Joanna is awesome! Life is great again thanks to everyone at LasikPlus! Good people, fantastic service and care.

Had my procedure on Friday evening and it has changed my whole life! I went from a -7 prescription in my glasses to being able to read the 20/15 line on the chart in 3 days. The actual procedure was quick and painless (but definitely a little weird) and I woke up the next morning being able to see! If you’re debating whether it’s worth it, it definitely is! Everyone here is so nice and they make the process so easy :)

LasikPlus is an amazing place for vision correction. The entire process was seamless from start to finish. I love that they offer financing options! Dr. Straub is so professional and kind. All of the staff was welcoming and reassuring. I would recommend LasikPlus to anyone looking to finally take the plunge. Best invest ever!
Jose R.
I would definitely recommend this place. Walking in I didn't felt like a stranger, I felt welcome. The staff did an amazing job at explaining everything step by step. From the procedure to the financing it was all a piece of cake. A big shout out to Olga K. For being there from day one. Also to all the Dr. That took care of me through it all. Amazing place. Thank you all.
