It is common for people who wear glasses and especially contact lenses, to have symptoms of glare or see halos or starbursts at night. When the pupil dilates at night in, peripheral light rays are scattered more before they reach the retina. It is this scattering that results in glare and halos.

These symptoms can become more irritating after Laser Eye Surgery.  The first month after treatment, some clients may see halos or a ghosting of images at night, but it should not interfere with their activities.   The symptoms will improve over the first 3 months and the vast majority correct themselves naturally within 6 months.  If the problem does continue, patients can be treated with weak prescription night glasses or eye drops at dusk that reduce the size of the pupil.
