It's been 10 months since my PRK surgery but I still need to use lubricant drops. Is it okay to stop using them now or should I keep going for a few more months? How long do people usually need these drops after PRK?

After PRK surgery, it‚Äôs common to continue using lubricating drops for several months until the eye fully stabilizes. Most people stop using them after 6 months, but check with your doctor for personalized advice.
