In preparation for your Santa Monica LASIK surgery, start by carefully reviewing the information provided to you by your doctor. Your doctor is your most valuable resource in learning what to expect and taking the steps necessary to ensure a successful outcome. At your pre-operative appointment, you'll receive a list of instructions detailing what you should and shouldn't do before and after your surgery. It's a good idea to share these instructions with those you live with and the person who will be driving you home from the surgery.

Cease using creams, lotions, makeup, and perfume the day before your LASIK surgery. Such products are usually harmless, but they can cause problems during your surgery and recovery, as they increase the risk of infection. You may also be asked to scrub your eyelashes in preparation for LASIK surgery. Doing so can be helpful for reducing potentially irritating debris in the eyelash area.
Transportation after Santa Monica LASIK Surgery All LASIK patients will need someone to drive them home after surgery. You may be given medication to help you relax prior to your surgery, and the effect of this medication, in combination with the recovery time needed to see clearly, means you won't be able to drive safely immediately following your surgery. Many patients are able to drive themselves to their follow-up appointment, but it doesn't hurt to have a friend or family member ready to drive you, should you prefer.
