The LASIK Consultation
A full and comprehensive consultation is the ONLY way to know if LASIK will be right for you. If you haven’t scheduled your Free LASIK Consultation because you aren’t sure what to expect or if you fear a sales pitch from our counselors, let us tell you exactly what you can expect during your consultation at Donelson Eye Associates.
Goal #1 – Your Peace of Mind
Almost every LASIK patient has concerns and questions about the procedure. Our first step is to find out what you are concerned about and then answer any and every question you have. We take special care to ensure you fully understand what happens during the procedure and what LASIK can do for you.
Goal #2 – Knowing Your Eyes
Once we have your questions answered, we want to know all the particulars of your eyesight. This will help us to know if you are a candidate for the procedure. This step begins by meeting one of our skilled technicians. We will do a brief screening that includes: a review of your medical history, complete a corneal map, and test corneal thickness.
Goal #3 – Reviewing Exam Results
This is when you’ll find out if you’re a good candidate for LASIK. Dr. Donelson will explain the test results and let you know if you’re a good candidate for LASIK or if another type of technology is more suitable. And that’s it. The entire purpose of the consultation is to determine IF you’re a good candidate.
If you’d like to schedule your procedure there and then, that’s fine with us too, or you can go home and come to a decision later. We’ve done our job of verifying that you’re a candidate – now it’s over to you to decide if you will have the procedure.
Our thorough and comprehensive exam process takes about 90 minutes.
If you are ready to schedule your consultation, give us a call today or schedule online.
