Great group of people. I had been wanting LASIK for a long time and finally decided to do it. I hated that I waited so long. The procedure is super quick and they make sure you are comfortable during it. Definitely recommend LASIK +
Adil K.
I’m very happy with Dr. Edelstein and his entire team. I’m not being paid anything for this review. My eyesight is amazing the next day. It took a little while to get back for the procedure and I’m okay with that. I highly recommended.
Justin W.
Treatment was incredibly fast and easy. They made me feel very comfortable and put up with my questions. Dr Edelstein performed the operation and my eyes are now better than 2020.

LASIK surgery, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From the moment I walked into Dr. Edelstein's office, I felt at ease. The staff was incredibly welcoming and professional, guiding me through every step of the process with care and expertise. Dr. Edelstein himself was exceptional. He took the time to explain the procedure in detail, answering all my questions and addressing my concerns with patience and understanding. His confidence and calm demeanor immediately put me at ease. The surgery itself was quick and painless, just as promised. Dr. Edelstein's steady hands and thorough preparation made the entire experience seamless. Post-surgery, I was amazed at how clear my vision was, even just a few hours later. Recovery was a breeze, thanks in part to the detailed aftercare instructions I received from Dr. Edelstein and his team. My vision has been perfect ever since, and not having to rely on glasses or contact lenses has been life-changing. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Edelstein to anyone considering LASIK surgery. His skill, professionalism, and genuine care for his patients make him a standout choice in the field of ophthalmology.

Dr Edilstein was amazing & the whole staff was so helpful from beginning to end. I had the monovision done so I can still read. Feel free to use me as a reference for a discount on your lasik. I now have 20/25 vision...well worth every penny
