LASER Basics: 10 Steps to Visual Freedom

NOT INTERESTED 


Maybe you're not a candidate. Maybe you have no vision problems. At this point LASIK is just not a thought that has entered your mind.

JUST WONDERING 


You'd be lying if you said the thought hadn't crossed your mind. You're not sure you're a candidate, but you'd like to know more about costs, outcomes, risks and benefits.

ALMOST READY 


You've been educated and are fairly convinced you'd like to have the surgery within the next two years.

COMPREHENSIVE EYE HEALTH AND VISION EXAM 


Our doctors will determine whether you're a good candidate. We'll discuss the procedure and provide more information about its costs, financing, risks and benefits.

PRE-SURGICAL TESTING 


Our doctors will make sure everything is on target for you to have the best possible outcome. Special testing and detailed discussions are provided and all of your questions are answered.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR 


Our team will prepare you for surgery with pre-op instructions, coordination of all medication and final preparations, and address any final questions.

TODAY'S THE DAY 


Most people notice a significant vision improvement immediately!

THE NEXT DAY 


We need to ensure that you are healing properly. Expect to come for post-op visits at one day and one week after your surgery. Protection with sunglasses is important at this time.

LET THE SUN SHINE! 


Our doctors will be checking to see how you're healing in this 4-12 week phase. If an enhancement to improve vision might be needed it will be discussed now.

ONGOING FOLLOW-UP 


Hopefully you are enjoying visual freedom. But eye care does not end with your surgical procedure. Yearly comprehensive exams with our doctors still are essential as we monitor your eye health.
