Following implantable collamer lens surgery, seeing circles or halos around lights may occasionally occur during the healing phase, particularly at night, and it may progressively become better over a period of weeks to months. Following eye treatments, some dryness or heaviness may also develop; Genteal Gel and Systane Eye Drops may aid with comfort and dryness. However, you should get in touch with your eye surgeon right away to rule out conditions like elevated eye pressure or lens-related disorders if the halos are getting worse, your vision gets hazy, you experience redness, intense discomfort, headaches, or nausea.

Persistent symptoms of Dry Eye Syndrome can sometimes occur due to long screen time, reduced blinking, or environmental factors. In addition to Omega-3 supplements, you can try using preservative-free lubricating eye drops regularly, follow the 20-20-20 rule while using screens (every 20 minutes look 20 feet away for 20 seconds), take frequent breaks, and keep your eyes well hydrated. Using a humidifier and limiting exposure to air conditioning or dust may also help.

Years after LASIK, occasional eye edema is typically caused by allergies, dry eyes, eye strain, or mild infections rather than the procedure itself. See an eye doctor to rule out illnesses like blepharitis or sinus-related problems if swelling is painful, frequent, or interferes with vision.
