We advise patients to not apply eye make-up for 3 days after Lasik. You certainly want to be careful when removing eye make-up during the first few weeks, and be careful about keeping it off the eyeball itself.
If you rub your eyelids after Lasik you could dislodge or wrinkle the corneal flaps that were created during your surgery and possibly cause permanent visual difficulties. When you apply or particularly remove makeup you should not rub horizontally on your upper eyelids. I am conservative and recommend no horizontal rubbing for one month after Lasik and after the month do not be real aggressive.
