If you've decided to have eye surgery, you may be trying to decide when to have surgery to achieve optimal results. The recovery period is fairly short for most types of eye surgeries, which means you can have surgery at any time of year. However, you should consider your schedule and responsibilities to determine the best time to have eye surgery, such as your work responsibility, family responsibility. Moreover, you also take the help from your family and friends into consideration. Before you make an appointment for your eye surgery, you will also need to talk with an ophthalmologist to determine if there are any other factors that may influence your decision. For example, if your eyesight hasn't become stable and your vision is still changing, your eye doctor may suggest that you wait a little while before having surgery.
