FAQs at Our Optometrist Office in Pittsburgh, PA

Your vision is vital, so it's natural to have many questions about your ocular health and the treatments available. The team at South Hill Eye Associates is here to answer all of your inquiries. Schedule an appointment to discuss your specific concerns with an optometrist in Pittsburgh, PA, and read on to learn about some common topics.

Should I see an optometrist or an ophthalmologist?

Everyone should see an optometrist routinely to have their vision checked and be examined for other ocular issues. You should find an ophthalmologist if you are interested in medical or surgical interventions for your eyes. Our team includes both types of doctors to serve all of your needs.

What kind of surgical interventions are available?

Every ophthalmologist clinic offers different services. At our office, we're proud to offer surgical procedures to correct vision (LASIK), cataracts, glaucoma, eyelid disorders, corneal issues, and eye muscle issues, as well as other solutions.

Will my surgery hurt? What will recovery be like?

Eye surgeries vary greatly, so it's best to ask your doctor what to expect. LASIK procedures, the most common surgical procedure done at our clinic, are not painful. You may experience minor itching or burning afterward, but it should go away quickly. After LASIK, you'll be able to return home right away and can even return to work, although we recommend taking a few days off. Note that you will not be able to drive until an eye doctor clears you at your follow-up appointment (typically the day after the procedure).
