I had eye surgery with Dr. Hratch Kourouyan several years ago, and the results have been outstanding. I couldn't be happier with the experience and results. Even after all this time, my vision remains excellent, and I continue to appreciate the positive impact the procedure has had on my daily life. The doctor is professional, knowledgeable, and he was reassuring throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain the procedure clearly and made me feel confident in my decision.

I had a great experience with Dr. Kourouyan. I am about 2 months post PRK surgery and I am already seeing better than 20/20.

He will also never rush through a visit and will explain everything so thoroughly you could practically do the surgery yourself. Dr. Kourouyan is the only doctor I would recommended for LASIK and PRK surgery. read more

I had very poor eyesight, and for a long time I hesitated about whether to go through with the procedure. I was recommended Dr. Kuruyan, and now I can confidently say that it was one of the best decisions of my life. The results exceeded all my expectations. What I used to see blurry or couldn't see at all, I now see clearly and sharply. Even the smallest print is perfectly visible to me without glasses or contact lenses, which once seemed absolutely impossible. The feeling is incredible, and my quality of life has truly changed for the better. I would especially like to highlight the doctor himself. Dr. Kuruyan is a true professional and a very attentive physician. He explains everything in such detail and so calmly that no questions or doubts remain. You fully understand every step of the procedure in advance and can clearly imagine how it will go, which brings a great sense of confidence and peace of mind. The procedure itself was quick and completely painless. Everything was organized at the highest level. After the procedure, the doctor is always available -- you can call at any time to ask questions, clarify details, or share how you are feeling. This level of care provides an enormous sense of support and reassurance. I am truly happy that I chose Dr. Kuruyan. He is a highly knowledgeable, responsible, and caring specialist.

I had a great experience with doctor Kourouyan during my laser procedure!:) I had almost a -5 prescription before the laser, and could not leave the house without contacts or glasses. So the laser was my big dream! Luckily, my friend also did laser with doctor Kourouyan, of course she is very happy, and she recommended that I see him to get rid of my glasses and contact lenses. Now my vision is excellent! I can see the smallest letters on the eye chart, I can easily drive and work without my contact lenses!! I'm extremely happy with the result and grateful to the doctor. The doctor is very caring and attentive to details. He explained everything to me very clearly during the office visits before and after the laser procedure to make sure I knew exactly what I had to do. I wish all doctors were as generous and responsible like doctor Kourouyan. If you want your dream of good vision to come true, choose doctor Kourouyan and you will be happy and free from your eye glasses and contact lenses !:) read more

Dr kourouyan he ruined my eyes after Lasik and went back to him over five times and he keep telling me use refresh tears and nothing changed

Before the surgery Doctor gave me instructions where he was very specific and detailed. After the surgery he called to follow up how am I doing, and to make sure that I am following up his instructions. The surgery went perfect and after the surgery, I didn't have any pain. read more

Dr. Kourouyan changed my life! I've had terrible visions since I was 9 years old and I was wearing glasses and contact lenses until my procedure last year in August 2024. I had -6 prescription for both eyes. Dr. Kourouyan was highly recommended by all my friends and family members...at least 15 people. My brother had his procedure done back in 2004 and he still has 20/20 vision. From my first visit, I whole heartedly trusted Dr. Kourouyan because of his experience, education, knowledge, and genuine care. He is incredibly knowledgeable and detailed during him the exam and consultation. He allowed me to ask all my questions and voice my concerns. I felt comfortable and confident that I was in great hands. I can't believe I have 20/20 vision. It's absolutely mind blowing and unbelievable. Thank you so much Dr. Kourouyan and his entire team!!! read more

Dr. Kourouyan is THE best in the business. I had PRK (photo-refractive keratectomy) with him in 2017 and just had an annual visit with him today. My vision is STILL better than 20/20. Prior to the procedure, my prescription contact lens was -2.5 and -2.25. Doesn't seem like a lot but I wasn't able to see my face in the mirror without contact lens, unless my face was 5-6 fingers away from the mirror. This procedure was a game changer for me! If you're wonder why PRK, I was not eligible for LASIK because of my eye shape. Personally, the only side effect I continue to have post-procedure is dry eyes in the morning. I use eye lubricant drops only in the morning and I feel great the rest of the day. I highly recommend him because he really knows what he's doing. I know two other people who had LASIK done with him years prior to me (that's why I chose him) and they continue to be happy with their results. read more

I can't begin to describe the joy of being able to see clearly again without glasses. Dr. Kourouyan is very detailed and specific, which is what everyone should want in a doctor who is going to operate on their eyes. He is a master at his craft and has restored my vision better than 20/20. If you're on the fence or thinking if you should go through with it, you should have done it yesterday. You won't be disappointed! read more

I can't recommend Dr. Kourouyan enough! He is hands down one of the most thorough and compassionate physicians I've ever encountered. After years of considering laser eye surgery, I decided to go ahead after hearing many recommendations from colleagues, friends, and family who had all received care from him--and they were absolutely right. From the very start, everything about the process was smooth and stress-free. Scheduling was easy, and Dr. Kourouyan's extensive experience and knowledge put me at ease right away. He took the time to explain every single detail of the procedure, and I truly appreciated it. To top it off, he even gave me his personal cell phone number to reach out with any concerns post-surgery. The results speak for themselves--after wearing glasses and contacts since second grade, I went from barely being able to see the big E on the eye chart or even seeing anyone sitting right next to me clearly to 20/20 vision in just a few weeks. It's been one of the best decisions I've ever made, and I highly recommend Dr. Kourouyan for anyone considering laser eye surgery! read more

I visited the doctor per my friend's recommendation who had a lasik surgery with Dr.Kourouyan, and I knew he would be my doctor from the first visit. He spent over 40 mins to explain the entire procedure step by step and explained eye structure, so I would understand what to expect. This doctor is the most caring and knowledgeable doctor I've ever met. I would definitely recommend him as you would not only have a great experience with him but will also know what to expect from the surgery. He explained me so well during consultation, I knew how I would walk to the surgery room, what the procedure would be and how I would walk out from the surgery room. He was always available after the surgery and ready to answer any questions I had. My coworkers were telling me that they were in a pain after surgery and smelled burn during the surgery but I did not have any pain during the surgery and after. This tells the professionalism of Dr Kourouyan. I will always be grateful to him for bringing my vision back and for the care he provided to me during the surgery and after. read more

Dr. Kourouyan completely changed my life. My vision is now perfect, and I can't believe how much easier everyday things have become without glasses or contacts. It still amazes me that I see even sharper than 20/20. I'm so grateful for the care I received, and I'd recommend him to anyone who wants the best for their eyes from the best in the world! read more

I am 5 months post op from PRK. My starting vision was -3 and now I see far greater than 20/20, likely 20/15 or 20/10 at this point. In brief, Dr. Kourouyan changed my life, I now see the world through a lens I never thought existed. To expand on my experience. Dr. Kourouyan provided a comprehensive experience. From the initial intake visit to my follow up, he took extensive, almost excessive care to describe in detail the surgery, what to expect, and how to care for my eyes post operatively. As someone who works with patients, Dr. Kourouyan's bedside manner and patience is unparalleled. He offers his personal contact for any questions.... I find that truly telling. His office is littered with thank you letters and tokens of appreciation from past patients. Needless to say, he is deserving of his praise and much more. Regarding his merit, he graduated from the Doheny eye institute, a fact that is not easily overlooked. The surgery itself was quick, virtually painless, and without need for any systemic medications. I never felt pain either during or after the surgery. I had PRK which had a 3 day post operative period of no vision. I'd recommend having family who can help in your functionally infantile state. Dr. Kourouyan offered detailed instructions for this period, and his care never strayed from the high standard he sets. He has no substitutes for his clinical care and carries out all his clinical duties himself - truly remarkable. In short, Dr. Kourouyan is the most remarkable ophthalmologist I've encountered. If I have any eye related issues in the future, he would be my first choice to address them. I recommend Dr. Kourouyan to my friends and family wherever possible, and if you're considering LASIK or PRK, I'd be hard pressed to find another equally capable surgeon, let alone one with the thoroughness and gregarious bedside manner of Dr. Kourouyan. read more

Dr. Kourouyan is an exceptional physician. He recommended I do PRK instead of LASIK and it was a true game changer. My eyesight went from not being able to see the largest letters without contacts to being able to see better than 20/20 within 2 months. What i appreciate most about him is that he eased my tension and stresses. He walked through EVERY SINGLE STEP with me (which never happens) - he completed all my tests personally, reviewed the exams with me, and walked me through the follow ups. I couldn't recommend him enough - his office was clean and everyone working there was very nice and accommodating. He also has very cool memorabilia. Highly recommend! read more

My experience with Dr. Hratch Kourouyan was truly life changing. From the moment I walked into the clinic, I felt like I was in the best possible hands. The office is clean, modern, and welcoming. The doctor exudes a calm confidence that immediately put me at ease. Every step of the laser eye surgery process, from the initial consultation to post-op checkups, was explained in detail, with all my questions answered patiently and thoroughly. Dr. Kourouyan's level of precision and care taken during my surgery was beyond impressive. My vision before laser was so bad, I couldn't see without my glasses. My vision now 2 months after PRK laser surgery is now even better than 20/20. I would not trust anyone besides Dr Kourouyan, a surgeon who's not only highly skilled but also deeply compassionate. This was one of the best decisions I've ever made and I wish I did it sooner. Thank you, Dr. Kourouyan, for giving me my vision back. read more

Best decision and choice I choose this doctor I went for free consultation , I was so happy from the time I met him he had so confident which make me feel comfortable and trust him. Best thing he explained everything from A to Z which I really like about him and I knew what to expect after surgery. Very happy and grateful with my surgery. Office is so clean and super friendly staff. Don't wait and waste time go for consultation and u feel the same. Thank you Dr Kourouyan read more

Dr. Kourouyan is without a doubt the best doctor I have ever met. I was referred to Dr. Kourouyan by several of my family members and co-worker who also had the same procedure done by him and I think that speaks volumes to the quality of care and experience you get from him. He is extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and detail oriented. He cares about his patients and takes the time to explain the entire process step by step, which truly put me at ease. He made me feel confident and comfortable going into laser eye surgery. The procedure itself was quick and painless. Before my PRK surgery, I was able to only see the first two rows of the eye exam chart, and now my vision is better than 20/20. I am now two months post surgery and I could not be happier with the results and cannot thank Dr. Kourouyan enough. My procedure was long overdue and I think like most people, my only regret is not having it done sooner. Thank you Dr. Kourouyan for leaving me with such a positive experience, you are amazing! read more

I had my PRK surgery about two months before, I got the best service ever. The doctor was with me from consultation to treatment process. 2 months ago I was seeing only the biggest letter- so much blurry, so NOW I can see the smallest and even the EXTRA-smallest letters. You can't imagine how happy I am!!! I believe that I met the best eye doctor ever, having the most reliable experience of my life! #happy #grateful read more

Long awaited review... After months of searching for a good Dr. I was recommended to come by Dr. K and I am so glad I did! I was fortunate enough to have PRK surgery in the month of June, and my main disappointment now is that I should have done it sooner. Dr. K is such an amazing doctor, full of knowledge, and enthusiasm towards his work. I spent years in contacts and eyeglasses... at an eye sight of -6. Now i'm seeing one line better than 20/20!! Thank you Dr. K for your exceptional work! Not only will you leave his office with crystal clear vision, but also everything you need to know about eyes! Thank you again, Dr. K! read more

If I can give Dr. Kourounyan stars I would! If you're ever thinking of doing lasik eye surgery he is the only doctor you should come to. From age of 15 I've been wearing contact lenses. And was always afraid to do any kind of surgery because I was afraid I might lose my eyesight completely. After 20 years of Contacts, I decided that it's time for me to do the surgery. Dr. Kourounyan explains everything so throughly that you have full trust in him to touch your eyes. And after 20 years now, I just left my three months after follow up and I have 20/20 vision. I couldn't be happier to wake up every morning and see everything clearly around me. I am forever grateful and can't think the doctor enough. read more

After wearing contacts and glasses for most of my life I finally decided to get laser surgery to correct my vision. I always had a problem with fuzzy sight and headaches. I was referred to Dr. Hratch Kourouyan by many of my friends and family that also had the procedure done. Upon my first visit, Dr. Kourouyan performed eye exams by himself and prepared me for PRK surgery. I am now 2 months post surgery and I could not thank him enough for giving me back my 20/20 vision. I recommend Dr. Kourouyan because he is thorough, precise, and simply the best! read more

See all

I was afraid to get laser correction for over 10 years. I thought about it many times, but I was really scared and got tired of using contact lenses. My vision was so poor that I could hardly see anything at all; I could only make out very large letters and couldn't read signs or see anything even a little far away. When I decided to see Dr. H. Kourouyan, I felt immediately reassured. He took the time to explain everything in detail, and I trusted him completely. He is a very caring and skilled doctor. The laser procedure was quick and painless, and after the surgery, I was amazed to find that my vision was better than 20/20! I truly regret not doing it sooner, but I hadn't found a doctor I trusted until I met Dr. H. Kourouyan. I am so thankful to him for making my dream of perfect vision come true. He is truly the best doctor in the world! read more

Dr. Kourouyan performed my lasik eye surgery 12 years ago and I had a follow-up appointment with him today to check my eyes again and they're STILL 20/20. My eyes are still perfectly healthy 12-years post surgery!!! He is the BEST and most HONEST Doctor in the entire world! He is truly exceptional! I recommend him to everyone. read more

Dr. Kourouyan is hands down the best and most caring doctor ever. He literally treats every patient like his own family member. He explained everything before the surgery, called my parents a few hours after my surgery to make sure I was ok. I went on a vacation and forgot to take my medication with me. I called him on the weekend and my prescription was sent to the pharmacy within 10 mins. Before my surgery I was only able to read the first 2 lines & I had to guess the 3rd & 4th line on the eye chart, but after my surgery my vision is 20/20. I'm able to read the tiny letters as well without squinting my eyes. I had zero complications after my surgery. I'm so pleased with my results and I will definitely recommend him! read more

I can't thank Dr. K enough. When i made the appointment for a lasik consultation i wasn't sure if i was gonna do the procedure but Dr. K explained everything in detailed and i walked out of his office ready for my procedure. He really cares about his patients and the job he perfoms. He's a perfectionist and he doesn't do it just to rip you off. He's so understanding and gentle as well. My procedure was long overdue but I'm glad I waited and got it done with the right Dr. Thank you again Dr K. You are amazing :) read more

Dr. Kourouyan is without a doubt the best doctor I've ever had in my life. So caring, attentive, careful and kind! My vision before was really bad, I could hardly see the biggest two letters when I did the eye exam and it was really uncomfortable for me to life and enjoy my life. And now it's been over 2 months after the surgery my vision is 20/20 and the doctor said it will get even better! I feel great and it definitely was the best decision in my life. I'm extremely satisfied with results and with the whole process, it was fantastic. Thank you so much dr K! Merci shat! If someone is looking for the doctor to do their laser eye correction, look no further, doctor K is the best in the world! read more

I was very anxious having to do PRK, but Dr. K has been so helpful in teaching me and calming down. I appreciate the care during the consultation and post-op. Best part was obtaining vision better than 20/20. Also to note, my recovery didn't really hurt and was better than expected. read more

My only regret is not getting LASIK done by Dr. Kourouyan sooner. I got my procedure done in March 2024, and my vision went from blurry to perfect 20/20 vision. It even improved much further to 20/15! Dr. Kourouyan loves what he does and it shows. He will take his time to explain the entire process to you, and holds your hand throughout the entire process. It was very simple, pain free, and easy. He is confident and skillful in his work and the results are literally more than perfect. Unlike other doctors, every examination is completed by him, which is why he is known for consistently getting perfect results. He cares about his patients and provides his cell phone number and is always easy to reach. I am so happy with the entire treatment process and results. Thank you :) read more
