Dr. Richard Maw's Bio and Credentials
Richard Maw, M.D. is board-certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology. He has performed over 28,000 LASIK procedures since 1999. He was fellowship-trained at the Harvard Medical School and received his medical degree from the University of Iowa College of Medicine. Dr. Maw has been trusted to perform LASIK on friends, family, doctors, surgeons (including other eye surgeons), lawyers, military fighter pilots, commercial airline pilots, Olympic athletes, and professional athletes. He has also had LASIK himself.
He has performed extensive research in ophthalmology and published numerous articles in peer review journals. He has presented dozens of scientific papers on LASIK to the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, the International Society of Refractive Surgery, and the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology. Dr. Maw was among the first doctors in the world to prove that using larger optical zones during LASIK reduces the occurrence of night glare, and one of the first doctors in the Northeast to perform LASIK for hyperopia and hyperopia with astigmatism. He has participated in FDA monitored clinical trials for LASIK for hyperopia, LASIK for hyperopia with astigmatism, and scleral expansion band placement for the reversal of presbyopia with Dr. Soloway at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary.

LasikPlus Reviews on Google
Everybody there is so incredibly kind and caring. I felt very comfortable from start to finish. They were very clear about every step and how it might feel. The aftercare instructions were very clear and knowing what to expect helped a lot. I feel like I have new eyes and a new life!
I had been going back and forth on if I should do it or not. After my consult I decided to move forward and it is by far one of the best things I have done! Eyes feel great and vision is fixed! Highly recommend and if you are on edge, make the consult appointment. You won’t regret it.
My experience at LASIK plus was excellent. The staff is kind, friendly and very knowledgeable. The evaluation was very informative and the team provided all kinds of information and I left with no questions about the process. The day of the procedure was super quick and aside from some minor pressure was very painless. As per instructions I went right home and took a nap. Six hours after the procedure I could see without corrective lenses for the first time in 30 years. The next day the discomfort of the procedure was gone. I'm totally amazed at how fast it was done. Even more impressive is 24 hrs later my vision is 20/20. Highly recommend. Dr Siergey and Dr Maw are amazing. Thanks team!
