What if I blink during LASIK?

By | November 16, 2014

In general, you won’t. If treated by a skilled surgeon he will allow your surgery to take place in a very relaxing atmosphere. You may be offered a medication by mouth to make you more comfortable.

During an eye laser surgery you will not feel any pain since your eyes will be made numb by the appropriate drops.

You will want to relax and cooperate, not blinking since you want a successful result. However, some lasers will automatically instantly shut off if your eye moves. Automatic shutoff.
