Laser & Cataract
You must be 20yrs and over unless you have a specific need for assistance with your vision due to your occupation. The reason for this is the need to achieve a more stable prescription.

Our optometrist may recommend a trial with contact lenses before going ahead with laser surgery.
There is a fee for this service to cover the cost of the contact lens.
Ongoing monitoring of any eye conditions identified incidentally during your assessment

How do I prepare for my assessment appointment?
Contact lenses can distort the shape of the front surface of your eye, the cornea, and corneal measurements are crucial in LASIK calculations.
