One of the side effects of Bakersfield lasik is halos around lights. Many people complain that after a few days after their lasik treatment and they go out dirivng during nighttime, they find it experience vision problems and on of these is that see lights as if they have halos around them. This is the reason why lasik surgeons advise patients not to drive duirng night because the headlights of the cars approaching them might make it hard for them to see the road ahead.

Most patients who undergone lasik report that after a few months, a halos and other night vision problems go away. Many patients use the public transportation for a while or ask somebody to drive for them during the night. Many patients feel afraid that the halos will not go away but this fear is unfounded. There are only a few patients whose halos do not go away.

If you are one of those patients who have undergone lasik surgery and are experiencing halos around lights during night, there is no need to panic. It is just normal considering that a flap was created in your eye’s cornea during the operation. It takes time for that cut to heal. Be patient because once the cut has healed, you’ll see and enjoy a perfect vision without any problems.

Marcus is one of the lasik patients who went back to his surgeon complaining about these vision problems. He had lasik surgeron a month before and he was complaining that he couldn’t drive back home at night after work. The surgeon tells him that he should wait for a few months. The surgeon also advised him to continue on following the after-operation instructions. After a few months, Marcus called up his Bakersfield lasik surgeon and happily told him that he doesn’t have halos around lights during nighttime.

Give your eyes enough time to heal. Remember that during the operation, the cut in your cornea was just left there to heal on its own. When we have a cut in our skin, it doesn’t heal overnight. It’s the same with our eyes after the operation. Be patient, continue to follow the after-operation instruction of your lasik surgeon and the vision problems will go away after a few weeks.
