I got SMILE LASIK in early February. I thought of it simply, but it is surgery, and from anesthesia to disinfection and so on, it really is a surgical procedure. I think the surgery time was within 10 minutes, and for the week after surgery, I had a hazy feeling, felt uncomfortable, and was worried too. From week 2, the hazy feeling disappeared, but the glare/halos continued, so when I look at bright lights in dark places, they look spread out and like that. I think the glare/halos can’t be helped, and dryness and things like that are similar to before surgery. I was originally around -5, and I’m satisfied with corrected vision of 1.0. Should I say it’s the kind of vision quality where you see the world while wearing contact lenses? It might even be better than lenses, and it hasn’t even been a month yet, but I’m satisfied without anything particular going on!
