Before you decide to proceed with LEV your eye doctor will perform a complete dilated eye exam to be certain that you are a good candidate for the procedure. Once you and your doctor decide to schedule your procedure, you should perform the Lid Scrubs routine for at least 3 days immediately prior to your procedure. On arriving at the laser center, you will be greeted and taken on a brief tour of the facility to answer questions and ensure that you are comfortable. Before proceeding with the Laser Enhanced Vision Procedure, a final check of your eyes will be completed. Eyes to be treated are measured and mapped and the information is reviewed to detect and isolate any irregularities in the shape of the cornea.
Most patients dress casually and comfortably.
You are reminded not to wear make-up or fragrances. We encourage patients to bring a companion with them to see the Laser Enhanced Vision Procedure. Your companion may accompany you through the entire process. You will not be given a general anesthetic. In fact, the only mediations administered during the procedure are eye drops.
