How Long After Lasik Eye Surgery Will the Eyes Be Recovered Enough for Driving?

The average person is able to drive within the first few days after Lasik surgery. Some people, especially during the first postoperative month, will notice glare or haloes around lights at night. This does not usually interfere with driving. Of course, every patient is unique and some people may have a postoperative recovery which is different than the average experience.
 

Most patients can drive the first day after surgery because LASIK patients heal very quickly!  That is one of the great benefits of LASIK over PRK.

There can be no guarantee as to the result of LASIK surgery, but the vast majority of patients see well enough to drive the morning after their LASIK procedure.  My wife had surgery at 6 PM and saw well enough to drive the next morning.  I have had pilots fly planes the next day and I performed surgery the day after my LASIK.
