Who’s a Good Candidate for Laser Eye Surgery?

Laser eye surgery isn’t right for everyone. During your consultation, we assess key factors like your eye health, prescription stability, and lifestyle needs. You may be a good candidate if:

Your eyes are healthy and free from disease
Your prescription has been stable for at least one year
Your corneas are the right shape and thickness
You’re over 18 and in overall good health
You’re not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
You understand that results vary and may still need glasses for certain tasks

Our job is to give you clear answers, not just the green light. If laser surgery is not the best option for you, we’ll guide you toward safe, effective alternatives.

What to Expect at Your Consultation

Your laser surgery consultation is part eye exam, part conversation. We’ll take a close look at your eye health, visual needs, and any potential risks. We’ll also review your lifestyle and goals to help you decide if laser eye surgery is the right fit.

You can expect to:

Receive clear pre- and post-op care recommendations
Get a thorough eye exam
Learn about the types of laser surgery (like LASIK or PRK)
Understand what results you can reasonably expect
Ask questions and share any concerns

Preparing for Surgery

If you’re a good candidate and choose to move forward, we’ll help you get ready by:

Explaining the surgical process in detail
Outlining what to expect before, during, and after surgery
Reviewing your medical history
Scheduling post-operative check-ins
Advising you on how to care for your eyes leading up to surgery

You’ll also need to arrange for a ride home after surgery and ensure your environment is ready for a restful recovery.

Supporting You After Surgery

Your care doesn’t end when the procedure does. We provide post-operative monitoring to make sure your healing stays on track. You’ll return for follow-ups so we can check your vision, watch for any complications, and answer questions as you recover.

Laser eye surgery is a big decision, and you don’t have to make it alone. Our team at Cowichan Eyecare in Langford, Duncan, Chemainus, Cobble Hill, and Lake Cowichan is here to help you explore your options and guide you through the process with confidence.
