Let me start off by saying that if you are curious about lasik and are looking at a bunch of reviews to compare lasik options, stop right here because you will not find a better lasik experience than with Dr. Khosrof and his team. The care that the team at I Love Lasik provided was truly above and beyond any chain lasik institute. I had a -4 prescription in both eyes, and relied on wearing contacts from the moment I woke up to the moment before I fell asleep. Thankfully, that has changed and I have zero regrets with choosing this lasik center, and nothing to offer but glowing praise.
During the free consultation, more tests were done on my eyes than any optometrist visit I've ever been to. The staff made sure to get every test result as accurate as possible, encouraging me when I accidentally blinked or started tearing up. You can tell that they want to be as thorough as possible, even during a free consultation, because they realize how important this decision is and genuinely want you to have a positive experience. At the end of the testing, Dr. Khosrof spoke with me personally and made sure I was fully knowledgeable about lasik (the procedure, the difference between lasik and PRK, recovery time, etc.), which was such a nice personal touch. My biggest fear when contemplating lasik was a random doctor cutting into my eye then never speaking to me again. Here, I felt as if I was in great hands. So much so that I immediately scheduled my appointment for the following week.
On the day of the surgery they repeated many of the tests to make sure everything was absolutely accurate. Again, this thoroughness felt so comforting. The procedure itself was fast, painless, and several of the staff talked me through a lot of the waiting, which really helped with the nerves. You really feel like you're in capable, caring hands the entire time. All in all, the entire procedure couldn't have taken more than 10 minutes (which was mostly prep stuff like numbing my eyes). I was given eye shields, a bag of items I'd need the next day, a detailed reminder/rundown of all the do's and don'ts, and sent on my way home. Unfortunately, the person who was supposed to pick me up was sick. I couldn't see through my eye shields very well post-op, so the staff took my phone, ordered my Uber, waited with me outside in the cold, double checked the license number, and opened the door to put me inside!!! Truly I have never had a more caring medical experience.
The results are almost immediate, and honestly feel miraculous. The next day my eyes were a little light sensitive, but after resting all day I went out for dinner with friends and had zero issues. My check up with Dr. Khosrof revealed that I now have 20/20 eyesight, and my corneas are healing perfectly. He truly did a fantastic job. And yes, they check in with you even after they have your money! You don't just feel like they took your money and want nothing to with you! 3 checkups (one within 1-3 days, one within a week, and one within a month) were easy to schedule and as pleasant and thorough as I came to expect with this team.
All in all, I could not have asked for a better experience. If you want lasik, get it done here. read more
