LasikPlus Reviews on Google
The staff at LasikPlus made sure I was great candidate for surgery. Their test are very thorough and complete. They go over what to expect during, after, and beyond surgery. They talk you through and educate you on some of the tools and procedures they do. They have guaranteed financing to fit most budgets. After surgery my eyes felt like fire, however after resting for 4 hours, I was able to watch light tv with near perfect vision. By day 2 my eyesight was better than I could ever achieve with contact or glasses. By day 3 I had no problems. My vision is better than 20/20. And I can say I am the happiest I have ever been. This is the best decision I could have ever made! No doubt. I only wish I had known I could have done this sooner. -Goodbye glasses-
Professional from the very beginning! The staff answered all of my questions during the consult and the doctors are incredibly nice. They made me feel completely comfortable from beginning to end. Highly recommend!
Fantastic care and results. They only do procedure on Fridays and the day I went it was packed. Waited 3 hours for my 9:30 appointments. Vision is great, worth the stress!
The entire staff is very friendly and welcoming. The consultation is free and surgery is performed every Friday. The surgery itself was very quick and not too uncomfortable. Dr. Gabriels is very kind and explains everything to you step by step. The first few hours afterwards are the worst but it gets better by the minute. Expect a lot of eye drops both during the procedure and for a while after. With my astigmatism corrected my vision is now better than it ever was with contacts. Overall a great experience and would highly recommend LasikPlus.
The staff was wonderful. Answered my questions fully. Made me feel very comfortable going through with the process. From start to surgery was only a week!! Also found out they have same day surgery options. Highly recommend.
