A member asked:
Can the flap created by lasik femtosecond intralase surgery ever heal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
LASIK flaps: Typically do heal completely and are usually barely visible after this healing as taken place. If an eye is traumatized, the flap can be dislodged but typically this won't happen spontaneously.
