This appointment will be given to you immediately before or after your surgery.</p> <ul>After your 1st postoperative visit, there are two additional post-operative examinations required: <img src="../images/lasik_post_time.png" class="images_center" width="570" height="291" title="" alt="LASIK Post Op"/> <!-- <li>1 day, 3 weeks, 3 and 6 months following LASIK</li>--> <li>Additional visit at 1 year for PRK</li> <li>Regular yearly checkups thereafter</li> </ul> <p>Each post-operative appointment can be very important, even if it seems your vision is perfect. Sometimes complications can start small and be unnoticeable to the patient. Most of the time, Dr. Cutarelli can detect an arising complication during your post-op visit, before the situation escalates.</p> <p>You may schedule post-operative care with your eye care professional, if you prefer. We are happy to work with other practices to manage your post-op care. Please keep in mind that you must make your follow-up appointments with that office prior to your surgery date, and that you are responsible for any additional fees. Be prepared to furnish Cutarelli Vision with the pertinent information and completed forms necessary for the transfer; we are happy to facilitate this process for you.</p> <p><strong>Address all concerns immediately:</strong></p> <p>Additionally, Dr. Cutarelli will want to know if you have any concerns about your vision or your eyes at any time.</p> <p>Next step: <a href="lasik_enhancements.html">LASIK Enhancements</a>, if needed .</p> </div> <!--content_main--> <div id="content_side"> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="126">&nbsp;</td> <td width="186"><div id="google_translate_element" style="display:none"></div> <div id="translate_link"> <a href="#" class="topnav" onClick="document.getElementById('google_translate_element').style.display='inline';document.getElementById('translate_link').style.display='none';return false;">Translate This Page</a> </div></td> </tr> </table> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/cutarellivision" id="facebook" class="top_icons" style="position: absolute; left: 0; top: 555px;"><img src="../images/all_facebook_sm.png" width="136" height="46" title="" alt="Cutarelli Vision LASIK Denver on Facebook"/></a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/CutarelliVision" id="youtube" class="top_icons" style="position: absolute; right: -45px; top: 525px;"><img src="../images/all_youtube_sm.png" width="136" height="45" title="" alt="Cutarelli Vision LASIK Denver on YouTube"/></a> <a href="contact_us.php#form" class="sidebutton book"></a> <a href="lasik_test.php" class="sidebutton lasik"></a> <a href="lasik_testimonials.html" class="sidebutton testimonials"></a> <a href="financing.html" class="sidebutton payment"></a> <a href="lasik_alternatives.html" class="sidebutton candidate" style="margin-bottom: 16px;"></a> <div id="contact_info"> <h2>Denver </h2> <h3>303-486-2020</h3> <div class="address"> <img src="../images/home_popup_denver.png" class="image_left" width="75" height="75" title="" alt="Denver Lasik"/> <p>7887 E.
