What We Do

When you come in for a consultation, a friendly face will be here to greet you. Your eye doctor will evaluate your eyes and discuss your vision goals. If you have any questions along the way, don’t hesitate to ask.

Preoperative Evaluation

If you have no signs or symptoms that could affect the results of the procedure, we will go ahead with a preoperative evaluation. This evaluation includes:

Counselling on refractive surgery options
Eye dominance testing
Review of your eye history
Medical evaluation of the cornea and eye
Current refraction status

If a decision is made to proceed with the surgery, a consultation will be set up with the surgeon.

Postoperative Care

Postoperative care will be done by our eye doctors. Your follow-up visits will monitor healing and evaluate if sunglasses, reading glasses, or enhancement laser procedures are necessary.

Types of Corrective Eye Surgery

We want to find the ideal solution for your vision. We partner with surgeons that suit your unique needs and perform quality procedures.

LASIK

LASIK, short for laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis, is one of the most well-known refractive surgeries available. It’s popular because of the quick and minimal downtime, and improved vision can be noticed as soon as the next day.

An ophthalmologist will use a laser to change the shape of your cornea to improve the way light focuses in the eye.

LASIK can be used to treat myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism.

PRK

Photorefractive keratectomy, or PRK, is another laser procedure that can help improve your vision.

A pulsing beam of ultraviolet light is used to change the shape of your cornea. Light will focus better in your eye, making it an effective treatment for refractive errors.

PRK is an ideal treatment for someone with thinner corneas who may not be a suitable candidate for LASIK.

ICL

An implantable collamer lens (ICL) is a type of artificial lens that gets surgically placed in the eye to help reduce the need for glasses and contact lenses. This corrective surgery treats myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism.
Your surgeon will implant the ICL between the eye’s natural lens and the iris (the coloured part of your eye). This surgery does not require your natural lens to be removed.
ICL eye surgery takes around 20–30 minutes to complete.
