LASIK surgery
It's been a month after Lasik surgery and even now I feel burning sensation in my eyes when I "continuously" read books for around half an hour. I do put ecomoist ultra eye drops four times a day. What else do I need to do?

Dry eye can sometimes persist for many months after an uneventful Lasik surgery . Use whatever lubricant eye drops suit you. Increase the frequency for more relief. Maskatieyeclinic Opposite Charni road station east , Mumbai
