From your first consultation to the final follow-up, LASIK co-management at First Eye Care Grand Prairie gives you expert guidance every step of the way.
We help you navigate the surgery process with personalized care, convenient local appointments, and trusted referrals – so your vision correction journey feels seamless, not overwhelming.
What Is LASIK Co-Management?
If you’ve been thinking about LASIK or another type of vision correction surgery, chances are you’ve done your share of late-night Googling. And while the idea of waking up with clear vision sounds amazing, the actual process? That’s where most patients start feeling a little unsure.
That’s where co-management comes in.
LASIK co-management means working with your local optometrist before and after your surgery – even if the procedure itself is performed by a different surgeon. At First Eye Care Grand Prairie, we handle everything from your initial evaluation to your long-term follow-ups. This way, you stay under the care of a provider who knows your eyes, your health history, and your preferences – all without the hassle of navigating it alone.
We believe LASIK should feel like a step forward, not a maze of appointments and unfamiliar names. And it starts right here in Grand Prairie.
What Happens Before Eye Surgery?
The first step is a comprehensive evaluation to make sure you're a good candidate for LASIK or another refractive procedure like PRK. While many patients qualify, not everyone does – and it's important to get that answer from someone who isn’t just looking to book you for surgery.
At our office, we’ll:
- Assess your vision and corneal thickness
- Look for signs of dry eye or other conditions that could impact healing
- Review your eye health and general medical history
- Discuss your vision goals and lifestyle
If everything checks out, we’ll connect you with a trusted refractive surgeon we’ve worked with for years – professionals who prioritize safety, results, and clear communication. We coordinate directly with their team to ensure a seamless transition, and we stay in the loop throughout your surgical process.
What to Expect After LASIK Surgery in Grand Prairie
Once your procedure is done, your care continues back here at First Eye Care Grand Prairie. Post-operative appointments are just as important as the surgery itself – they help us monitor healing, prevent complications, and make sure you’re getting the results you hoped for.
Here’s how we support you after your LASIK surgery:
- We check your healing progress and ensure the corneal flap is stable
- We monitor for side effects like dryness, light sensitivity, or visual distortion
- We make adjustments to any temporary vision changes
- We answer your questions and keep you informed at every stage
These follow-up visits usually happen the day after surgery, then again at one week, one month, and three months post-op – though this may vary based on how your eyes respond.
The advantage of staying local? You don’t have to travel back and forth to the surgery center for every check-in. You’re right here with a team that already knows you.
