Have you been thinking about getting rid of your glasses or contact lenses? Maybe you've already heard about the Flow3 laser procedure. But you still have a question about the recovery – will your eyes become more sensitive to light after the procedure?
And that's completely justified! If you're already thinking about this, it means you're ready to make a more informed decision.
What is Flow3?
At KSA Eye Center, we offer the Flow3 procedure – a state-of-the-art, incision-free and touch-free laser treatment that reshapes the surface of your eye so that light can correctly focus onto the retina. No cuts, no instruments touching the eye. Just precise and gentle correction.
The procedure is suitable for people aged 18–45 who want to get rid of glasses or contact lenses. It is safe, effective, and performed by our experienced medical team.
Is Light Sensitivity Normal After Flow3?
Yes. After the procedure, your eyes will immediately begin to recover. During this time, it is normal to experience:
- Sensitivity to bright light.
- Blurry or hazy vision.
- A feeling of dryness or a sensation similar to a tiny grain of sand in the eyes.
- Mild discomfort.
This simply means your eyes are doing their job – they are healing.
How Long Does the Sensitivity Last?
Light sensitivity usually lasts for a couple of days. By the end of the first week, most people feel significantly better and return to their normal routine. During this time, sunglasses can be very helpful, especially when outdoors in the sunlight.
Your eyes will become less sensitive each day, and your vision will gradually become clearer.
What Can You Do During Recovery?
KSA Eye Center supports you every step of the way, but here are a few simple tips:
- Give your eyes plenty of rest, especially during the first few days.
- Avoid bright light and screens.
- Wear sunglasses.
- Use eye drops as instructed.
- Do not drive until your vision is clear.
Our follow-up checks help ensure that everything is progressing as planned. We are here for you before, during, and after the procedure.
