experience. Came in for my evaluation and didn’t think I’d be a candidate for LASIK. I was surprised to say the least, so when they said I could have the procedure done that same day, I wasn’t mentally prepared for it. Thankfully they’re very understanding and scheduled me for the week after. Now I’m here for my post appointment and what…

I just had my lasik done yesterday. At my follow up appointment today I had 20/15 vision. Such a great experience. All the ladies up front were so nice and helpful and the doctors were all great! Definitely recommend to anyone. It's really life changing after wearing glasses and contacts for so many years. I was definitely nervous but it really was not bad at all.

Came in for a consultation and a week later had lasik for my astigmatism. I had varying prescription per eye and still qualified for the procedure. Everything was quick and smooth. The healing is just as they mention, the first day it's completely normal to have an itching and burning sensation but goes away after a nap. The office was very professional and attentive. The doctors addressed all questions and were very forthcoming on expectations.…

Best 40th birthday present to myself! So glad I did it! Doctors and nurses were all wonderful, kind, and informative. No issues! I can’t believe I can see so well without contacts or glasses! I didn’t think this was an option for me because I had astigmatism, but that’s fixable now with lasik and absolutely more affordable than I thought it would be! Definitely recommend!!!

Was very easy all the way through. Consultation was a 5 minute wait and about 20 minutes long. Procedure day was about 45 minute wait and was about a 15 minute procedure. My procedure ended at 5 pm and I was awake and back to work the next day at 4 am. Lightly agitated. Felt like an eyelash in my eye. Doctor and his staff were very nice and helpful! Highly recommend. 3 days later…

I had a great experience here. I came in on a Wednesday for my consultation on Wednesday and had the surgery on Friday. Dr. Person did a fantastic job. Honestly I was terrified the entire time, but I didn't feel any pain only pressure on my eyes and just some uncomfortableness due to the things they use to keep your eyes open. The entire process only took about 15 minutes even though it felt like…

From the moment I walked in the whole staff was inviting and accommodating. Full of nerves, I went through the checkup/evaluation/ approval process and decided to get my procedure done the same day. From the Techs to the Dr. to the surgeon, everyone was amazing and caring and thoughtful and extremely informative. The procedure was painless and fast. Even when feeling any discomfort the staff was quick to alleviate that discomfort and proceeded in a…

Had a great experience at The LASIK Vision Institute! The process was very smooth and the staff members thoroughly answered all the questions I had. Doctor McGlothan was very friendly and calm, which made me feel comfortable during the surgery. Surgery was quick too, the technology is amazing! Update: Over one year later, my vision is still excellent (20/20) and I’m truly happy with the results. Thank you Doctor McGlothan and all the team members…

Amazing staff. Incredible experience. Would recommend 1000%. I wish I would have done it sooner. The whole process was smooth and easier than expected. The staff was incredible from the front desk to the procedure room. They made me feel safe and comfortable like I had been a patient for years. Dr. Probst was thorough and supportive. Cannot express how incredible the whole process was. Look no further than this office.

I really don’t know where to start. I called last minute to get into a consultation they were able to get me in. Once I got there the girls at the front desk welcomed me and asked me my name. Once I was finished checking in I got to chatting with the girls up front, such a great group and very down to earth. Went in for my exam being a little nervous about dilating…

I was very nervous coming into the surgery but every staff member made me feel comfortable and made sure I was aware of everything that was going to happen. It has been less than 24 hours since I’ve had the surgery and my eyesight is amazing already! I would highly recommend this surgery and office!

Reviews reflect individual experiences. As with all medical procedures, individual results will vary, and anyone considering LASIK should speak with a doctor.  A review of scientific articles published between 2008 and 2015 published in the Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery found that 99.5% (59,503/59,833) of LASIK treated eyes addressed in the literature achieved post-operative acuity better than 20/40
