I am a working professional and can’t take long leave from the office. How soon after SMILE LASIK can someone return to computer work, driving, or other daily activities without affecting recovery?

Many patients return to light computer work and driving within 1–2 days. Strenuous activity, swimming, or dusty environments are usually avoided for 1–2 weeks. Vision continues to stabilize over the first month, but normal daily tasks are generally safe soon after surgery. Planning your workload with short breaks and following post-op instructions helps ensure smooth recovery. Most professionals find they can continue work quickly without compromising results.
