The pre-operative examination at SNEC comprises a comprehensive eye examination, assessment of your refractive error, a computerised mapping of the shape of your cornea and a personal consultation with one of SNEC’s Refractive Surgeons. This meticulous process is crucial in determining your suitability and safety for LASIK.

• If you are currently using contact lenses, please abstain from wearing them for 2 weeks for hard/rigid gas permeable lens and 1 week for soft lens prior to the consultation.
  
  
• Please bring your most recent pair of eyeglasses for the consultation.
  
  
• The consultation will take approximately 3 hours as it will include a series of comprehensive tests. Kindly take this into consideration when you make plans for the day.
  
  
• Please do not plan to drive immediately after the consultation as you may experience blurred vision due to dilation of your pupils. You might want to consider bringing a pair of sunglasses to help shield your eyes from excessive glare.
  
  
• Kindly bring along your identification card/ passport for verification and registration purposes
