Same-Day Surgery at DLV Vision
Our patients are our top priority, and we’re always listening to what they have to say. We’ve found that about 85% of patients want their surgery within the same week or as soon as possible, which is why we’re proud to offer same-day surgery options.
Check-In/Testing
You’ll receive a greeting from our friendly team and can relax in our comfortable waiting room for 15 minutes or less while we get everything ready for you. Then, you will be taken back for testing, where our technicians will perform evaluations for about 30 minutes to determine the current state of your eye health.

Doctor Discussion
For the next half hour, our internal optometrists will thoroughly check your eyes during a comprehensive eye exam. You’ll then meet with your surgeon for about 20 minutes or so, where you’ll learn more about your procedure and what to expect during each step.

Patient Counselor/Opening in Schedule
After that, you’ll sit down with our patient counselor to discuss pricing and financing options for approximately 20 minutes. Our team will go over in detail what you need to know to prepare for surgery for about 15 minutes. We’ll then bring your surgeon in during an opening in their schedule; because of this, wait times can vary.

Surgery
It may surprise you to learn that most of our surgeries are quite fast — usually only around 20 minutes! Your individual experience will depend on which surgery you are undergoing, but in all our procedures we ensure your eye is properly numbed and you are comfortable the entire time. Our skilled doctors will check in with you throughout, so you always feel supported and well cared for.
15 minutes
After Surgery
We’ll monitor you for a short period of time after your procedure to make sure there aren’t any complications. When our team has assessed you and made sure you are in tip-top shape, we will send you home with your driver so you can be on your way to enjoying clear sight.
