In class, my eyes feel almost like they are burning...if i put on my sunglasses it helps but feel like an idiot in class w/ them on...but who cares sometimes...sometimes it bothers me, sometimes it doesnt as much...but mostly just very bright lights...I know this is a common thing probably, but how long does it last? hopefully not forever haha.

Hey Scion,
I googled "light sensitivity post lasik surgery" and found this:
Light-sensitivity
Your eyes may be light sensitive and you may notice increased flare from lights when driving at night. Usually decreases over a few months.

But, you might want to call your doctor and just tell him you are concerned that your eyes are periodically sensitive to light and see what he says about it.

Scion,
I also found this website:

I don't know, or can't remember if you had the intralase procedure but, it appears as though that is one of the side effects of the procedure that can last 4-5 months. Go to the website and check it out if the intralase procedure is the one you had done. It doesn't seem to be anything to worry about.
