This is required by Georgia law, even if you feel like you are able to walk.
You will be escorted to your car in a wheelchair after your surgery. A brief physical examination is required and must be performed by your doctor no more than 30 days before your surgery. Your primary care doctor will advise you regarding the exact plan you should follow. These doctors have been providing ophthalmic anesthesia and working with us for over 25 years. The day before your surgery, it is important to not eat or drink anything after midnight. Our team of highly qualified nurses will contact you prior to the day of your surgery to explain what to expect, what time to arrive, and how you should take any medications the morning of your surgery.Ī highly experienced MD anesthesiologist is always present in the surgery center and is either directly providing or immediately supervising your anesthesia care. While in the operating room, you will be monitored closely by one of the experienced anesthesiologists and certified registered nurse anesthetists, and will receive medication to keep you relaxed during the procedure. You will be asked to change your shirt and wear a hospital gown, but do not have to disrobe completely. We suggest you wear something loose-fitting and comfortable, and leave jewelry items at home. On the day of your procedure, you will be welcomed by Georgia Retina’s specially-trained staff, who already have your chart and know your history - reducing repetitive questions to answer and duplicate forms to fill out. Our cutting-edge center provides a warm and personalized setting for your procedure and is also less expensive than a traditional hospital outpatient department. Only Georgia Retina doctors and patients have access to our ASC, which gives our patients a more convenient experience. Opened to Georgia Retina doctors and patients in 2010, Georgia Retina’s state-of-the-art Ambulatory Surgery Center is licensed by the state of Georgia and has achieved the highest level of accreditation - a three-year award by The American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgical Facilities, one of the nation’s foremost ASC authorities. You can be assured of the highest level of care since our staff and equipment is completely dedicated to this one specialty. There are no other non-ocular procedures and no non-retina related ocular procedures performed here. Georgia Retina Surgery Center is one of the only surgery centers of its size in the country that provides exclusively retinal surgery.
