A while back, an eye surgeon friend told me in confidence that Dr. Bansal was the best eye surgeon…read morein Northern CA. Bansal invested in the latest technology and was the most skilled. I had astigmatism and far sightedness. Dr. Bansal solved both for me 15 years ago and I'm still going strong. I'll likely need something done again in the future and will go see Dr. Bansal again. Why would anyone NOT invest in their eyes - or risk it with anyone other than the best!?!? UPDATE: I've had two friends also use Dr. Bansal with similar stellar results. He has also turned away friends that didn't need surgery (very professional).

During surgery day, they are me feeling comfortable, reassured all my worried and walked through everything step by step during my surgery day and today during the follow-up. I had very bad vision before, a -9.0 prescription and there was hesitation on the final overall work. Well the DR preformed his magic and got me to 20/20!! For someone who has had glasses all their life, and contacts the last 13 years- I wish I did it sooner. The recovery was so quick- already today I am seeing everything and resting as instructed. All the staff at Laservue Eye Center are friendly, welcoming and the best staff I have met hope during all my visits. Thank you LaserVue and Dr Bansal for my 20/20 vision!

I went to Dr. Yohai due to severe double vision. After a thorough examination Dr. Yohai told me…read morethat I had significant strabismus in both eyes. A complicated situation that required surgery.

My eyesight is excellent now. I highly recommend Dr. Yohai for all of your vision needs. He's the best!

When the surgery was completed he was unable to see clearly with his near vision. On the follow up, we were told that a fragment was left and another surgery would need to be done.

I should have been skeptical about a doctor who conducts a skin care business while serving as an opthomologist!

He spent a good amount of time discussing my prescription with me. Also, he's got the latest in computerized optical diagnostic tools. If you want scans and photos using all of these newer devices, it costs an extra $80 to get all the tests done (beyond the normal exam price) so a complete exam with scans and photos is around $160 but this is a bargain.

Best eye dr in Santa Rosa,…read more Stavan was my Doctor of Optometry for decades. His holistic approach to eye care leads to better care. I didn't know how good his was till I moved to LA, and had to try and find someone as good. Having a real doctor make, fill, verify, and fit your prescription makes a big difference, And it leads to better results with glasses. (You're less likely to experience eye stain, headache, and eye fatigue.) There is a decent selection of glasses, and the office is clean. He got me hooked on "flexon" style frames. Which can handle a beating, and are less likely to break. I can't imagine going back to "normal" glasses. If you haven't tried them. It's really worth trying them.

Hollis Stavn did a great job on my eye exam, I am sure everyone has different eyes and issues and he went through a lot of effort to pinpoint where I needed more visual support.

Let me start by saying I was referred here by my at the time new Optometrist, who after the surgery…read moredisclosed that I was the 1st patient he referred there. For a fee. 1) You will be given one-sided information about LASIK. 2) If you have a higher correction, you will have to wear glasses again in the future. 3) They will not tell you this. 4) The Surgeon who does your operation is contracted by PLEC, there will be a disconnect between PLEC and the Surgeon resulting in confusion for your after surgery follow up. 5) If you contact PLEC after the surgery they will not answer any questions and refer you to the Surgeon, who will require you to make an appointment and visit their office at additional cost to you. 6) They will attempt to have you finance through GE Care Credit, which appears as a Credit Card on your Credit reports. They will not disclose this. You can not use this card as you would a normal Credit Account and this results in a variety of issues for you in the event that you apply for other credit. I.E... home loans, auto finance or opening other CC accounts. It basically looks like you have x-amount of credit available to you or if it's just after surgery like you have a Maxed Out Credit Card, but it's unusable anywhere but Doctors, Dentists and Vets who accept GE Care Credit. I honestly regret choosing PLEC for my LASIK procedure. The Operator (Sal) is very cordial but he's a Salesman, not a Doctor. PLEC basically owns the LASIK equipment and has local Eye Surgeons come in and perform your procedure for them. I recommend finding a Surgeon who owns and operates their own clinic and uses full disclosure .

I finally decided to have lasik surgery. I've worn glasses since junior high and moved to contacts…read moreabout eight years ago. I'm not a very good contact lens wearer. I believe I'm what one refers to as "crap" when it comes to wearing contacts. I had the type you can leave in for one month. You're supposed to take them out and clean them every couple days. Sadly, I have no concept of time. Long story short, I ended up with infections, etc... I decided to go for lasik and asked my ophthalmologist for a recommendation. He sent me to Pacific. First I had to find out if I was a candidate. I went to the clinic, where I spoke with the very nice receptionist gal and met with the clinic director, Sal Moreno, who seemed to know just about everything when it came to lasik. He's pretty frank; there are no guarantees and he makes sure you're aware of that. Once they'd determined I was a candidate, I came in and was acquainted with the operating room and got to check out all the equipment. Sal outlined exactly what would happen on the day of surgery. They also sent me home with printed instructions. Although, I felt pretty confident after the tour. I really appreciate that they take you into the area and show you everything. It makes the whole experience a bit less surreal. My surgeon was Dr Rich. Earlier, I'd had my friend, an ophthalmologist in another area, check out both surgeons at Pacific and she'd given me the thumbs up. So, in I went. They offered a couple types of sedatives. Oh, gee, I forgot to mention you aren't anaesthetized. When I first learned that (several months ago from a friend), I couldn't believe it. "Wait a minute! Hold on. You're telling me they use a laser on your eyeball while you're freakin' staring at it?!" Insert casual shrug from friend. "Yeah, but I couldn't feel it." "Oh sure", I thought. "Riiiight." Well, it turns out it's true. Anyway, I had the milder sedative, because for some crazy reason, I wasn't worried. That's probably due to all the information provided and the preparation I'd gone through with Pacific. Plus, I have the emotional IQ of a kumquat. Hah, just kidding. More like a stick of balsa wood. Moving right along... The actual procedure was exactly as Dr Rich and Mr Moreno had described to me. The worst part was the device that holds your eyeball. It's a bit painful, but mostly just feels really weird. The procedure is really fast. Dr Rich and Mr Moreno are a well oiled machine, moving efficiently and confidently, but ever so carefully. They describe what's going on and chat comfortably together. I felt I was in good hands. The first thing I said after the procedure was, "I can see your facial features!" It was pretty amazing. But, boy was I tired. My buddy drove me home and I snoozed and then listened to podcasts and audiobooks to amuse myself... no reading! (I'm a big reader.) I was religious about the eye drops. My eyes healed well. Dr Rich warned me, as did my ophthalmologist, that my eyesight would continue to adjust and change, which it did. It's been two months now and I'm very happy I had lasik. My experiences at Pacific were definitely of the five-star variety. I highly recommend them!
