Is there a chance of permanent dry eyes after laser eye surgery?

The feeling of dry eyes is a regular occurrence for the first few months after the treatment. How long you will suffer from this depends, among other things, on how your body will react to this and which treatment method you choose and your activities / activities during the day. If you follow the drip protocol drawn up by us and drip well with artificial tears, you will suffer the least from dry eyes.

You can also take extra omega 3 capsules, from 2 weeks before the treatment until 6 months after the treatment. Research shows that omega 3 has a positive effect on the stability of the tear film, reducing the risk of dry eyes.

Getting permanently drier eyes than you had before treatment is a small risk from laser eye surgery.
