Things to Know About LASIK Surgery

The Preparation On arrival you will be asked to sign a consent form , then you will be taken into one of our preparation rooms Your eyes will be cleaned and anesthetic eye drops will be instilled to numb your eyes When you are ready ,you will be escorted into the laser room and helped to lie down on the laser couch The doctor will ask you to open both eyes wide and an eyelid holder will be placed to prevent your eye from closing. If you do try to close your eye you will experience some discomfort. You will be asked to look at the blinking light, this light will disappear temporarily whilst the flap is made . Again the doctor will ask you to look at the blinking light. In less than a minute the laser will reshape your cornea and your vision will be corrected  ON THE DAY OF SURGERY Do have someone to pick you up ,as you will not be able to drive after surgery Arrival times of surgery will be confirmed one day before Don’t wear make-up, perfume,
