Preservative or non-preservative drops, 1 week post LASIK, is there a difference?

Hi I have been using non-preservative free eye drops (the REFRESH brand) for about 1 week now. I had my LASIK procedure about 1 week ago. Does it matter if I use these as opposed to the preservative-free ones? What can happen if I use the non-preservative free ones?
