Can I do LASIK after cataract surgery on the same day?

Doctor's Answer

No. However, if you are talking about different eyes, then yes.

Some patients have a cataract in one eye and short-sightedness in the other eye. You can do cataract surgery in one eye, what we call Anisometropia and then if you want to do LASIK in the other eye, that's ok.
