I had LASIK surgery about a year ago but still have dryness and pain in my eyes. I've been using gentle care drops and gel for the past year, though not regularly. Is this normal or should I be concerned about something else going on?

will the medical examiners be able to tell if i had lasik surgery done when i go for my recruitment tests i'm worried they might notice my eyes were corrected
During a recruitment medical exam, LASIK surgery typically won't be noticeable unless it's recent. Most examiners won’t detect past LASIK unless they specifically test for vision correction history.

Is a sensitive eye something that can be treated with medication or would it require surgery? I've been dealing with discomfort and wondering what the best treatment options are
With sensitive, irritated eyes, you want to be gentle and avoid touching them as much as possible—which isn't easy when they're itchy or painful. Cold compresses are great for reducing swelling and sensitivity, and Clear Eyes eye drops for itchy eyes, dry eyes or sensitive eyes can help bring relief
