Amazingly and awesome! That is what I can say about my office visit. Thank you Dr. Latter, and…read moreyour office staff, for my terrific experience. I was worried about the flashes of light I experienced in my peripheral vision, so I called the ophthalmologist my SIL recommended but was unable to get an appointment for over 3 weeks, I read the reviews for Dr. Latter and decided to give them a call...I was glad I did! Not only did I get an appointment sooner than I expected but I was able to get an appointment the same day! The office itself is clean & tidy, the receptionist greeted me warmly and the assistant took my information quickly and concisely. I did not have to wait long. Dr. Latter came into the exam room just moments afterwards. He was extremely thorough, taking his time examining my eyes, explaining my diagnosis (vitreous separation) & reassuring me that all will be well with my eyesight. I would definitely recommend using Dr. Latter as your personal ophthalmologist, because I intend to keep him as mine.

Dr Latter is a wonderful opthamologist. He's very thorough, very professional, and very caring with…read morehis patients. He takes his time with all the exams. My kids has been going to Dr Latter for years now. I also had my parents go to get their eyes checked with Dr Latter as well. He's one of the best opthamologist by far. As for the front desk, the ladies are so sweet. Zuma and the Asian lady (sorry I forgot your name) are the two most kindest, sweetest women I've ever met. They always greet you with big smile on their face.

I went for my free consultation and same day lasik surgery (if I was approved to be a good…read morecandidate). My experience overall was great. Staff was all friendly and explained everything very well. They knew what they were talking about. They were thorough with everything. The only reason why I didn't give a 5 start was the wait time. My appointment was at 2 .. it took about 30 minutes of waiting after I filled out my paperwork to get called in for all the test. After that there was a wait to get the actual consultation. Then after that I waited to see dr lee. He was very professional, confident in his work and honest which I appreciated. I was a good candidate so he approved me for lasik surgery. Then still waited around for my turn to get the actual procedure. Finally, around 6 pm I got my lasik procedure. It was a bit nerve wrecking but it was quick... the time I went into the operating room til I got out, it must have been less than 10 minutes. Here's how it went: Lay down. Dr. Lee tapes down your forehead down with tape... I almost laughed because it was so unexpected. Then he puts drops to numb your eyeballs. Waited a few seconds for it work in full effect. Then he puts this clamp on your eye to hold your eye lids open. The nurse puts more eye drops to prevent your eye from drying. I don't know if it was because my eyes are small but the clamp hurt as he winding it open. It stretched open your eyes really wide. I just kept starring at the red light in front. Then Dr. Lee said that this is the part where I'll feel a little bit of pressure. A round black thing covers your eyes and I think that was the laser machine that cut your cornea. That lasted probably for like 3 seconds. Then once the cornea was lifted, everything went SUPER blurry. My eye sight was already really bad (-8) but it was even more blurry. But I could still see the red light. Then, the actual laser part. He warned me that it will smell like something is burning and I will hear a clicking sound. That's the laser. So he zaps it for about 30 or 40 seconds and the whole time I just kept on looking at the red light not trying to move my eye ball. Then he cleaned the surface with more drops.... and then put the cornea back... adjusted the cornea making sure it's on properly by wiping it down... more drops... On to the next eye. It only lasted a few minutes for each but knowing what to expect on my second it was a little more scary for me...but knew that it would be done quickly. However, my second eye hurt more when he clamped it open! I think that pain distracted me of feeling any other anxiety or fear of the procedure. I was so relieved when he removed the clamp. I don't think other people really felt that uncomfortable with the clamp but it was pretty uncomfortable for me, more so on my left eye. Maybe it is because my eyes are small. LOL The recovery is another story. They give you instructions on how to take care of your eye following the procedure. I'm sure each doctor's office is a little different. Here were some of the steps I remember I had to do. First week, there are 2 drops you have to put in your eye every 4 hours - antibiotics and steroids. And they give you vitamins to help for your eyes. Then week 2, you just keep using one drop twice a week. Apply eye drop as needed when it feels dry. You can't get water in your eye for the first 24 hours so shower before your appointment. You can't do eye make up for the first month or apply eye cream the first week. You can't rub your eyes for 3 months. You can't swim either of course for 3 months. I was happy to go home in the evening and just sleep. They give you some pills afterwards. I think one is an anti-anxiety pill and 2 others.... I forget but I remember feeling really drowsy afterwards. You can't drive home after the procedure so you need to have a ride ready. I'm glad mine was in the evening so I just went home and slept. You have to sleep with goggles they give you to prevent yourself from rubbing your eyes or sleeping on your face. It was good I had them on because my toddler son threw a ball at me the next day. I kept them on during the day while I was at home because I know I'm clumsy and with young kids, you never know when they'll poke your eye. I went back for my 1 day follow up appoint. I drove myself during the day. It was great. My eye sight wasn't 20/20 right away but good enough to see and rive without glasses or anything! HALLELUJAH! Night time driving is a bit different. All the lights are very bright and halo-y. They said not to drive at night until you feel comfortable. It's been about 2 months since my procedure. I got it in January. For my 1 month follow up, I was seeing 20/20. Overall. I LOVE IT! my life has changed. I am so happy with the results. AND It was very affordable!!!!! Don't even both shopping around. You probably won't find a better deal. :)

I would give zero stars if I could. The "surgeon" here (Dr. Joseph Lee) cares more about money than…read morethe actual patient. After several consults, we settled on a price that was reasonable for the surgery. All the sudden on the final consult before scheduling the surgery, the surgeon complains that the price is too low for the amount of work he needs to do on my eye and that he would have to make incisions on my eyelids (causes scarring and is extremely painful). He has never made that comment before until now. Apparently it will make the work "easier" for him for how much it will cost and that other lasik doctors would do the same. I went and consulted with two other surgeons (most likely more reputable than him) and mentioned that. None of them said they would need to do that for my eye. Dr. Lee here is a liar! He acts like he is the only eye surgeon who performs lasik around here and criticizes others. He states he does not care about money but has the nerve to tell me that the amount he would be getting from me is all the sudden too cheap. He also says he is a humble guy but during every single consult he spends the entire time talking about himself. This guy even admitted he "experiments" without our consent. He told me the story of how he placed alcohol in the eyes of one of his clients because she developed an infection. He said it's not fda approved but did it anyways. I don't know about you, but I personally don't want to be an experiment to anyone. Avoid this doctor at all costs. There are plenty of other lasik surgeons out there who do much better jobs and are honest.
