@porchmonkeyusa You should discuss this with your eye surgeon.

@AllenWalkerFangurl42 Please read some of my other replies to similar questions ehre. Make sure your ophthalmologist answers all your specific questions. Pain during or after the procedure is quite rare.

@gaiuskaiser2 That depends. Could be any type.

@amandao2gould I will take a look when I get a chance!

@Raxiss Usually a peribulbar block is safe and effective. Rarely a dilated pupil exam isn't performed pre-op for reasons like a very narrow anterior chamber (for fear of triggering an attack of acute angle closure glaucoma). Please ask your ophthalmologist to clarify anything you aren't sure about and make sure all your questions are answered by him/her. Best wishes!

@martinaromero1 The patient is really awake. No problems!
-
@DrNooraALsilawi The patient really doesn't see much. Just some shadows and lights.

I had my left eye done 12-13-11 and my right eye is doing to be done 12-14-11. After only one day I can tell the vision in my left eye is going to be much brighter and clearer than its ever been in my 68 years on the planet. Modern medicine is absolutely wonderful.
Nice job!

@licenciadorsito Thanks! Sorry the video is so grainy. It was made long ago. I need to make a new one.

is some kind of pupil dilator given to keep the pupils that large, thanks

@darrylportelli Not in this case. Pre-operative eye drops are all that are usually needed. We do sometimes run into a small pupil that won't dilate with eye drops. We use a special temporary "ring" to keep the pupil open while operate in those cases. Really helps.
