Hi! Did you take any pain meds before leaving the hospital?

@Prosperous-wt7so Год назад

Had mine done on Thursday morning. I was overthinking it,such a big baby lol! It was painless and so simple. They stated I would have pain after the procedure but it's going on 72 hours (it's now Saturday morning) and absolutely no pain whatsoever. I guess everyone is different. My suggestion, as my Dr. stated, take your pain killer as soon as you get home after you eat. I did not experience any burning, no discomfort, the only thing I had to deal with was my eye kept running, it just was constantly tearing up. Everybody was concerned that I was in pain crying lol😅😄❤❤

@asifhussain7097 Год назад

Would you need to wear a patch. For photophobia after the surgery. I currently have Keratoconis and it’s significantly reduced my VA. I’m an optometry student so was always aware of the types of procedures to treat. But I’ve also started getting really immense photophobia. And was wondering if this is common after the surgery too.
