Wear comfortable, loose-fitting
clothing on the day of your surgery. This may be particularly important
if you are having outpatient surgery; you will need to wear this outfit
home after you have been discharged.
Wear your eyeglasses instead
of contact lenses on the morning of your surgery. It is easier to remove
your glasses prior to surgery. If you are going to be staying with us following
your surgery, you may want to bring your contact lenses, case, and solution
to use once you are settled into your room after surgery.
If you wear a hearing aid or
dentures, you should wear these to the hospital.
If you are going to be staying
at the hospital after surgery, you may want to bring personal toiletries
and other items you may want to use during your stay.
Please leave all jewelry and
other valuables, such as cash and credit cards, at home or with a family
member in the Surgical Waiting Area.
