Guess who’s not wearing glasses anymore!! I cannot be more pleased with the results! This team is AMAZING! And yes I most definitely recommend to anyone who is nervous or a little scared to get lazik I was on that boat too! I am so happy i decided to go through with it. It’s been 4 days and I am just beyond happy 😊 Thank you LazikPlus!!
Super helpful staff and Dr. Smith is an excellent surgeon! They made sure all my questions were answered before the procedure. Amazing experience overall!! Lasikplus was literally life changing and I can now see 20/15, something I never imagined I would be able to do in my life. Highly highly recommend this place!
I had a wonderful experience at Lasik Plus in Plano. I ultimately chose this location because of Dr. Smith's experience with military fighter pilots and am glad I did. The staff is so helpful, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Katie was so patient with me during my initial eye exam and while she discussed the procedure and my options with me. Dr. Michael Do was gentle and kind, and was patient with me during his part of my exam and consultation and really took time to answer my questions. I only had one: which option was best for me. Even the financing staff was great. I had a smooth procedure and my recovery has been great. I'm less than a week into recovery and wake up every morning in awe of the world around me because I wasn't able to enjoy the view without putting on my glasses first. I'm 45 (for those of you older birds who aren't sure if this is for you) and chose to have my eyes corrected to eagle eyes as opposed to mono vision in each eye. I am so pleased with my results and highly recommend Lasik Plus of Plano.
I am so glad I did this! The LASIK Plus team was so awesome and helpful! My husband and I both had it done! We were in and out in less than an hour! 100% I definitely recommend LASIK Plus for your LASIK!
LasikPlus staff is awesome. They were very informative and led me step by step of what to expect. If I had to do it again I would with LasikPlus
