Vision Correction Surgery

LIFE WITHOUT GLASSES
Dr. Robert Maloney believes that a well-informed patient is key to successful vision correction surgery. He wants to be sure that you fully understand what you can expect from your procedure you choose. He wants to help you care for and preserve your eyesight in the best way possible. Here, you can find the information that you need to help you make informed choices about health care for your eyes.
MAKING THE DECISION
Sometimes, no matter how much information you have gathered, the decision to choose one experienced surgeon over another comes down to your personal feelings. Personal chemistry is important. Choose someone with whom you feel comfortable—someone who is easy to talk to, friendly, and professional. Naturally, you also want a surgeon who listens to your questions, answers them completely, and asks you questions as well.
A good doctor‑patient relationship is important. Likewise, the surgeon’s support staff should be highly trained, competent, and caring. These are the people who will help support you through the procedure.
Once you feel comfortable with your decision, after you’ve carefully researched surgeons in your area, you’re ready to undertake one of the most transformative experiences of your lifetime—the elimination of your dependency on glasses or contacts.
