Putting his patients’ safety first

Medically conservative by nature, Dr. Hyver puts the safety of his patients as his highest priority. That’s why he’s extensively involved in your pre-operative care, where safe and effective visual outcomes are born. For example, as a result of his conservative medical screening, about a quarter of our patients do not qualify for any form of laser vision correction, and of those who do, about 25% only qualify for PRK. Dr. Hyver also requires that prior to surgery, patients undergo a pre-operative dilated exam to ensure their eyes are healthy and sound. Neglecting this exam can put the patient at unnecessary medical risk, potentially compromising the patient’s vision safety. While some surgeons may make this dilated exam optional, Dr. Hyver considers it an essential safety measure and thus the standard of care.
