How is the eye anesthetized?
Will I experience any pain during or after the LASIK surgery?


You will receive a tranquilizer and a pain reliever. Your eye will be anesthetized with eye drops, there are no injections. The laser surgery is free of pain. After the LASIK surgery, you will only feel a foreign body sensation with itching and an increase in tears. 2 or 3 hours after surgery, you will not feel any discomfort.
