Can i wear coloured contacts after lenses? after eye heals? had lasik today.. dr said yes he doesn't see why not. i will however wait a month or so

Yes, once eye heals.: Once your doctor gives you the ok that the eye has healed after lasik surgery, you can use cosmetic (colored) contact lenses. The eye may be flatter after lasik so make sure that it is fit properly and that the eyes are properly lubricated while the contacts are in.
