We encourage you to first consult your optometrist or referring doctor as they will be able to advise you on the recommended treatment plan or surgical intervention required.
Most eye surgeries are performed under local anaesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the procedure. Some discomfort may occur during recovery, but it is usually mild and temporary.
The duration varies by procedure. Many surgeries, like cataract removal, take 15–30 minutes. More complex surgeries may up to 3 hours.
Recovery depends on the type of surgery, the patient’s overall health, and other related factors. Your surgeon will provide a detailed recovery plan.
Yes, you’ll need someone to drive you home after the procedure, as your vision may be temporarily impaired.
Like any surgery, there are risks, but complications are rare. Your surgeon will discuss potential risks and how we minimise them with advanced techniques and thorough pre-surgical evaluations.
Candidates should generally have stable vision, good eye health, and meet specific corneal thickness and prescription criteria. A thorough evaluation will determine your eligibility.
It depends on the surgery and your condition. Many patients experience reduced dependence on glasses, though some may still need them for certain tasks like reading.
Coverage varies by medical aid providers and procedure. Medically necessary surgeries, like cataract removal or glaucoma treatment, are often covered, but elective procedures like LASIK may not be.
Your surgeon will provide specific instructions, which may include stopping certain medications, arranging transportation, and avoiding makeup or lotions around the eyes on the day of surgery.
Follow-up appointments ensure your eyes are healing properly. These appointments will be schedule by the doctor’s practice staff. You may need to use prescribed eye drops and avoid strenuous activities for a few weeks.
