Day 1 to Day 3 – Initial Healing Begins

Mild discomfort, light sensitivity, and blurry vision are common. A bandage lens is placed to protect the healing cornea.

Day 4 to Day 7 – Surface Recovery

Discomfort reduces as the surface starts healing. Vision may still be hazy, and sensitivity can persist.

Week 2 –  Early Vision Improvement

The bandage lens is usually removed. Vision remains blurry but slowly begins to stabilise. Light activities are manageable.

Week 3 to Week 4 – Steady Progress

Irritation fades, and vision improves gradually. Follow-ups help monitor healing and corneal stability.

Month 2 & Beyond – Long-Term Recovery

Vision gets clearer over months. Full results may take 3–6 months as the cornea strengthens and stabilises.
