Can LASIK be performed on both eyes at the same time?

Since visual improvement is almost immediate, and the healing time is minimal, LASIK is performed on both eyes during the same procedure. Each eye is done separately, with the laser being used for less than 60 seconds per eye. If the patient prefers to have one eye done at a time, it is certainly possible, but it is rare for patients to take this route.
