I researched ICLs quite extensively before choosing to do this surgery because I wanted to make sure I was informed, especially after reading of some cases that didn't go well. I visited 2 other clinics in LA, one that was quite famous, and one that was a bit more modest. From the first one, I was wary of the extremely profit/business-driven mentality of both the surgeon and all his staff (that's just how they came across in my opinion), and while the latter was nice, they seemed a bit less top-notch in skill (they seemed experienced enough with Lasik, but less so with ICLs). I got so tired of overthinking the whole thing that I took a break from searching and considered sticking with contacts/glasses. Then, one day my mindset shifted to be less overwhelmed by the idea, and I searched online and happened to stumble upon IQ as being a place that was reviewed to be good to their patients and good with communicating, etc. And from my first visit onwards, I can confirm this is true. I was struck with how they had the best of the two other clinics I mentioned: the first one's expertise and the heart of the second. The whole team at IQ is very professional, yet also very humane, and they were never pushy with me. They finally helped me feel ready to go for it, and not by manipulating me, but simply by being open and ready to answer any questions I had in a very neutral and fair way. I also have to give a shoutout to Danielle, the consultant/counselor (she's like a liason to help explain the overall procedure+cost to you before you speak with the surgeon) - she's genuinely great. I'm now 5 months into living with ICLs - the actual surgery site healed early on - and I can actually say it was worth it. It's admittedly a pretty expensive procedure in general, but I have to say, if you can do it - it's so comfortable and convenient, and I am so grateful that the team was so meticulously careful with their measurements and that it all went well. Our eyes are such a crucial part of the body that I really feared the worst case scenario with mismanagement, but IQ did great. I waited to review bc I wanted to make sure my results were stable. I will update if anything changes, but so far, very good. On seeing haloes - for me specifically, I have truly a lot less of this effect than I anticipated; it really depends on the angle and is pretty negligible for me and my lifestyle needs. Most of the time, I don't have any ! (Maybe it could vary depending on different eyes, though - don't know.) Before, I was overall very cautious about whether ICLs were a good/worthwhile thing to do, but now being on the other side, I'm converted ! I think it has advanced enough to where a good surgeon (IQ has more than one on staff, btw - I had Dr. Patrick) and clinic can do a great job, because that's what I received ! On top of that, I love the San Marino location - so close by. This review is 100% not sponsored, and they did not ask me to do this, I'm doing it on my own! I really dislike it when clinics these days ask their patients to give high reviews if it doesn't accurately represent the place. To the team at IQ: please keep up the great work and keep what's great about your practice. I feel like it can be sometimes a rare find to find medical teams, especially with more optional services like these, who really are conscientious and trustworthy. Thank you again! read more

Honestly, I have no words to describe how easy it was to book my consultation, get quoted and get the surgery all done in under a month! Currently 2 weeks post lasik and my vision is SO MUCH BETTER. I had Danielle as my lasik rep and she made everything understandable and answered our questions w/great explanations. Theres even options to pay via payment plans if you're worried about the cost. Originally I wanted to come in for my consult due to my farsightedness and high astigmatism but my dad also ended up joining me last minute LOL and the team at SM location tried their best to accommodate him despite their busy schedule - MEGA THANKS! With some back and forth testing to see whether we qualified for the procedure, we did have to visit the City of Industry location a couple of times since they had a specific machine for dilation that the SM location did not have. In the end I ended up having my surgery there and it was a breeze! I also saw both Dr. Grace and Dr. Nguyen as my optometrists - both amazing and honest drs. Literally told me as it is, and reassured me that post surgery, it would take awhile for me to readjust due to my past prescription. SURGERY DAY; went in, got retested to be sure, got to meet my surgeon & the assistants- Dr. Lin- super nice man), just a bit of loud machinery noise and burning smell but both eyes were zapped and done within 20 minutes. I was able to literally open my eyes post procedure, although blurry, but with no issues. Got my handy clear eye covers and had my eyes closed for the rest of day. You WILL have a high sensitivity to light so make sure you have your sunglasses to wear and eye drops! Thank you to the amazing team at IQ! I can't wait to see a clearer world w/ my new *almost* 20/20 vision! read more

Poor customer service. Scheduled a virtual consultation with a set date and time. At the appointed time, I did not receive any call from the business. I eventually decided to call them, but no one ever picked up. Sent an email asking if I should be expecting a call or if I should be calling in, but did not recieve a response. Sent a follow up email stating I was ignored and asked if they just didn't want to do business with me, and that email was ignored too. Don't schedule consultations if you're not going to follow up with scheduled consultations and are just going to ignore your potential customer after missing the appointment. read more

The San Marino location of IQ laser center is only for the consultations and post op exams. The Rowland heights location is where the procedure is done and along with the consultation & post op exams. I was able to schedule my post op exam at this location which was closer to my work. I have done my SMILE procedure two days ago and went to my post op exam the next day. My eyes were a little sensitive to the light but I did not developed any glares or halos. I was able to drive to work the next day. But, at night my eyes are a bit hazy to the lights. On the day of my post op, Dr. Robert Lin was my doctor, he was really friendly and thoroughly check my eyes to see how they were recovering. The staff and doctors at IQ lacked center were all professional and nice. The only regret I have is not getting it done sooner. read more

It has been over a year since I got ICL here from IQ Laser Vision. I am very satisfied about the results. A year ago prior to the time I got the surgery, the doctors did very through tests on my visions and made sure that the lens they selected were the ones that fit the best for me. The surgery was quickly done and the recovery was not hard at all. I felt being cared for very much by the whole team and I really like IQ Laser Vision. After the surgery, I got eye exams once a while from IQ Laser Vision too. I am very happy about the me right now without glasses. I will definitely recommend IQ Laser Vision to others: https://iqlaservision.org/homepage If over 50 years old and want to get rid of reading glasses: https://iqlaservision.org/reading-problems-4355-2328 read more

I've been wearing glasses since I was a kid and I have gotten used to it. I never thought about getting Lasik until I had kids of my own. At this point glasses became an obstacle when it comes to playing or trying to make milk blind during the middle of the night. My friends referred me here because they both had good experiences so I thought why not. I spoke to Christine during my consultation and she was very very thorough when it comes to the different products and services that they offered. I wanted , and actually gotten since I'm writing this after my procedure, to do the SMILE procedure because it was the least invasive and I couldn't take time away from work. I had my pre-op exam done in San Marino to see if my eyes qualify for SMILE. The staff there were really patient and helpful and the doctor took his time explaining my eye health and also answering the questions that I had. The procedure was done several days after this appointment and for me it took about a day of rest after the procedure where now I can comfortably say that I can see better than without my glasses. I wished I would've done this sooner. read more

I was referred to IQ Laser by my friends, and at first, I had a hard time deciding which doctor to go with--since my friends all saw Dr. Lin. But after learning more, I chose Dr. Pham for my SMILE eye surgery because of budget concern and couldn't be happier with the decision! The recovery was super fast--just one day to rest, and by the third day, I was already out driving and meeting friends. Highly recommend! Hope my experience helps you. read more

I had my SMILE surgery at IQ on Friday. Everyone in the office in both San Marino (where I had my initial consultation and post-surgery follow-up) and Rowland Heights (where I had my surgery) is so warm, welcoming, and patient with questions. The nurses, doctors, and receptionists all played a part in helping me make this big decision and putting me at ease throughout the process. Dr. Erica Liu was so kind and helpful in getting me to relax before and during the surgery. She is phenomenal at her job and the surgery only took about 10-15 minutes. Though things are still a bit hazy a few days later, I am so excited to reach 20/20 vision in a few weeks. Thanks, IQ! Would highly recommend this team to anyone considering laser eye surgery. read more

Hi ,I did my lasik surgery last week,I did the best one called Smile,now I really enjoy my life,because I improved my vision,I am more confident than before and feel people more close to me .I give 10/10 ,its totally worth it! read more

As someone with very sensitive, dry eyes and anxiety regarding the procedure, I had a very quick, painless, and satisfying experience. I had my smile surgery a week ago. The package comes with pre-op check up, artificial tears and antibiotic drops, the procedure itself, and multiple post-ops. The staff are all very helpful, and they get you in and out very fast. The surgeon himself was very informative and helped me stay calm during the surgery. There was no pain at all and the procedure was done in just 15 minutes. Currently, my vision is at 20/20, my eyes are not as sensitive as they used to be, and most post surgery side effects have subsided where I don't notice them. Very happy I finally went through with it! read more

I had my ICL surgery done last week and could not be happier! My prescription was slightly above -12 and I maxed out in the prescription for daily soft lenses. I did my first consult over four years ago but between two pregnancies, nursing, and a pandemic, I never got a chance to move forward until now. The procedure itself is relatively painless. The second eye stung a bit when they put in the drops but that was the extent of "pain" you experience. Nothing a long term contact user can't handle. After the procedure your eyes just feel tired. I took several naps before knocking out for the night. Almost immediately after surgery, I could see better than I could with my contacts. They put shells over your eyes for the first 24 hours but I had my eye pressure checked around 3 hours post surgery and I got a glimpse of 20/20 life! The most challenging things about the process have been unrelated to the surgery itself. You have to stay off your contacts for 3 days before the pre-op appointment and again before the surgery. After the surgery, no bending/lifting above 15lbs for two weeks (challenging with two young kids so make sure you have a support system set up). I had some hesitation about the procedure because I was told by another well known surgeon that I was not a good candidate. Danielle scheduled two zoom calls for me with Dr. Lin and he assured me that I was a perfect candidate! I'm so glad I listened! read more

Look no further than IQ Laser! I had a fantastic experience and now have 20/20 vision. My only regret is not having the Smile procedure done sooner! I'll be recommending them to everyone. read more

I want to say the SMILE procedure has been life changing! I have been using eye contacts and glasses for well over 10 years. I relied on them every single day. Not being able to see is a huge problem. Everywhere I went I had to make sure I carried my eye contacts and an extra pair of glasses in case something happened to either of them. I came across IQLaserVision on Instagram. We first set a virtual appointment with Veronica Covarrubias who explained what the procedure will look like and why I wanted LASIK. But then I learned there is a procedure called SMILE. Essentially, this is when the surgeon uses a laser light to cut a tiny incision in the cornea and removes a piece of tissue. Reshaping the cornea to correct your vision. (This is the best I can explain). They work out a plan for you. You can make monthly payments or pay all in full. First step is leaving a $100 deposit. At the time of your first visit they will run a few tests of your eyes. Which will determine if you qualify for LASIK, SMILE or both. I went with SMILE because it's a small procedure and the recovery process is basically the next day! On the day of the procedure- I was nervous but also excited. Soon after my procedure, after leaving the surgeon's room (Dr. Erica Liu-made me feel so comfortable during the procedure- she talked me through everything to the 'T') I don't think I could have done it without her guidance oh and the numbing drops!. I was able to see more than I had been able to in years. Soon after getting home I had to take a sleeping pill which I didn't want to take because I was excited that I could see. But I had to take the sleeping pill because I didn't want to feel any weird sensations or pains after the numbness went away. There will be some dryness in the eyes for a few months but during that time I need to be using Artificial Tears and just for a week after the procedure I used drops that are antibiotic eye drops. Fast forward to today...I am so happy. Well worth the procedure. I highly recommend IQLaserVision. The staff is so friendly and Dr. Erica T. Liu did a beautiful job. Oh and I now have 20/15 vision!!! Everyday, I am so grateful and it is still so unreal. Thank you IQLaserVision! read more

I never knew the process was so easy and quick! I ended up doing the SMILE procedure about 3 weeks back, and so far so good. No issues, not much dry eye either. Was still a bit blurry the next day but vision came back almost fully by day 3-4 for me. On another note, everyone there is very professional and kind! read more

My 1 star review goes to their counselor Christine. She talks too much and brags like if they are the only clinic in LA by doing false promises. She is not a genuin person, don't let her to fool you. read more

Glowing review from me. Success of a practice (from a patient's point of view) depends on every single person they meet along the way. So, thank you team. Even though, IQ laser has no problems getting patients, I am mainly wanting to thank the people I have met along the way. San Marino staff - you guys are so professional and efficient. I can just sit there in the waiting room and be comfortable the whole day. Consultant - Victoria is awesome. She went through the logistics and financials with me. Patiently answered all the questions. Great follow up. Optometrists- Dr Chang (i swear she told me something different, but the staff said thats who I saw). One of the most competent and professional optometrist. Went through all the exams with grace and ease. City of industry staff - (this is where the equipment is). Again, more smiling and happy staff. Very helpful and professional. Surgeon - Dr Barrion!!! What is not to like about him. He was down-2-earth, professional, caring. He took his time going through the procedures and checked if I had any more questions. This is where I differ from most of my family - I don't need alot of hand-holding and time-spent. I know he is competent. He went through what I would expect/hear/feel/see, cracked a few jokes to try to relax me, AND he operated with good music on. I tell people that you want ur surgeon relaxed and happy. I know its trouble when the surgeon stops chatting/putting on the intense face/snapping at his staff. I am still healing from my LASIK. But I am confident that whatever the outcome is, I am appreciative of the work/effort of my LASIK team. read more

For my birthday, I gifted myself Lasik. It's been about 6 weeks now, so I feel a bit more comfortable sharing my thoughts. The free consultation took about 2 hours to complete. I didn't need to bring in any of my history because they did a complete workup. They even noticed that I had a mild lazy eye, even though I forgot to mention it and it's so mild that my usual optometrists tend to disregard it. Side note for those who are nervous: there's absolutely no pressure to follow through after the free consultation. Truth be told, I actually contacted them two YEARS ago, left my info, and chickened out. It was only last month that I took the initiative again to set up a consultation. They offer 3 different procedures based on what best fits you. Because of my unique situation, I could only go with the ALL- laser, and even then, they made sure I understood that one of my eyes would never, ever reach 20/20. It was brought up in every meeting (face to face and over the phone), and I had to sign a waiver right before the actual procedure. I appreciate that they never gave me false promises. Your total cost includes your pre/post op care package, the procedure, 1 year's worth of checkups, and a lifetime guarantee (fine print included, of course). As for the operation day itself, everything went fairly smoothly. The time spent with the actual laser is very brief. The laser auto tracks your eye so you can look around without fear (even though you should definitely keep as still as possible). There was no pain. I repeat, no pain. There was mild discomfort, and I did struggle a little though. Dr Liu was comforting and paused the procedure to let me regain my composure. For those who I just scared: I was never in danger or pain; I just really wanted to blink. I went home, popped a sleeping pill, and woke up the next day able to see. The checkup revealed that I am officially 20/20 with both eyes open. I am not 20/20 when tested individually, but like I said, they warned me continuously beforehand. In the weeks and checkups since, they say my vision is still stabilizing, but I'm doing fine. They only 'negative' side effect so far is that I'm really sensitive to light now. It's hard for me to go out without sunglasses during the day. They tell me that should slowly get better over time though. As for the little things I usually throw into my reviews: parking is a breeze, and staff is defintely welcoming. The lobby offers a few complimentary indulgences, but each location offers different things. The City of Industry office, for example, offers a massage chair. The City of Industry office is the one that actually hosts operations, so you'll have a chance to stop by and try it. read more

It kind of frustrates me, giving a completely 5 star business another 5 stars. Maybe because it's like mine doesn't make a difference. BUT it's what they deserve and what they've earned. They were really respectful and chatted with me as if we were friends. And I'm still trying to figure out if I shed real or artificial tears when the doctor asked me where I used to live, prompting me to think of my dear friend Hansen. Man do I miss Hansen. I used to live with Hansen and I came to love his long wrists and the way his hair grew after he cut it. He would cut his hair in a way that still allowed it to grow back and it was beautiful to watch his head hide itself again and again underneath his dark, dark hair. Hansen would cook ramen noodles for himself and always leave the remaining soup for me to drink on a cold night. Of course none of this is true except for the fact that this business deserves 5 stars. read more

一直想做近视手术摆脱眼镜，了解了几个医院最后是朋友推荐IQ Laser，他是15年做的，这几年好像没有出过事故很安全。 时间很好约，几乎打电话第二天就可以约到了，不过我本来是想离的近一点在洛杉矶附近做，不过说好像是只能是在总院。 周六下午去的，整体接待、检查都很及时，几乎也没有等，接待人员和医生都会给您很亲切的解释具体手术流程和注意事项，一般都有中文翻译。 手术很快，来回不到10分钟，从到医院到等待和全程结束，全部加起来好像也不到1个小时。 当天做完没什么感觉，就是过了40-50分钟，麻醉好像过了之后有点酸，睁不开眼睛。 吃了医院给的安眠药睡觉起来几乎就没有什么问题了。 现在视力都正常可以看到啦，总之很棒！要做近视手术的伙伴，可以考虑哦！ read more

Just had my SMILE procedure done and it's a whole new world baby! I've had a high prescription of -7 and basically terrible site for the last 19yrs, my life always evolved around contacts/glasses. And I finally decided to do something about iSeriously these guys took care of me from start to finish (literally this took less then a few weeks from our first consultation) incredible team. Everyone is so nice and caring and answered all my questions and addressed all my concerns (I'm from the generation of Final Destination iykyk ) I can't believe I didn't do this sooner but also sooo happy to have gone with the team at IQ Laser. I could basically see later that night after my procedure, next day was about 80% vision and by 3rd was basically in high 90's! Have zero regrets and so thankful for this new gift of sight!!!

IQ Laser Vision - Bye bye glasses - Laser Eye Surgery/Lasik Near Me - San Marino, California

I just got my micro-smile surgery done yesterday by Dr, Lin and i can already see 80%. I just wanted to say thank you to Danielle, Frances, Dr. Lin, and the entire staff at IQ laser vision. Dr. Lin was very detailed in explaining what will happen during the surgery and made sure to help keep me calm while he was operating. From the beginning to end everyone was very helpful in explaining each type of procedure and the pros/cons of each. I did many tests to ensure all the numbers were correct and Dr. Lin himself reviewed everything to make sure it went smoothly. I highly recommend iq laser vision to all my friends and family. I have lived with glasses and contact lenses my entire life. I don't even remember a single day of waking up without having to grab my glasses. My rx was also -9.0 (-9.5 on the day of operation) so you can imagine it is like night and day. I feel as if i have a new life now with a fresh pair of eyes! 5 stars and two thumbs up! read more

No Pain, Everything to Gain The team at IQ Laser Vision really took good care of me and I had a great overall experience. I came in expecting to see Dr. Robert Lin, but he rarely does procedures himself these days and I didn't see him at all. Dr. Erica Liu did my procedure and she is by far the BEST at what she does. Pre-OP: Melissa at the San Marino office was really helpful in explaining the different types of procedures without any pressure to choose. I ultimately chose to do the SMILE because of the minimal recovery time. Day of Op: From the moment you step into the practice you can feel the professionalism and care they take with their patients. Dr. Erica Liu and staff were amazing. She walked me through every single step of the process and I felt comfortable the whole time. The entire procedure took less than 10 mins and I walked out with sunglasses on. Fun Fact: outside of one other Dr. in NY, Dr. Erica Liu has done the MOST in the US. Post Op: The staff at the San Marino office was extremely on point, and I didn't have to wait long to be seen. Dr. Richard Lin was very patient in answering my questions and they were all very accommodating. I'm so glad I chose to do my SMILE procedure with IQ Laser Vision. Thanks! read more

Just had my SMILE LASIK with Dr. Lin. Was referred to him by my family members, friends, and colleagues but had another consultation with another famous facility closer to me. After weighing pros and cons of each facility, decided to go ahead with Dr. Lin because of: 1) the manager at this particular location, Victoria, who was very helpful and responsive to questions/concerns, 2) Dr. Lin's experience with SMILE LASIK (has done the most number of cases in Southern California), and 3) good feedbacks from my family and friends. Today is my post op day 2. I already see well, which I hear is 80% of my final vision. No significant dryness or halos so far. Highly recommend Dr. Lin to anyone who's considering SMILE. :) read more

I've been wanting to get LASIK for about 3 years now and was hesitant due to the surgery itself as well as the cost. After losing my hard lenses twice and facing difficulties with not seeing 24/7 without contacts or glasses to care for my special-needs daughter, I started to seriously look into LASIK. It felt overwhelming with all the different offices that perform LASIK but I saw the reviews for IQ Laser Vision and they really stood out to me. I went in for a consult and was comforted but how kind, knowledgeable, and patient everyone was. Suki calls me by name every time she sees me, Dr. Richard patiently answered the 13 questions I had written on a piece of paper and Melissa thoroughly explained things about the procedure, whether I wanted mono-vision or not as well as costs and payment plans. I appreciated that no one tried to push me and they even suggested that I wait to see if my vision would yet again change since I had only taken my hard lenses out for 3.5 weeks. You can tell that they want to do a good job and do things the right way. I chose to get the SMILE procedure (a smaller incision than traditional LASIK) on March 29, 2019 and got it done by Dr. Liu. She is both professional, kind and calming and did a great job. After the procedure, I had lot of tearing, light sensitivity and tingling (in my left eye more than my right). The tingling went away in about 2 hours. I went home and kept my eyes closed for the remainder of the day. Lo and behold, I woke up the next morning and could see everything clearly. Aside from some dryness, I am still in awe of the glasses and contacts-free life I am living and the ability to see 20/20 all the time. One more thing: I declined a receipt the day of my procedure but changed my mind a few days later. I dreaded having to ask for one and thought it might take forever but when I asked Victoria, she responded immediately and emailed me the receipt by the next day. Everyone at this office is great! read more

I went to the San Marino office last weekend for a consultation. The office was very clean and staff & doctor were welcoming, thorough, answered all my questions and were all smiles! After doing multiple eye exams/tests it was determined I was a candidate for Lasik which I was happy to hear. After the consultation, they explained because of my vision, in order to make my far sided better that my near sided would be slightly compromised. They advised I try temporary contacts for a couple of days so I could see how the lasik would look through my own eyes. I took their advice. I realized with the contacts it was harder for me to read and look at my computer at work. Before the appointment I was all ready to get lasik but after the explanations and trying the contacts, I realized it wasn't worth it for me personally. When I let them know, they were so nice and didn't try an push any sale. They said I needed to do what I felt comfortable with and were still all smiles. I love that they were honest, upfront and I always felt like they had my best interest in mind. If my sight gets worse in the future, I would 100% go back to them. They are wonderful to work with! Last, to the woman who put the contacts in my eyes - she had the patients of a saint!!! I had never worn contacts before so I closed each eye at least 20 times before we got them in. She was nothing but sweet and took all the time we needed to get them in. read more

I currently work here. And I had Smile procedure done 1 week ago. Everything is way soooo good, Sharp vision and I don't experience much glares or halos. But there's only one disadvantage: why have I waited for so many years to make up my mind!!! My eyes are sensitive and susceptible to seasonal change and dry weather. Wearing contacts always makes my eyes super dry. I also suffered from surface defect, which might lead to severe problems if not treated timely, due to contact use. I was hesitant to have the surgery because I was afraid that the surgery would escalate my dry eye condition. However, without wearing contacts or even glasses, the symptoms actually improve. Now I can see 20/15 (which is better than 20/20). If there's an earthquake hitting at night, I don't have to look for my glasses before running. Lol Thank you everybody! Thank this company for giving me a better than 20/20 vision in 2020! read more

I had the smile eye surgery last week in this office. The procedure is fast and safe. The surgeon would explain the details starting the procedure. Everything went well.

I definitely recommend any of my friend to go there if they want to have the smile surgery done. read more

Back when I was in college, I'd pretty much decided I was never going to get this surgery. I accepted that I'll just wear glasses for the rest of my life. However, my wife kind of pressured me into getting an evaluation to see if I was eligible. I was eligible so I decided to go ahead and get the SMILE procedure. I was super skeptical and very VERY anxious about getting the procedure done. But honestly, all of the doctors there were super nice and made the whole process as comfortable as possible. Every day my vision seems to be improving. I almost want to cry because of how good my vision is, but I'm nervous to cry because I don't want to strain my eyes haha Follow up service has also been superb. Even after you give them your money, they will still treat you like family. I respect that a lot. Anyways, I recommend people get the SMILE procedure if possible. It's a bit more expensive, but the recovery is fast and the procedure is painless. Very much worth the extra money. I hope these guys are able to stay in business because they treat people right and that's hard to find these days. One last thing. I read another review saying how the doctors wouldn't get back to them in the same day after the surgery. This ALMOST happened to me, but the doctor finally called me back 2 minutes before closing haha. They could be a bit better at responding to calls (because, i mean, this is a very scary procedure an during recovery patients are obviously very anxious), but other than that they treated me like a king! Despite the call back issue I still recommend this place over others! Go here! Also my vision is perfect now!!!!!! read more

Honestly the best decision I could've made. The staff was amazing to work and made the decision easy to go through with. Jacinta was the rep I spoke with mostly and she was so sweet and patient with me. She had my questions answered and I felt knowledgeable about my options. I decided to go through with the Smile procedure as it had a faster recovery time than lasik and that was super important to me with my kids. The day of my procedure I met my actual surgeon, Dr. Patrick Pham and he was amazing. He walked me through all the steps, before and reminded me during surgery, so I was comfortable and knew what to expect. The procedure was about 10 minutes and I was up and ready to walk out but the laser was in my eye about 20 seconds. The next day I woke up and was 90% better and by 24 hours i was at 100%, still some fog but that all went away by day 2. Overall I'm so happy I went with them. I no longer have to rely on contacts or glasses and wake up perfect able to see. Thank you everyone at IQ laser! read more

Writing this review day after my micro-LASIK surgery. Actual procedure was at the Rowland Heights location. Props to ALL of the staff. Everyone is very nice and attentive. Top notch service. Expect a lot of testing to make sure you're a good candidate. As for the actual procedure, no pain at all, but quite a bit of pressure. And yes, there's like 5 seconds of darkness in each eye during the surgery, but other than that, all you have to do is focus on the red light. And maybe enjoy the slow Chinese music in the background. Dr. Lin and the tech will assure you and walk you through the whole surgery process, so nothing to worry about. You'll be in really good hands. Excited to say I have 20/20 a day after my procedure! Still a bit blurry and I'm seeing some halos from lights in the dark, but all normal and should go away as I recover. I'm really happy with the whole experience and would recommend this place to anyone. read more
