The most important question is how is your vision in your eyes? If it is good then you probably did not cause serious damage. If however your vision is poor or worse then you need to see your surgeon asap. If the vision is good, tearing is improving and you don't have any pain or thick yellow or green discharge then you may be ok to watch it for two days to see if it resolves on it's own. If otherwise then you need to call and see your surgeon.
You are probably fine, especially if your vision hasn't changed. If there is any doubt, or if you have persistent watering, eye redness, eye pain or vision changed you should be checked immediately.
As an MMA fighter, you should consider a surface treatment such as LASEK which in my opinion would be safer for you than LASIK. Yes, with LASIK a blow to the eye could dislodge your flap, even after 6 months. With LASEK, there is no flap, and you can completely avoid this concern.
Approximately 1-2% of patients who have custom Intralase LASIK will require refinement procedures due to their individual response to the excimer laser treatment. It is our policy to wait three months before refinement in order to assure refractive stability.
Highly unlikely the edible affected your healing after LASIK, though your eye may have been slightly more red than usual.
