Dr. Edelstein and his team here at LasikPlus are incredible. More of the medical establishment needs to take influence from what is offered here. Affordable, life changing care, delivered by friendly folks who actually care about you as a person and not just as another number. I've been without the better half of my vision for over 6 years now. I've never enjoyed wearing glasses or contacts. So I've chosen to let the world around me blur and fade away. Mostly working from home on a computer my nearsightedness has never been much of a problem. Little did I realize how much of the world I was missing. I see details now from distances I had never imagined possible. I had been thinking about getting Lasik for many years prior to visiting this office, but I've always thought it would be too expensive or risky. Let me tell you, they offer affordable care plans, and the procedure itself is something out of Science Fiction. For my prescription, I was out of the operating room in under 8 minutes (seriously my wife got a video of the whole thing). There was no pain, nothing to fear, the whole process was mind blowing 🤯. I can now see, after only a few days of healing, at 20/15 which is even greater vision than the standard best of 20/20. Many of my colleagues are now convinced and getting their free consultations. You should be convinced too. Go get LASIK. Stop fussing with contacts and glasses and give yourself the treat of vision. Vision even greater than what you've ever experienced before.
Entire staff was nice, down to earth and displayed excellent beside manner! Dr. Ellis sealed the deal making me feel comfortable during the actual LASIK surgery. I happened to be wearing an AALIYAH T-shirt that day, and he even made me even more relaxed and reassured when he PLAYED AALIYAH'S music during the swift, painless process! I've already recommended them to family and friends!
Probably like many people, I was terrified before this procedure. I was scared I would be in agonizing pain, or the surgeon would slip and stab my retina, or some other disconcerting thought like that, and it was not any better the day of. However, while I was waiting, this very nice woman noticed I was terrified and chatted with me a little bit. I don’t remember her name, but I do remember the comfort I felt talking with her and being reassured that everything will go smoothly. My name was finally called, and just as soon as I walked in, I walked right back out with incredible vision. My vision has never been clearer. I can finally see my actual face in the mirror without having to wear my glasses. Speaking of which, I no longer have to worry about cleaning, losing, or breaking my glasses ever again. If you qualify, and if you can afford it, I cannot recommend LASIK enough. It may seem intimidating at first, but not only do you not feel a thing during the procedure, you will have perfectly clear vision within a day or two. LASIK has helped me so much, and if you decide to try it, just know that you are making an incredible decision.
Amazing! Can’t believe how quick the procedure was, how personal the staff were, and how quickly my vision was restored.
