| The First Step
The first step is to set up a pre-procedure consultation:
- Are you a candidate?
- Let Dr. Gruber or Dr. Hartman answer your questions
- Learn as much as you can about laser vision correction
At your pre-procedure consultation, your doctor (not a nurse gathering information) will perform a thorough eye exam.
As part of the consultation Dr. Gruber
or Dr. Hartman will provide you with information on all aspects of laser vision correction. This will help you to understand what can reasonably expected from laser vision correction. We know that your most informed decison will come from what you can about the procedure and how it all relates to you.
During the pre-evaluation process we will carefully evaluate your eyes and answer all your questions.
If you decide to have the laser procedure, we'll tell you exactly what you need to do. Basically, you'll need to stop wearing contact lenses before your procedure, one week for soft lenses and four weeks for hard or gas permeable lenses...And if you're a good candidate, be ready to make it the last time you'll need either!
