Marijuana causes blood-shot eyes and a decrease in pressure in the eye which sometimes makes it an useful treatment for glaucoma. My question is, will it have any negative effect on a LASIK eye? Should you wait a specific amount of time after the surgery to smoke marijuana?
thanks

Since marajuana dries out the mucus membranes as well as the eyes I think I would wait until everything is healed before I messed around with that. By the way, just in case your interested, pot lowers the pressure in the eye by constricing the pupil which allows more aqueous humor to get out.
