Cataract Evaluation Packet

For cataract evaluation patients: review important and educational information here.

Thank you for choosing Chester County Eye Care for your cataract evaluation!

Cataract surgery is one of the most common procedures performed in the United States. With
today’s technology, there are many factors to consider when deciding to have cataract surgery
including choosing between conventional vs. laser assisted cataract surgery, using advanced
intraocular lenses, and correcting astigmatism. At your evaluation, our cataract surgeons will
review all of these options with you so that your surgery is customized to your individual vision
needs as well as perform a thorough eye exam to ensure cataract surgery is appropriate for you.

To help prepare for your upcoming cataract evaluation, please note the following:

  • Your appointment will take approximately 2-3 hours.
  • Contact Lens Wearers: Do not wear your hard contacts for 21 days or your soft contacts for 7 days prior to your appointment.
  • Some cataract tests are not covered by insurance. You are responsible for this cost which will be between $55 to $105.
  • Please bring your glasses prescription along with you.
  • We advise you to bring a family member or friend with you to your appointment.
  • You will be dilated at your appointment and may want to bring a driver.

We look forward to seeing you at your appointment!
