What’s the risk of laser eye surgery?
Laser eye surgery can undoubtedly improve your eyesight, but you should never ignore the potential side effects. Like all other surgeries, you may experience complications such as dry eyes, glare, double vision, eye infection, corneal flap problems, under-correction, over-correction, and more. Among these complications, dry eyes are the most common symptom 95%+ of patients reported having dry eyes after the procedure. The second and third most common side effects after laser eye surgery are glare and halos. They are eye problems that people experience when they see bright lights directly. Halos appear as bright circles surrounding a light source. Glare makes it difficult to see or makes your eye watery. [3]
