Clarity of Vision After Lasik. Does Vision Keep Improving Over Time?

perkN
I am almost 4 weeks out from Lasik (intralase/allegretto) and was -8.00 in both eyes w/ some astigmatism. Compared to before, I should be grateful that I can actually see without the need for contacts or glasses. However I am a little concerned I might be undercorrected. I was out yesterday w/ a friend and they have a very small prescription ( < -1.00) and I tried on their glasses and with them on, street signs and people's faces across the street were clearer. Does clarity improve over time?
