LASIK Surgery | 5 steps To VisionPresbyopia Treatment | Cataract & Implant Surgery

 

5 steps to vision without glasses or contact lenses

Step 1: Call us at (65) 6470 3366 to request more information or ask questions

Step 2: Attend the Initial Screening

Before any treatment, Parkway Eye Centre will make an extensive assessment of your eyes. This provides the data used to plan your surgery in detail.

Step 3: Prepare for treatment

Feeling nervous, anxious or excited before surgery is a completely natural, completely normal response. So firstly, do not worry about being worried!
Just follow this checklist below, try to relax as much as you can, and if you have any questions please just ask — we know that no matter how trivial your question may seem, the answer is important to you.
  • Depending on your occupation, you may need to arrange to be away from work for up to four days following LASIK. Please speak to an optometrist regarding your individual case.
  • Do not wear perfume or cologne; they can contain alcohol, as can hair products such as hair spray or mousse.
  • Remove all eye makeup a minimum of 24 hours before surgery. Please ensure your face and eyes are free from all makeup on the day of surgery.
  • Wear comfortable clothing and avoid anything that may generate lint such as wool.
  • Arrange transport, you will not be able to drive yourself home and you may find public transport to be tiring.
  • If you are travelling, far you may find it more convenient to arrange local accommodation. We are happy to help you arrange this.
  • Avoid alcohol 24 hours before and 48 hours after your surgery, as this tends to dehydrate your eyes.
  • Please do not bring young children or infants with you to the clinic
  • Just before your procedure, we will ask you to sign your informed consent form and pay the balance of your treatment fee.
  • Bring your diary if you would like to make your aftercare appointments whilst you are at the clinic.

Step 4: Have treatment
  • The duration of your visit will be approximately 2 hours after which you will be free to go home.
  • It is wise to leave plenty of time for your journey to the surgery. Aim to arrive in good time and be as relaxed as possible.

Step 5: Aftercare
  • Your aftercare is as important as the procedure itself, and it is vital that you give your eyes time to recover. All the aftercare explained here is included in your fee.
  • Parkway Eye Centre will provide you with sunglasses to protect your eyes after the operation. Other varieties do not provide adequate protection so it is important that you wear those we provide.
  • You will need to return to our clinic within 24 hours after surgery for your first (mandatory) aftercare appointment.
  • Following this first aftercare appointment, you will need to make three further visits to Parkway Eye Centre.
