have a question?

The surgery center will call you the day before with your arrival time and specific instructions.

Loose fitting comfortable clothing is preferred. Please leave any valuables and jewelry at home. Do not wear clothing that must be removed over your head.

Bring with you a photo ID such as a driver's license and your insurance cards. When you arrive at the center the staff will review with you the consent for surgery, your financial responsibility, Advanced Directives, and other important information.

A member of our surgical team will call you one to two days prior to your scheduled surgical date and review pre-op instructions and answer any questions you may have.

Your surgeon's office will call you a day or two before your scheduled date and tell you the time that you are to arrive at the center. This will be approximately one to one and half hours before your scheduled surgery.

Immediately after surgery you will be taken to our post-operative area where you will be monitored by our clinical staff. You will be offered a drink and light snack.

You will receive written instruction on what you should do at home and you will be prepared for discharge from our center.

NY State regulations and our policy dictate that you cannot drive yourself home after receiving anesthesia. We also recommend that you have someone with you at home after your surgery.

Eye Surgery Center of Westchester accepts most insurance plans and we are Medicare certified. Any insurance questions you may have can be addressed with our Billing Department at (800) 955-4428.
