Your Care Can Stay With Us

LASIK and Cataract Co-Management in Centennial

You do not have to leave your eye doctor to have vision surgery. At Hamilton Vision Center, we handle the consultation, the pre-operative testing, and all of your follow-up care. A trusted surgeon performs the procedure, and your care stays with us.

What Eye Surgery Co-Management Means

Eye surgery co-management is a collaborative care model between your Centennial eye doctor and a surgical eye specialist. Rather than navigating a surgeon's office alone, you have a trusted optometrist guiding you through every phase.

At Hamilton Vision Center, we begin by taking the time to understand your vision goals, your eye health history, and your lifestyle. We perform the necessary testing and imaging here in our office, communicate directly with the surgeon on your behalf, and manage your recovery after the procedure. You always have a team that knows your eyes and can answer your questions in plain language.

LASIK Consultations and Follow-Up

Dr. Hamilton directed pre- and post-LASIK care at the Dishler Laser Institute in Denver, one of the most respected LASIK centers in the region, before founding her own practices. That background means LASIK co-management is not a service we offer on the side; it is clinical work she has done at a high volume for years.

During a LASIK consultation, we evaluate your corneal thickness, corneal curvature (topography), pupil size, dry eye status, and refractive prescription. These measurements help us determine whether you are a strong candidate and whether a surface treatment like PRK may be safer for your corneas.

If you are a good candidate and choose to proceed, we coordinate your referral to a Colorado LASIK surgeon and remain your point of contact throughout recovery. 

Premium Cataract and IOL Options

Cataract surgery is one of the most common and successful procedures performed today, so if it is in your future, you are in good company. When the time comes, the lens implant you choose affects your vision quality and how much you rely on glasses afterward. Standard monofocal lenses correct for one focal distance, so you will still need reading glasses. Premium lens options change that equation.

We help you understand the full range of intraocular lens (IOL) technology available, including:

  • Monofocal IOLs: the standard covered by most insurance plans; clear distance vision, reading glasses still needed.
  • Toric IOLs: designed to correct astigmatism at the time of surgery, reducing dependence on glasses for distance.
  • Multifocal and extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) IOLs: premium lenses that let some patients see clearly at multiple distances, reducing the need for both distance and reading glasses.

The right lens depends on the shape of your eye, prescription, occupation, hobbies, and visual priorities. We review your measurements, walk you through your options, and share our recommendation with your surgeon so you go into the procedure informed and confident.

What Our Eye Doctors Handle

Our optometrists manage the full scope of surgical co-management care so you always have someone in your corner:

  • Candidacy evaluations: We assess whether LASIK, cataract surgery, or other procedures are appropriate for your eyes, vision prescription, and health history.
  • Pre-operative measurements and imaging: Corneal topography, biometry, and refraction data are collected here and shared directly with your surgical team.
  • Referral coordination: We refer patients to trusted, experienced surgeons in the Denver metro area and communicate your case details so you don't have to start over.
  • Post-operative follow-up care: We see you for your one-day, one-week, and one-month visits after surgery to monitor healing and address any concerns.
  • Premium intraocular lens consultations: For cataract patients, we help you evaluate advanced lens options and understand the tradeoffs before you make a decision.

One of the most important advantages of co-management at Hamilton Vision Center is continuity. You receive your evaluation, your pre-operative workup, and all of your post-operative follow-up care right here in Centennial.

We maintain a network of trusted local surgeons for LASIK and cataract procedures. These are relationships built over time, with physicians we have worked alongside and whose outcomes we know. When we refer you, we are not sending you to a stranger; we are connecting you with someone we trust with our own patients.
