I have eye swelling and had LASIK surgery in 2011. Occasionally, my eyes swell, and I'd like to know why.

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.
