Frequently Asked Questions


27.   Will there be bleeding?

Generally there is no bleeding.

Chronic contact lens wearing causes tiny blood vessels to form at the rim of the cornea. The edge of the LASIK flap can transect these blood vessels and cause some slight bleeding.

-   Is LASIK painful?
-   Will I look different? Will my eye have a scar after the procedure?
-   What are some side-effects of surgery?
