Lasik And Weather

Recent research shows that weather can affect your Lasik surgery, resulting in an under-correction. The study showed that when the weather is hot and humid, the correction can be under by a quarter to a half of a unit, resulting in a slight blurring of the vision.


A solution to the under-correction is to increase the intensity of the laser slightly or briefly prolong the treatment time. For people seeking to keep their procedures as accurate as possible, Professional Eye Associates in Dalton, Georgia offer corrective surgery in climates that will not seriously affect their correction.
