How well
do you see?

This is a working acuity chart, not a decoration. Sit about arm's length from your screen, cover one eye, and read each line aloud. The chart will tell you the smallest line you cleared.

It is a screening aid, not a diagnosis. It cannot detect glaucoma, retinal disease or anything that happens behind a normal-looking eye — which is exactly why the assessment exists.

01

Stand or sit 60cm from the screen.

02

Cover your left eye. Read the lines down.

03

Stop when you can no longer read a line cleanly.

04

Repeat with the other eye. Compare.

The assessment

Ninety minutes
before we touch you.

01

Measure

Corneal topography, pachymetry, refraction, pressure, dilated fundus exam. We map the shape of your eye to the micron before anyone suggests surgery.

02

Tell you the truth

Roughly one in five people who come in for LASIK should not have it. Dry eye, a thin cornea, an unstable prescription — we will say so, and tell you what we would do instead.

03

Operate

Both eyes, same session, about fifteen minutes under the laser. You are awake. You will be walked out, not carried.

04

Follow up for years

Day one, week one, month one, then annually. Refractive surgery is a long relationship, not a transaction.

The surgeons

Four people.
Four pairs of hands.

to know for certain.

The assessment is the product. If surgery is right for you we will say so. If it is not, you will leave knowing what is actually going on.
