So much easier than I realized! This was such a quick visit after decades of barely seeing beyond my hand without glasses. What a life changing experience in such a quick procedure. 100% recommended. They were so organized and expert in every step - from my first encounter on line.

Can I give six stars?? LasikPlus was amazing! I am so thankful and grateful that I was able to get LASIK after I was told years ago I wasn’t a great candidate due to my astigmatism. All of the staff, from the moment I arrived for my consultation to the procedure itself to the recheck, were super nice and did a wonderful job explaining everything along the way. Dr. Straub did my procedure on NYE and it went so well!! It was great to know I chose an incredibly experienced and knowledgeable physician to do my procedure! I went from not being able to see the big E on the eye chart (I could only see hand motion) to 20/15 in ONE DAY! I have worn glasses since I was a child, so to have this drastic of a change within one day is mind blowing! I’m almost one week post-op and my vision has been amazing. I wake up every day feeling so thankful to see this well. The only thing I regret is not being able to do this sooner. My LASIK procedure at LasikPlus has changed my life! Thank you to everyone at LasikPlus! I’ve been telling everyone to go get a consult!!

I CAN SEE!!! I have been wearing glasses since I was 17 years old and my vision for pretty bad but has been steady for the last few years. I decided to do Lasik because I was done having children and nursing. No more irritating contacts no more sitting from prescription sunglasses to regular glasses and no more foggy glasses with mask wearing!!! This is the best decision/investment I have ever made! The recovery was just closing my eyes for 4-6 hours, I took Tylenol PM and slept through the day and listened to podcasts until falling asleep through the night! I had my followup today and my vision is already 20/15. I have just scratchy, dry eyes but I just keep putting tears in and immediately it resolves! I highly recommend Lasik!!
