Pre-Op and Post-Op Eye Care Support
Local Support Before and After Eye Surgery
Most eye surgery in Middle Georgia happens in Macon or Atlanta, which means a lot of driving for the visits around it. Best Chance Optical gives you a local base. The licensed eye doctor who sees patients here can perform a pre-operative exam, and we coordinate records and scheduling with the surgical practice so nothing falls through the cracks.
After surgery your prescription usually changes, sometimes dramatically. Cataract patients often need only reading glasses afterward. LASIK patients may need a temporary pair while their eyes settle. Our optician makes sure you have the right glasses at each stage, including inexpensive interim pairs so you are not paying full price for lenses you will outgrow in a month.
Our founder spent years as an Army flight medic and in emergency medicine before opticianry. That background shows in how carefully we handle the medical paperwork and follow-up around a procedure.

Common Questions
Pre & Post-Op FAQ
Will I need glasses after cataract surgery?
Many people still need reading glasses, and some need glasses for distance depending on the lens implant chosen. We fit whatever you need once your surgeon says your prescription is stable, typically a few weeks after surgery.
Do you perform the surgery?
No. Surgery is done by an ophthalmologist. We handle the exam before, coordination during, and your eyewear after.
Can you send my records to my surgeon in Macon or Atlanta?
Yes. With your permission we send exam records and measurements directly to the surgical practice.
Does CareCredit cover this?
CareCredit can be used for exams and eyewear here, and many surgical practices accept it as well.
