Working on the computer after laser eye surgery?!
Question: I just got PKR eye surgery. It is a different procedure than Lasek surgery but same outcome. I got it a week ago and am now back to work. I work at the computer all day. Is this bad for my eyes?

Working on the computer will cause no permanent damage to your eyes. It can cause eye fatigue. I assume you were near sighted prior to your PRK procedure, so you may need to focus more than before to see your monitor clearly. If you are over age 40 you may need extra help for things up close. This happens to everyone and it's called presbyopia. LASIK and PRK can do nothing for presbyopia!
Why are you asking here? Ask the guy who did the surgery!!! He is the only one who can give you the correct answer as he did the procedure and knows all the ins and outs of it.
