Having LASIK tomorrow HELP!

[admin]

Hi,

a) Contact lenses are typically suspended before surgery. Each doctor has his/her own protocol. Standard protocol is often minimum 4 wks for RGP lenses, 3 weeks for toric soft or overnight wear lenses, 2 weeks for other lenses. However, some doctors allow their patients to be out for less time.

b) This is up to your doctor.
c) This should have been asked.
d) You will have to ask your doctor.

We cannot give specific medical advice to you, but certainly you should feel comfortable that all of your issues are resolved and questions answered before you proceed.

Well, I went last Tuesday to have surgery and asked all these questions to my doctor.
When I was approaching the last one, he was so nervous that he left the room. I told his assistant that this was a kind of totally unprofessional behavior, unacceptable, and that I was not having surgery with him.
"You have too many doubts we won't do the procedure with you like that". You should answer my questions, I told him(actually I was thinking "you son of a container full of ***** bitches") I don't wanna do it with you either. You're unpredictable, unprofessional, and I don't trust you.
One day you tell me to come to have some studies done on my eyes, and the other day you say you don't have time and they are no longer necessary. You give me a brochure to read before consultation and you don't even follow the rules that you put there.


Well, now looking for another doctor. . .
