Dr. Richard Maw's Bio and Credentials
Richard Maw, M.D. is board-certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology. He has performed over 38,000 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 was a great experience from start to finish. The staff especially Savannah was great in answering any questions that I had as well as walking me through the whole process.

Super friendly staff, kind caring, fast process. I went from -8.00 right eye and -6.50 with astigmatism in my left eye to 20/20 vision. I recommend this location! The environment is clean and well kept.
Lori J.
I have nothing but good things to say about my experience!! I went for a consultation and had my procedure done the same day. That was my choice the staff didn’t push that on me I was anxious to get it done. All of the staff was very sweet, informative and helpful in every way. LASIK is not cheap by any means but it is worth every penny. Glasses are annoying and they’re not cheap either so in my opinion I wish I would’ve done it a long time ago. I highly recommend lasik plus!!!
