Your Visit

Before You Arrive

Prepare for a Smooth Surgery Day

All of our procedures are same-day outpatient procedures. A little preparation helps make your visit go as smoothly as possible.

Our Process

What Happens During Your Visit?

Your visit is designed to keep you informed, comfortable, and prepared every step of the way.

1

Check-In

Arrive at your scheduled time with your ID and insurance card. Complete your pre-op questionnaire through the patient portal before surgery; you’ll receive your portal login invitation one week before your procedure.

2

Pre-Op Preparation

Our team reviews your information, confirms consents, starts IV access, and prepares your operative eye with drops and any needed pre-op care.

3

Meet Your Care Team

You will speak with your surgeon and anesthesia provider before the procedure and have time to ask final questions.

4

Procedure & Anesthesia

In the operating room, monitored anesthesia care (MAC) medication is given through your IV to help you relax. It does not put you fully to sleep, while topical numbing drops help keep you comfortable during the procedure.

5

Recovery & Discharge

You recover while medications wear off, then leave with your support person. Patients are taken to the front entrance by wheelchair per policy.
