Frequently asked questions about products and services

Eye surgerys and a free surgery assessment

If you are considering eye surgery you can get started easily with a free surgery assessment.  


During a surgery assessment, we will: 

  • review your current vision and needs. 
  • discuss possible surgical options. 

You will:  

  • get answers to any questions you may have about techniques, costs and financing, benefits, and recovery. 


A surgery assessment doesn’t commit you to any further treatment. If you decide that eye surgery isn’t right for you, we will be happy to help you improve your vision in another way. 


The assessment takes about 15–30 minutes and can be completed either in-store or by phone. If you book a phone appointment, one of our eyecare professionals will call you at the scheduled time. You can book a phone appointment for any location.
