Dr. Birchansky will perform your laser vision correction in our office surgical suite.  Plan to be at our office for approximately two hours on the day of your surgery.  After surgery, you will need someone to drive you home.  It is a good idea to rest your eyes and follow the post-operative instructions we will give you on taking eye drops after your surgery.  During your evaluation, Dr. Birchansky will talk with you about what to expect after surgery regarding your vision and healing time.
