Just after the femtosecond laser surgery, the patient’s eyes may have temporary blurred vision, and it is not recommended that the patient walk on his own to avoid falling, etc. He should be accompanied by his family.
Femtosecond laser surgery is a commonly used treatment for myopia, in which a femtosecond laser is used to cut corneal tissue in order to correct myopia. After femtosecond laser surgery, because of the inflammatory reaction can lead to corneal edema, at this time the patient can not see things clearly. If the patient walks on his/her own, he/she is prone to fall.
Therefore, it is recommended that patients should be accompanied and cared for by family members after femtosecond laser surgery. Generally speaking, with the corneal edema subsiding in about 1 week after the operation, the patient’s vision will gradually return to normal and he can walk by himself.
It is recommended that patients should follow the doctor’s instructions for care after femtosecond laser surgery, have regular checkups, and consult the doctor in time when discomfort occurs.
