Should I get LASIK surgery done in summers?
Q: I am a 27 years old male planning to go for LASIK next month. Since it is summer season, humidity factor varies and also the dryness of eyes. Is it advisable for me to get LASIK done in summers?
A:With the latest advancements in technology, LASIK can be done at any time of the year and is not affected by summer, winter, humidity or dryness. It is a smooth quick procedure with a rapid recovery. Routine eye drops are prescribed to take care of dryness that may arise. You can go in for LASIK any time as per your convenience. A pre-operative evaluation will be performed to check your suitability for the procedure. However, during the procedure, the temperature and humidity need to be adequately controlled in the laser room as this could affect the outcome of the procedure.
