SAVED MY SIGHT!…read more After dealing with hack Doctors in the Eye Care Centre realm I found Dr Kuo. His staff to a person are all top notch and he is amazing! He immediately prescribed meds that reversed my rapidly declining vision and conservatively followed-up regularly. When I asked about surgery, he was quick to advise that we'd pursue less extreme treatment first. I'm at about 90% recovered and it's all thanks to Dr Kuo.

Having perfect vision is a dream come true! I've been wearing glasses/contacts as a child, and I…read moreguess the past few years has been my nudge to just get through my bucket list. Correcting my vision was one of them. I knew I wanted/needed LASIK but wasn't serious until this year. I shopped around a bit and scheduled several consultations. What stood out about Travers LASIK is that Dr. Lori Travers performs all of her surgeries herself and has completed over 60,000 surgeries. Impressive. I've learned that when it comes to health you should always choose a doctor who is an EXPERT at their field, and hyper focused on one thing, not dipping their hand at the pot with 5 different things. Her credentials along with her extremely well run office was the reason I chose Travers LASIK over the other options in the Triangle. To note however; Travers is a smidge more costly than the others but you are paying for precision and you're paying for her 20+ years of experience, which is well worth its weight in gold imo. After the surgery, I came out with 20/15 vision, which is better than 20/20 vision. Here was my experience and here are the things I learned. Yes, you do spend a lot of time at the free LASIK consultations and the surgery day itself, as they need to perform tests and take pictures of your eyes with many different devices and expect to see A LOT of people at every appointment. Yes, it does feel like an assembly line / factory but honestly, I was okay with that. I wasn't there to socialize nor did I feel the need to chit chat beyond what I was there for. Everyone was professional, kind and very knowledgeable. I barely spoke to Dr. Travers, the majority of the time I spent talking with her team from one test to another. I only met Dr. Travers in the surgery room and she asked if I had any questions and explained mono vision to me (although I ended up going with distance vision) and I was in and out of the surgery room within less than 10 minutes, as advertised. The actual procedure: If you can't sit still and focus, LASIK might not be for you. (I learned that people with diabetes and/or hormonal changes, pregnant, etc.. shouldn't also have LASIK either) Recovery: from all the reading and research and asking people about LASIK, no one really talks about the recovery. People usually rave about the results which while are impressive, it's important to know what to expect also. After the surgery, you are sent away with plastic shields taped to your face to protect your eyes (and prevent you from touching them) and are directed to sleep when you get home. I couldn't sleep for 6 hours as they suggest, and probably slept for about 3. Your eyes feel very tired and your eyelids feel glued due to the stickiness and crust forming in your eyes. It's annoying to not be able to clean your eyes due to the shields that can't be taken off until the very next morning. You just have to deal with it. The next morning, you take off the shields and your new life begins, you should be able to see very clearly, it's remarkable! One thing to note also is that after age 40, they made it very clear that you might have to use readers (reading glasses) as LASIK is unable to correct near vision, which is natural -- and inevitable with age. I am now 1 week post surgery and am doing excellent. I can see far away and feel like a new person just about. I do still wear (blue light) glasses to reduces eye strain while on the computer which is fine by me, I just love having vision for distance that isn't dependent on glasses. I use eyedrops on my eyes extremely often however, because I want the healing of my cornea's to go as smooth as possible. I expect to taper off in about 3 or 6 months, as needed. Two week update: while I can generally see well, sometimes things far away that I'd expect to be able to read, are blurry. I've read this is normal until the eye completely heals. Also, nighttime driving isn't superb, and things are not as crisp either. I am hoping over the next month that will sort itself out also and that I can see more clearly also. If you're considering or on the fence, go for a free consultation.. you'll learn a lot about your eyes! And hopefully you're a candidate, and hopefully you'll take the leap of faith! Disclaimer: as with any surgery, there are always risks and sometimes short term, and occasional long term side effects. Dry eyes, halos, starbursts, non-crisp night vision, etc. I personally understood all the risks and went with it. But be sure to talk it all through thoroughly with your doctor so you know what you're signing up for. Good luck!

Dr. Travers did my LASIK surgery in 2004 when she was with LASIKPlus. It was the best decision I…read moreever made. My vision was so bad that all I could see was light/dark, shapes, and my fingers in front of my face! I needed to put on glasses just to go to the bathroom at night! I went in thinking and accepting that I'd still need glasses afterwards, and was fine with that. I just wanted SOMETHING better than I had! I never dreamed I'd come out of it never needing a pair of glasses and two pairs of contacts per year again - ever! The surgery was quick and painless. Dr, Travers talked me through it and kept me calm and concentrating. I got up and could read the clock and posters across the room! Two weeks later I had the Corrective Lenses requirement removed from my driver's license! The difference, 17 years later, never ceases to amaze me. I walk down the street and can see the veins in leaves, birds in trees, and all the beauty in our world. The value of sight to an avid reader is priceless. Have your procedure with Dr. Travers!! Her success rate is, literally, in the tens of thousands and counting. She is very professional and her staff is great. Thank you, Dr. Travers!!!

I was amazed at the patience, at the amount of time spent with me; I never once got the feeling that I was being rushed to make a decision or that he had "other things to do". Dr. Adler and his assistant both made me feel as if they were there for me and me alone. When my appointment was complete, I literally wanted to hug the doctor and his assistant ( I cannot remember his name, possibly Mark), and I am not a touchy-feeling kind of person. THANK YOU, Dr. Adler, for being YOU. In this day and time of "rushing", you went 'old school' and made my day. ABSOLUTELY WORTH EVERY PENNY, and I rarely feel that way.

Anyway, I had my own designer frames that I bought online and brought them in with me to have lenses made. I really wanted these done quickly, and since my prescription was about to expire, I made a quick appointment for a vision exam elsewhere that weekend and faxed the new script on Monday. I confirmed they received it and they said they could put a rush on my order. I was going out of town on May 7 and I really wanted to have them by then. It was apparently no problem, they said they'd be ready Friday the 1st. So when I called Friday, they weren't ready because when I added the anti-reflective coating, that adds another 2-3 days (which no one told me). I was about to tell them to nevermind with the coating but I thought, it's OK, I still have plenty of time to get them by the 7th. So, today (may 5) they were supposed to be ready, and I called and was informed that the lab messed up one of the lenses and now has to re-do it. So it would be another week at least. So, now there's no way I will have them for my trip this weekend. I spent over $500 on these glasses - frames online, lenses here, eye exam on a weekend just so I could get it done faster -- all for nothing. I should have just taken my prescription by hand to the LensCrafters and had it done in one day (and my insurance would have covered a huge piece of it). Never again. The doctors they are affiliated with - Raleigh Ophthalmology -- are great, I recommend them highly, but just get your glasses somewhere else. Right now I'm just hoping that they're not totally screwed up when I finally ever get them. They were my dream frames and I have zero expectations now. UPDATE: Got the glasses, and the actual quality is great. Exactly what they were supposed to be. Bumping this up to two stars.
