LasikPlus Reviews on Google
LasikPlus has excellent customer service. Everyone is welcoming and friendly. They provide you with a wealth of knowledge before your treatment. You know exactly what to expect before, during and after your treatment. The surgery itself is painless, quick and is affordable. You cant beat a free consultation!!! This is a life changing operation and I highly recommend LasikPlus.
LasikPlus did an outstanding job both in the procedure and in the customer service they provided. Everyone was extremely friendly and made me feel comfortable. Dr. Allen kept me informed on what I would see, feel, and hear during the procedure, no surprises. BONUS: I was able to do my follow up appointments with my regular eye doctor! Super convenient! Thanks LasikPlus for my new 20-20 vision!
Best decision I’ve ever made! The staff was super friendly and made sure that I understood the whole process and encouraged questions. The whole process went very quickly and smoothly. It is the most amazing feeling not having to wear glasses or worry that I fell asleep with my contacts in :) Don't wait any longer for your 20/20 vision and go to LasikPlus!
Dr. Allen and his staff from the free consultation to the day of surgery were absolutely wonderful. They take their time going over everything with you to make sure you feel comfortable and understand the whole process. They answer any questions you have along the way. On the day of surgery they go over everything again and during surgery Dr. Allen explained what was going to happen at each step which was really nice and helped keep me relaxed. The surgery was less than 10 minutes and never felt any pain only slight pressure which they explain. I only experienced gritty and irritated eyes the first day which is totally normal. I also got some red blotches in my eyes which they explained was very normal and does not hurt at all and will go away in a few weeks. Highly reccomend their entire team. If your on the fence about having it done go in for a free consultation and I'm sure you'll be glad you did. I now have perfect vision and am done with glasses and contacts forever, could not be more grateful for them!!
I always get great service here, the people are nice and always willing to answer any questions you may have! Surgery went well, and was very quick. Just 3 days later and I already have 20/20 vision. One eye is a bit slower on the recovery than the other, but very happy not to be wearing glasses any more!
