What happens if I move my eye during the procedure?
The platform tracks the eye, and the surgeon monitors the treatment continuously. If the eye moves beyond what the system can compensate for, the treatment can be paused or, in some cases, stopped and rescheduled. Ask your surgeon what the plan is if that happens to you: a good answer will be specific rather than reassuring.
