Important Information About Your Cataract Evaluation

Home » Uncategorized » Important Information About Your Cataract Evaluation

Thank you for choosing Specialty Eye Institute for your cataract evaluation.

During this appointment you will undergo several pre-surgical measurements and tests to determine your eye health. In order to obtain the most accurate readings please use preservative free artificial tears 2-3 days prior to your appointment. We recommend using 1 drop in both eyes 4-6 times per day. A well lubricated eye is beneficial for the necessary testing.

You can find artificial tears at any local pharmacy.
Some of the brands available at the local pharmacy include: Preservative Free Systane, Blink Tears, Refresh, Soothe, and TheraTears.

What to Expect at your appointment:

  • Your eyes will be dilated at your appointment, please bring sunglasses
  • It is recommended you bring a friend or family member due to dilation and surgical details discussed during your visit
  • You can expect to be at our office for up to 3 hours
  • If you wear contacts, you MUST discontinue wearing them 15 days prior to your appointment (please contact us to reschedule if they have not been removed timely)

If you have any questions, please contact us at (877) 852-8463.
