We assume that the corneal healing period after a laser vision correction surgery lasts approximately one month. During this time, vision changes/fluctuations may occur and you may experience eye fatigue more quickly. It would therefore be unwise to drive a vehicle until your eyesight stabilises. It is definitely not allowed to drive before the first follow-up examination, which is scheduled a day or a week after the procedure, depending on the selected correction method.
As to your return to work, you can find more information in an article on our website.
The course of the convalescence period largely depends on the correction method selected for the procedure, and the choice of the method is determined by the measurements taken during the qualifying examination. Once the method has been chosen, it will be easier for you to plan the convalescence period. If necessary, the doctor will provide you with an appropriate ZUS ZLA sick leave certificate.
