Dr. Combs will conduct an evaluation to determine a patient’s suitability for a refractive procedure such as LASIK, PRK or Clear Lens Exchange. This evaluation includes refractive assessment, determination of prescription correction options and overall ocular health. Once a patient is deemed a candidate, Dr. Combs can provide education about the surgery, including potential risk and benefits. After surgery, Dr. Combs will monitor healing and visual outcomes and manage any complications that may arise.
The process for any refractive surgery is outlined below.
- Pre-operative Assessment (varies, typically 2 appointments)
- Patient Education
- Referral to Eye Surgeon
- Post-op Care
- Follow-up Visits (varies, typically 4 appointments)
- Management of Complications, if any
