Ever wonder what your doctor does before stepping into the operating theater? Here is a quick behind-the-scenes look at the transformation from consultation mode to surgery mode.
Why the Change of Clothes?
Infection control is our highest priority (CDC guidelines, 2025). Before any refractive or cataract procedure, the surgical team completely changes into sterile scrubs, masks, caps, and shoe covers. This “warrior dress” ensures that the operating theater remains a pristine environment, minimizing any risk of contamination during your procedure.
What Happens Before Your Surgery?
While you are relaxing in the pre-op area and receiving numbing drops, our team is scrubbing in. The transition from the doctor you met in the consultation room to the surgeon in the OT is a strict, structured process designed entirely for your safety and the best possible visual outcome.
