There was an article in the Daily Mail "Tempted by Laser Surgery?" back in November 2010.

The article talks through a specific story of Lois Roberts who had laser eye surgery and has subsequently suffered from dry eyes, floaters and poor night vision.

She commented on the article stating 'I just wanted to confirm that I do NOT regret having laser eye surgery. I was shocked when I saw a huge picture of myself saying that laser eye surgery has ruined my sight! This is not true. For me personally, I don't find the dry eyes and floaters a big problem, yes they're annoying but hey it's worth it for me.'

Some people do have problems after their laser eye surgery which is what Lois experienced. Dry eyes is caused when the eye heals and generally improves within a few weeks of surgery.

Floaters are deposits in the vitreous humor in your eye and these speckles can appear in your eye after laser eye surgery but generally clear up as the eye heals.

With any surgery there are risks associated with the surgery, and here at Visualase we ensure that our patients have the time with their consultant to talk through their fears and worries before the surgery.

We offer all our patients a free one hour consultation with your surgeon who would be performing the surgery.
