Your vision may take as long as six months to stop changing after surgery, particularly problems with glare, starbursts, halos, or light sensitivity. Here’s a general timeline:
- Days one to three: itching, burning, mild pain and discomfort, tearing
- First week: hazy, blurred vision and sensitivity to light
- Weeks one to four: dry eye, glare, trouble with night driving
- First six months: changes in vision and regular checkups
