"Years of wearing contacts."Jon, St. Paul, MN Vision Center: Oakdale, MN | |
"Only have one regret concerning my experience with LasikPlus and that is the fact that I didn't have the procedure done sooner. My experience with my local office from the first consultation, to the surgery and the follow up process was nothing but wonderful. The entire staff was always friendly and professional always answering any questions or concerns that I had. I'm still amazed at how quick, easy and pain free the entire process was. The staff made me comfortable and talked me through the entire procedure. How could I not be happy with 20/15 vision? I went back to my optometrist for an annual check up a year after my procedure and he could not believe that I had Lasik done and stated it was the best job he had ever seen. If you ever need a spokesperson or a reference, you can count on me as I'm your number one fan. Thanks a million!"Tim, O'Fallon, MO Vision Center: StLouis, MO | |
| "I've worn glasses or contacts ever since I could walk! I've lost contacts in swimming pools, during water sports and activities, on motorcycles, in the office, at the gym, on an airplane. I've slept in and sometimes on my glasses rendering them pretty much useless. I've suffered eye infections, strains, pain, dryness and blurriness during the years of wearing contacts and glasses. Nothing but aggravation, expensive frames and lenses, costly supplies, doctor visits and big bills. Now I'm free from the hassles and able to live my life freely. No more having to worry about traveling with eye care supplies at all times. My eyes are no longer keeping me from the activities I love to do. I can't imagine going back to the days before LASIK! I wish I would've done LASIK earlier!" Marta, Arlington Heights, IL Vision Center: Schaumburg, IL | |
| "I've never been happier in my life i don't ever remember the time when i use to be able to wake up and see everything and now i can! i just get up and go see my son first thing in the morning now! Thank You!" Amber, Loveland, OH Vision Center: Cincinnati, OH | |
"I wanted to have LASIK done for years but decided that I could not afford it so I never looked into it. My vision was so bad that I could barely see anything in front of me, all I could see was shadows. In 2006, I had to have a C-Section to deliver my son and I was not permitted to wear contacts or take my glasses into the operating room. My husband had to put my son right up in my face so that I could see him, and this did not happen until after he was already cleaned and wrapped up in his blanket, and I felt that I missed out on the delivery of my son because I was unable to see him when the doctor lifted him up for my husband and I to see him and while the nurses were getting him cleaned up under the warming lamp. All I could see was shadows all around me. To have a child and not be able to see him until I went back into the Labor and Deliver room and put my glasses on was a very sad and upsetting experience for me. I had infertility problems and was not sure if I would ever conceive so needless to say I could not wait to meet my son. So, to have to wait until I was back in the Labor and Delivery Room to see him was not easy. I felt like I missed out on a beautiful event. I could hear everything going on around me but could not see any of it. And, once we got him home I was sleeping in my glasses because I was afraid I was going to miss something. Within a few months after he was born I went to LasikPlus Vision Center to have LASIK and it was a good thing I went when I did because I was on the border-line of not being able to have the procedure due to my eye-sight. I was scheduled to have the procedure the following week and I had to have another eye check right before I went back because I was told if my vision had changed even a little in that week then they would not be able to perform the procedure. Luckily, I had the procedure and had instant results and went back to work the next day. It was not painful and I have suggested to everyone I know who may need LASIK to have it done. The staff was nice, helpful and very informative and paying for it was easy with the zero percent interest plan. I am happy to say that I just had my daughter in January of 2008 by C-Section and this time thanks to LasikPlus Vision Center I was able to see everything and it was wonderful. I was able to leave the operating room not feeling like I missed out on one of the greatest experiences of my life."Crystal, Plant City, FL Vision Center: Tampa, FL | |
| "For many years I had jokingly said that I will get a different colored dog instead of glasses, because my eyesight was so very awful and I felt that the next trip to the eye doctor would be, him just telling me to get a seeing eye dog. I had talked to a friend that had Lasik surgery and she absolutely was thrilled with what it did for her. So I thought what do I have to lose, go get ckeck out, they probably can't do anything for me anyway, I will just stay almost blind. Boy, was I ever so wrong, the staff and doctors were so nice and understood how much I wanted to be able just to see a clock without glasses( as thick as coke bottles) I am amazed how much I have missed seeing with those glasses. I have and will continue to tell everyone that I met about LasikPlus and the fantasic job that the doctors and staff do there" Eloise, Cincinnati, OH Vision Center: Cincinnati, OH | |
"Absolutely amazing! I can SEE! No more halos on headlights at night when I drive. I can see street signs! I can read the smallest of print on anything! I have recommended my friends to have Lasik Surgery. The staff was SO friendly, helpful and understanding. The best Christmas present I gave myself was my surgery. I have a new job as a delivery driver, and I travel out of state four days a week. Reading signs, maps and anything I can lay eyes on WITHOUT glasses is a blessing! The only glasses I wear now are cool sunglasses! I am pleased 100% with my surgery and would be happy to tell the world!"Annie, Appleton, WI Vision Center: GreenBay, WI | |
"My boyfriend Ilya and I came for LASIK together. It was the best decision we could have made. Not wearing glasses has given me a new confidence. It has made my life so much easier. I'm not scared to drive at night anymore. I can read signs on the road, and now have a habit of reading everything out loud from far distances because it amazes me that I can see it. We are so happy with our surgery."Zlata, New York City, NY Vision Center: Paramus, NJ | |
