How should I prepare for my laser eye surgery procedure?
On the day of your laser eye procedure, you should make time for a half-day visit to the clinic. This allows ample time for discussion with your optometrist or surgeon, as well as any final measurements that may need to be taken before your laser eye procedure commences.
Before your laser eye procedure, you can eat and drink normally since the surgery is performed under local anaesthetic. It's also advised that you wear loose, comfortable clothing and avoid wearing make-up, creams, mascara, eye shadow, eyeliner, deodorant and perfume on the day of your laser eye procedure.
In addition, if you wear soft contact lenses you should stop wearing them for at least one week prior to laser eye surgery, or one month if you wear rigid gas permeable lenses. This is because contact lenses can change the shape of your cornea, so it's important to allow time for it to return to its normal curvature before your laser eye procedure. Failure to adhere to this advice could affect the outcome of your surgery.
After your laser eye procedure, you will be unable to drive home, so be sure to make transport arrangements for the day.
