Yes, the eyes do tend to become drier after LASIK surgery and less so with surface ablation surgeries such as PRK and LASEK. The reason is due to temporary corneal nerve damage from the cutting of the LASIK flap. When a cornea is dry the surface becomes less regular and less clear and therefore the vision will often be adversely affected.
