Vision Correction Pre-Surgery Guidelines

Surgery Time: The procedure takes 1–1.5 hours. Surgery itself lasts about 5 minutes, but pre-surgery detailed exams add time.

Lens Usage Suspension:

• Soft lenses: Stop wearing 7 days prior.
• Hard lenses: Stop wearing 14 days prior.
• Orthokeratology lenses: Stop wearing 30 days prior.

No Self-Driving on Surgery Day: Driving is not allowed. Bring an escort or use public transportation.

No Makeup: Avoid all makeup except for basic skincare (lotion/toner). Avoid strong fragrances like perfume or hairspray.

Comfortable Clothing: Avoid hooded tops or skirts; wear comfortable clothing as the procedure is performed lying down.

Day Before Surgery: Get adequate sleep and rest. Avoid heavy drinking.
