Carolina Cornea and Laser Center

Surgeon-Care LASIK means your laser surgeon performs the pre-operative evaluation, the surgery, and all of the post-operative care.

 

To save money and the time of the surgeon, many laser centers have optometrists or other “referring” doctors perform most of the pre-operative evaluation and post-operative care.  This compromise is at the expense of the patient and is called “co-management.”  Additionally, there is most often a 20% sharing of the surgical fee with the referring doctor associated with the referral.

 

It makes sense that having the most experienced and most highly trained physician (your laser vision surgeon) providing all of your care, pre- and post-operative care, would translate into better vision and fewer complications.  At Carolina Cornea and Laser Center, we believe our patients deserve the best care we can provide – no cutting corners professionally or technically.  That means all of our patients get Surgeon-Care LASIK – no co-management, no compromises.
