What does recovery from LTK involve?
The one advantage here is that this procedure does not involve any cutting or burning of the cornea. This means a very fast procedure with no downtime.
You will be given antibiotic and anti-inflammatory drops to prevent your eyes from becoming infected. Painkillers are available if you experience any pain or discomfort although this tends to be rare.
You will be required to attend the clinic the next day, just to check up on your progress. This will be followed by a series of regular check ups over the next few months.
