My recovery was interesting because my left and right eye healed at a very different pace.
Your vision at 5 days is going to be... non-optimal. Yes, the protective lens comes off usually by 5 days but that's purely because the epithelium should have grown back by then.
I saw 20/25 on my left eye from day 2 but saw 20/80 on my right eye around the same time frame. It also was super hazy even after the lens came off. I was afraid that I would need a "touch-up". The first week is all about epithelium recovery so you won't be able to see much or see things well. I personally had to zoom in everything in low brightness and even then reading was a struggle.
Second week I think is where the "interesting recovery" happens. You start seeing less weird artifacts from surgery (starbursts, halos, dry eyes, etc if you have them) and the vision seems to band quite a bit. I was able to see more comfortably and was willing to go outside (with shades though).
By 4th week+ - All the artifacts have pretty much gone away aside from occasional dry eyes. I'm in east coast right now where it's super dry and cold so I'm sure that also plays a role too.
Here's my prescription before surgery:
Sphere, Cylinder, Axis: R -2.50 -1.75 172 L -2.75 -1.75 8
No info or corneal thickness but it was super thick according to my ophthalmologist and was a candidate for PRK, LASIK, and SMILE.
