They are very helpful as they prevent your tears from leaving the eye. You would normally need it for 3 - 6 months only. You would normally recover by 3 - 6 months after LASIK surgery.
The plugs can be collagen in nature and are temporary, being fitted 3 monthly.
There is a permanent option where the plug is silicone, lasting longer ( for many years without needing to be changed ). This option is Medisave and Medishield claimable.
If you are interested in their prices, please let me know and I can provide more information to you.
Thank you.
