When can I start wiping my eyes after LASIK surgery?

Q: I am a 24 years old male. I have undergone LASIK surgery for both eyes two weeks back. Can I wipe my eyes with towel and bare hands after bathing? In which position should I sleep?

A:After LASIK surgery, you can sleep in any position that you are comfortable. All you need to ensure is that you don't exert too much pressure on your eyes. As for washing, you can clean your eyes from outside Please don't rub them vigorously while washing them and don't let any shampoo/ soap enter your eyes.
