Frequently Asked Questions
What does surgical co-management mean?
What are the signs that I may need cataract surgery?
Blurred or cloudy vision, increased glare, difficulty driving at night, and trouble reading can be signs of cataracts. A comprehensive eye examination can determine how cataracts are affecting your vision and whether surgery should be considered.
How can I find out if LASIK is right for me?
LASIK may be an option for people with a stable prescription, healthy corneas, and suitable overall eye health. We perform a detailed assessment and can discuss whether LASIK or another vision correction option may be appropriate.
Will I need to arrange my own eye surgeon?
Our optometrists can evaluate your eyes and provide a referral to a trusted ophthalmologist when surgery is recommended. We can also help coordinate your care before and after the procedure.
How long does it take to recover from cataract or LASIK surgery?
Recovery depends on the type of procedure and your individual healing process. Many LASIK patients experience improved vision within a few days, while cataract surgery may require several weeks for complete recovery. Follow-up visits allow us to monitor your progress.
