Smoking marijuana after lasik surgery.

Question

Hi there! I'm just wondering how long would it take for me to not smoke weed after having a lasik surgery.I wouldn't mind taking a break from smoking even for a month for the sake of my eyes.Thanks in advance.

As you know, marijuana can lower the pressure within the eyes. Temporarily stopping marijuana might cause the pressure in the eyes to rise a little bit, which can affect the results a little bit. However, when you resume marijuana, and your eye pressure returns to its normal level, the eyes will change back as well. So it is best to just keep using marijuana as you always have. Of course, if you want to take a break, which might be good for you otherwise, do it -- regardless of whether you have Lasik or not.
