If you are planning to have visian eye surgery done you may have many questions. Generally speaking this is the safest and most effective of all eye surgeries today. The procedure is completely reversible because it involves implanting a contact lens behind the patient’s iris. The success rate is nearly 99 percent and the entire procedure takes only around fifteen to thirty minutes for each eye. Before you decide on having the procedure done you will need to speak with your eye care professional and inquire about your candidacy for Visian surgery. Your eye doctor can help to determine if the procedure is right for you.
If your Houston eye doctor agrees then you will be given an appointment for the procedure. Before the surgery you should be given drops of a local anesthetic. This will numb your eyes. A sedative may also be administered in order to help you to relax through the procedure. Again, the procedure itself takes only about fifteen minutes from start to finish for each eye so you should be in and out of the operating room within a half an hour or so. Your surgeon will provide antibiotic eye drops that also help to ward off inflammation after the procedure.
Visian eye surgery is an outpatient procedure so you will be permitted to leave shortly after the procedure. You will need someone to drive you home and expect to take it easy for the rest of the day after your surgery. Most patients are completely back to normal within just a few hours of the procedure.
