Swimming and Lasik don't mix for a few weeks after surgery, but in all cases your doctor needs to examine your eyes and approve going into the water. For obvious reasons, swimming in a private chlorinated pool is quite different from swimming in sea water or swimming in a public fresh water pond.

Makeup is a similar situation. Many are able to apply light eye makeup a week after Lasik, but your doctor needs to give you the okay.

The blurred vision can be caused by many things. You are very early in the healing process and with this small amount of information it is impossible to provide much more than a general guess. If you are near or past age 40, you may be dealing with the effects of presbyopia.

Temporary Lasik dry eye is relatively common.

There may be some corneal edema (inflammation) causing irregularities.

You may not be fully corrected or are regressing to full correction.

These and many other things can cause headaches and blurred vision. The best person to ask is the doctor who has examined your eyes.

You shouldn't be doing that stuff till like after 3 weeks, your eyes need time to adjust and you should be resting them and not be in the light so much
