What to Expect From Your LASIK Procedure
Your LASIK journey begins with a comprehensive consultation, including corneal topography, wavefront imaging, and a review of your visual goals. On procedure day, you’ll receive numbing drops to ensure comfort, and both eyes are typically treated in under 30 minutes.
Most patients notice significantly improved vision within hours. Over the next 1–2 days, clarity continues to sharpen. Dr. Cohen personally oversees every stage of the process—from pre-op measurements to post-op care.

Frequently Asked Questions LASIK
How long do LASIK results last?
For most patients, results are permanent. Some may need enhancement procedures later in life due to age-related changes.
Is LASIK painful?
No. The procedure is quick and virtually painless, thanks to numbing drops. You may feel mild pressure during treatment.
Can LASIK treat astigmatism?
Yes. LASIK is highly effective at correcting both regular and irregular astigmatism.
When can I resume normal activities?
Most people return to work and light activity within 24 hours. Full recovery typically occurs within a few days.
Will I need reading glasses later?
Possibly, especially if you’re over 40. Options like monovision LASIK can help reduce this need.
