Frequently Asked Questions
16. What happens during surgery?
At
the hospital or eye clinic, drops will be put into your eye to
dilate the pupil. The area around your eye will be washed and
cleansed. The operation usually lasts less than one hour and is
almost painless. Many people choose to stay awake during surgery.
Others may need to be put to sleep for a short time. If you are
awake, you will have an anesthetic to numb the nerves in and around
your eye.
