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
100% the best experience ever. The entire staff was amazing, upbeat, happy and informative. Everything went smoothly and the following morning I woke up and SAW my alarm clock! My only regret is that I didn’t do this sooner.
I could not have asked for a better experience! Everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable! I was very anxious, they all provided reassurance and even held my hands during the procedure. I had done my research for LASIK options, I like that they do payment plans and had specials for better pricing! Do it!! You won’t regret it!!
I just got my lasik done and the experience has been amazing. The staff was so helpful and kind and was sure to answer any questions or concerns I may have had. It was also one of the more cost effective places I was able to find around here. Overall I would definitely recommend coming here and I had an amazing experience:)
I was nervous as heck when I walked in for the procedure but once I got some calming drugs and eye numbing drops it got better. During the laser part was kind of cool. I didn't feel a thing. Watching the green and red lights during the laser process took me back to a Pink Floyd concert I went to years ago. The best was waking up from my nap and I turned the tv on and I could see!! It was a great experience and the staff are top notch from the consultation to the procedure. If you are thinking about doing it, just pull the trigger and go for it!
Really nice people and a really great easy experience. The price was a bit affordable because of the promotion. Just make sure you have your payment plan ready to go so you know what to expect. Overall, really satisfied with my experience. Would recommend and I can see better than I could with my contacts.
