Before the treatment day
Attend the recommended evaluation and provide an accurate medical and medicine history. Follow the clinic’s instructions on contact-lens discontinuation, eye products and any prescribed medicines. Do not invent your own schedule from internet advice.
Plan travel home, time for early follow-up and help if dilatation or visual blur is expected.
Arrival and preoperative checks
The team confirms identity, the planned procedure and relevant measurements. You can ask final questions about consent, aftercare and costs. Avoid wearing eye products if the clinic has asked you not to.
You should not feel pressured to proceed if something remains unclear. Elective treatment can be postponed.
Numbing drops and laser steps
Numbing drops are normally used. A device helps keep the eye open, and you may be asked to look at a target light. In LASIK, a flap is created, the excimer laser reshapes the cornea and the flap is repositioned.
You may notice pressure, dimming, sounds or an odour; experiences differ. The team explains what is happening and how to cooperate.
Observation and the journey home
After the procedure, the team may check the eyes and review drops, protection and warning symptoms. Vision can be blurry or fluctuating at first. Arrange for someone else to drive; do not assume you can safely travel alone.
Keep the contact details for urgent clinical concerns. A website form is not an emergency channel.
Follow-up is part of treatment
Attend the visits advised by your surgeon so healing, vision and any complications can be monitored. Use medicines exactly as prescribed and ask before restarting products, exercise or activities that could expose the eyes to impact or contamination.
