Normal results

he nature and severity of the problem, the skill of the surgeon performing the procedure, and the patient's general health and realistic expectations are among the factors that influence the outcome of laser surgery. Successful procedures can enable patients to:

  • feel better
  • look younger
  • enjoy longer, fuller, more active lives

A patient who is considering any kind of laser surgery should ask his doctor to provide detailed information about what the outcome of the surgery is expected to be, what the recovery process will involve, and how long it will probably be before he regains a normal appearance and can resume his normal activities.

Abnormal results

A person who is considering any type of laser surgery should ask his doctor to provide specific and detailed information about what could go wrong during the procedure and what the negative impact on the patient's health or appearance might be.

Lighter or darker skin may appear, for example, when a laser is used to remove sun damage or age spots from an olive-skinned or dark-skinned individual. This abnormal pigmentation may or may not disappear in time.

Scarring or rupturing of the cornea is uncommon, but laser surgery on one or both eyes can:

  • increase sensitivity to light or glare
  • reduce night vision
  • permanently cloud vision, or cause sharpness of vision to decline throughout the day
  • Signs of infection following laser surgery include:
  • burning
  • crusting of the skin
  • itching
  • pain
  • scarring
  • severe redness
  • swelling
