Such an amazing experience, and I’m so grateful for everyone at LasikPlus. I have never been able to see like this in my life, it was definitely the best decision ever made. Everyone at LasikPlus was so welcoming and personable, and made me feel comfortable. They made the whole process seem so simple and quick. I had the procedure done on a Friday, and by the following Monday when it came time for my follow-up checkup, I left LasikPlus knowing I now had 20/15 vision. Better than expected! I interacted with so many great people and I wish I could name them all, but I will just thank you to Dr. Sally Thompson, and to EVERYONE who took any part in my Lasik journey. Not all heroes wear capes 😊 I would recommend this place to anyone interested in bettering their lives by improving their eyesight.
Absolutely love my vision! Better than I expected. LasikPlus staff and doctors are amazing. I Recommend for anyone looking to get rid of Contacts or Glasses. Quick and Painless - Should have done this sooner. Well Done LasikPlus!!!
Impressed with the thoughourness! At the final moment, the Doctor said let’s evaluate a third time to ensure the first two were correct. No problem here! Thank you everyone for your fantastic work from the reception to the techs to the three Doctors who ensured all was great!
From the moment I stepped in, I have felt comfortable with the staff here. The prices are actually really well priced, and they are willing to work with you. I am so excited to get this operation done, and after many years of waiting, I finally have found a group I am comfortable with! -Update: I just woke up from my nap after the surgery and I can see! A bit foggy still, but it is clearing! A cool note, when the laser was working on my left eye, I actually saw the light I was staring at get more in focus! That was really cool! It was real time evidence of the laser doing what it was supposed to do!
I had a great experience here. All of the staff was super helpful and encouraging, especially during the procedure. I felt well informed about everything, and the facilities were very nice. It’s only been 24 hours since my surgery and I am seeing so clearly already! So pleased I made this decision.
