Can I wear contact lenses after laser eye surgery?
Following laser eye surgery, most patients will find that their vision has improved to the point where they no longer need glasses or contact lenses. Some individuals may still require a lens prescription for activities like reading or driving at night, but in those instances most prefer to simply keep a pair of glasses handy. The general rule is that if you were comfortable wearing contact lenses prior to laser vision correction, you can still wear them after surgery. At CLEARLY LASIK, we want our laser eye surgery patients to achieve the best possible results. If you still need your contacts to see well after refractive surgery at one of our vision correction centers, we may be able to do a second LASIK procedure to further improve your results.
