THE DAY OF YOUR SURGERY

Having surgery of any kind can be a stressful experience for many.  Cataract surgery at St. Joseph's Health Care is carried out in our state-of-the-art cataract suite.  Since cataract surgery is the only type of surgery performed in this facility, our nurses & staff are highly trained in delivering the very best in surgical eye care.  Every step of the day is carefully orchestrated to ensure the experience is comfortable & positive for you.

​

You will typically be asked to present about 60-90 minutes BEFORE your scheduled surgery time.  After registering, you will undergo a health review with one of our nurses, and they will also prepare you for the surgery itself.  The video below will walk you through a typical cataract surgery day so that you are fully aware of what to expect of your surgery experience.
