Enhancement Surgery Timing and
Lasik, Bladeless Lasik, PRK, etc.
When to have enhancement surgery will vary depending upon the type of refractive surgery and the reason for the need of additional surgery. We have a detailed article on enhancement surgery that may need to be reviewed. With conventional or custom wavefront Lasik, Bladeless Lasik, PRK, LASEK, and Epi-Lasik, most doctors wait three to six months after the first surgery, but can be performed earlier and much later. If your doctor wants to perform an enhancement, ask why s/he wants to do the enhancement in the timeframe suggested. |
