We get quite a bit of questions from our LASIK patients and prospective LASIK patients that we enjoy answering. Some just come up A LOT so we thought it would be helpful to answer those really, really frequent questions in some mini blogs.
So let’s start with…
If I have Lasik, when can I go back to the gym?
There is a pretty short answer to this question.
With regard to exercise – there are two main goals after LASIK:
- Do NOT get any sweat in your eyes for the first week, and
- Avoid anything rubbing or bumping your eyes for the first 4 weeks
A couple other notable notes: Stay away from intense outdoor workouts with sawdust or mud.
Cardio lover? Are you a runner?
We asked Dr. Bennett Walton and he shared:
“Running outside is fine after a week, probably wear sunglasses to prevent anything from blowing into your eyes.”
