Can LASIK Treat Both Eyes on the Same Day?
If you’re thinking about LASIK, you may wonder: Will my surgeon do one eye at a time or both together? The idea of treating both eyes on the same day can sound surprising but in fact, it’s standard practice, and here’s why.
How LASIK works
LASIK reshapes the cornea, the clear front part of your eye, so light focuses correctly on the retina. The procedure takes only minutes per eye, and healing begins immediately.
At our hospital, the only one in Bosnia offering same-day LASIK, you can complete your consultation and procedure in one visit, and both eyes are usually treated at the same time.
Why Both Eyes Are Treated on the Same Day
There are clear benefits to treating both eyes in one session:
- Balanced vision: You won’t be stuck with one corrected eye and one uncorrected eye
- Convenience: Only one surgery day, one healing period, and fewer appointments
- Faster results: You can enjoy full binocular vision (using both eyes together) right away.
Is it safe?
Yes. Modern LASIK technology makes same-day treatment of both eyes safe and effective. Each eye is treated individually with sterile equipment, so there is no increased risk of infection or complications.
When Might Only One Eye Be Treated?
In some cases, your surgeon may recommend doing one eye at a time, for example if:
- You have different eye conditions that need closer monitoring.
- You and your surgeon agree it’s best to test one eye first.
But for most healthy patients, both eyes are treated together.
Recovery When Both Eyes Are Treated
Recovery is usually smooth:
- Blurred or hazy vision for the first 24 hours.
- Rapid improvement within 1–2 days.
- Most people can return to work and driving quickly, with both eyes adjusting together.
Same-day LASIK advantage
Because our hospital offers consultation and surgery on the same day, you could be approved and treated in just hours. That means less time off work, fewer visits, and faster freedom from glasses or contacts.
