Imagine Your Life Without Lenses
At Vision Care Centre, we understand that pre- and post-operative care for patients undergoing laser eye surgery is essential. Our optometrists are all experienced with providing professional and complete support to patients undergoing laser eye treatment.
Our staff are familiar with the laser eye surgery procedure and can answer your questions and provide patient support with every step of the way.
Before Laser Eye Surgery
If you are interested in laser eye surgery, the first step should be undergoing a comprehensive eye exam. This exam will help us determine if laser eye surgery is the best option for you based on your current ocular health, medical history, and future goals.
After our optometrist has determined that you are a good candidate for laser eye surgery, treatment objectives, and likely outcomes will be discussed. We will also go over all the risks associated with laser eye surgery.
We believe that the more we educate each patient, the more informed decisions they can make. If you would like to pursue surgery at that point, our office will refer you to the appropriate laser centre.
During Laser Eye Surgery
In most cases, the surgery will last no more than 15 minutes per eye, depending on the type of vision correction being performed.
The procedure itself varies depending on the type of refractive surgery used, but most common laser procedures use a highly precise laser called an excimer laser to reshape the cornea.
After the procedure is completed, you will be instructed to relax for a while to ensure everything is normal. You will then be allowed to head home, but you will likely need a ride.
After Laser Eye Surgery
Laser eye surgery is a very safe and effective form of vision correction. However, as with all surgeries, proper post-operative care is essential to ensure that your eye heals correctly.
We will see you at regular intervals to see how your eyes are healing following the procedure. During these appointments, our optometrists will monitor your overall eye health, and prescribe any necessary treatments, such as eye drops.
We are happy to answer any questions you may have surrounding laser eye surgery, so please do not hesitate to give us a call.

Our Testimonials
I have seen Dr. Sebastian and he is the only one to have diagnosed my dry eye syndrome and I have seen others before him and did not catch this. As a result of my dry eyes my prescription was not reading accurately. I am grateful for his patience and extra care he has given me.

My family and I have always been impressed with the friendly yet extremely professional service we have enjoyed over the years. The doctors are knowledgeable and personable, the frame selection is excellent (as is the contingent of wonderful staff who are always available with honest opinions and helpful advice!) and the receptionists are fabulous and friendly. The newly renovated space is lovely as well. Well done, everyone!

My Vision Care experience was absolutely grand. I greatly value all the wonderful people there who looked after me during my visit. Everyone is extremely friendly and highly professional starting right from the time one enters the beautiful place.
The place itself provides a wonderful experience. I value all the professional advice that is given with the greatest care. For me it is a joy to come in on a regular basis and to know I am in good hands. I greatly value the care and guidance given by Dr. Ramesh.

We want to thank you very much for all your hard work that went into Alicia’s Neuro-Visual Therapy. It has opened Alicia’s ability to do so much more both personally and in school, and what means most to us as her parent, we see how confident Alicia is in herself and in her school work. She was always falling down a lot and she always had her head tilted to one side. Now she is focused to get her tasks done on time and the best part, correctly…

When I started the program, I had trouble focusing and sitting and doing my work. Since I started the 36 week program, this has changed. I focused on getting better grades than I did in grade 2 (now in grade 3). I have got A’s in all subjects this year. Now I can sit and do my work, I am able to focus and I am not always looking around the room at other things. I used to need a ruler to read, now I don’t and I can read better and faster than I used to. I am doing great and have learned a lot through this experience.

I am so thankful for encountering Dr. Ramesh who truly cares about her patients. Back in 2015 when I brought my daughter in for the first time, I was hysterical and scared. I was afraid that her eye will never stop turning in and that she would need surgery to fix the lazy eye.
Dr. Ramesh explained to me like no other doctor ( and I’ve brought my daughter to several specialists) what exactly is happening and what can be done to fix the problem. Anna is only 3 years old, we worked persistently with her to the point where now she is able to have great control of her eye. I cannot believe we went from her eye constantly turning in to barely noticing it now. Thank you so much for caring and all of your encouragement and support. You are not only an amazing doctor, but also and amazing person!
