From eligibility testing to long-term eye health monitoring, we make sure your eyes are in good hands before and after your procedure. Contact Blink Eyewear to book your LASIK consultation at one of our convenient locations in Crowfoot, West Springs, or Creekside.
What Is LASIK Co-Management—and Why Does It Matter?
LASIK co-management means we work with a laser eye surgeon to help manage your care throughout the LASIK journey. At Blink Eyewear, our optometrists don’t perform the LASIK procedure themselves. Instead, we handle everything else—evaluating your candidacy, coordinating referrals, and providing pre- and post-operative exams.
Why is this important? Because LASIK isn’t one-size-fits-all. Your overall eye health, corneal thickness, age, prescription stability, and lifestyle all determine whether it’s a safe and effective option. Working with our optometrists ensures you receive unbiased advice, personalized guidance, and thorough follow-up care from professionals who know your eyes best.
Step-by-Step: Your LASIK Journey with Blink Eyewear
Here’s what you can expect when you choose Blink Eyewear for LASIK co-management:
1. Comprehensive Eye Exam & LASIK Candidacy Assessment
We start with a full eye exam and eligibility screening. This includes:
- Checking corneal thickness
- Evaluating your prescription stability
- Measuring eye surface health
- Assessing pupil size and tear film quality
If LASIK isn’t the best fit, we’ll walk you through safe alternatives.
2. Trusted Referral to Calgary LASIK Surgeons
If you’re a good candidate, we refer you to a reputable laser eye surgeon in Calgary. We’ve built strong partnerships with leading providers to ensure you get expert surgical care.
3. Pre-Op Guidance from Your Optometrist
Before your surgery date, we provide advice on:
- How to prepare
- What to expect during and after the procedure
- Temporary adjustments to your contact lens routine
We ensure your eyes are in optimal condition before surgery.
4. Post-Op Monitoring and Recovery Support
After LASIK, your first follow-up is typically within 24–48 hours. We’ll monitor healing, check visual outcomes, and provide additional appointments over the next few months to:
- Track vision stability
- Manage any discomfort or dryness
- Ensure your eye surface remains healthy
Having your care close to home at Blink makes follow-ups simple and stress-free.
Is LASIK Right for You?
LASIK is life-changing—but it’s not for everyone. You may not be eligible if you:
- Have thin corneas
- Experience dry eye syndrome
- Have an unstable prescription
- Are pregnant or nursing
- Have certain autoimmune conditions
That’s why a thorough co-managed approach is so important. At Blink Eyewear, we ensure you’re making a safe, informed choice.
