Understand the procedure

What is laser vision correction (lasik, smile and prk)?

Laser vision correction reshapes the cornea to reduce dependence on glasses or contact lenses. LASIK, SMILE and PRK are different procedures. Suitability depends on prescription stability, corneal measurements, the eye surface and other eye health findings.

This is general procedure information. Your chosen doctor assesses what applies to you.

Procedure information: NHS: patient information

Understand the proposed plan

What the operation may involve

Different techniques

LASIK uses a corneal flap, SMILE removes a small piece of corneal tissue through an incision, and PRK treats the surface. Recovery and suitability differ.

Corneal and surface assessment

Corneal shape, thickness and dry-eye assessment help determine whether a procedure is suitable.

Visual expectations

Residual prescription, night-vision symptoms and later reading-glasses needs should be discussed rather than assuming permanent glasses-free vision.

Your decision, your questions

Questions for your chosen doctor

Choose the questions that matter to your situation. We record them in your own words and take them to the consultation.

Your existing case file

Records to organise

We organise the current and previous spectacle prescriptions alongside your treatment history and the written procedure recommendation. We note what you want the refractive eye surgeon to clarify and keep the original reports available for the consultation.

Share the records you already have. This is a document checklist, not a request for new tests.

Bring together what is available

  • Current and previous spectacle prescriptions
  • Corneal topography or tomography and thickness measurements
  • Dry-eye assessment and eye examination records
  • Contact-lens history and previous eye procedures
  • Your written procedure recommendation, current prescriptions and allergy details

When you cannot attend yourself

How Redwood takes your case to your doctor

  1. Tell us whom you have chosen. Share the doctor’s name, hospital or clinic, and the decision you want reviewed.
  2. Prepare the case with us. We organise your existing records, treatment timeline and questions, then coordinate the appointment.
  3. We attend with your case. Your Care Steward takes the organised laser vision correction (lasik, smile and prk) case file to the refractive eye surgeon you selected and puts forward your recorded questions. After the consultation, we share the doctor's recommendations and consultation documents with you.

A video call during the consultation can be arranged if the doctor allows.
