    Lasik +
    Elicia D.

    I waited to review until I was atleast 2 months post op to give a true an honest perspective. I scheduled an initial appointment in September and signed up for Lasik the following Friday. During the initial appointment a series of test are done on the eyes, slightly more comprehensive than your annual eye exam for contacts /glasses. Unfortunately, due to a number of factors a doctor called me a couple days prior to surgery and let me know that the Surgeon wanted to do PRK instead of Lasik as that was the safest option for my unique circumstances and the thinness of my corneas. I researched PRK up until a couple hours prior to the surgery and I was extremely nervous. The day of surgery I arrived and was shown back to a waiting area where they performed routine test, wrapped my hair, and prepped me for the operation. The operation itself is very hard to describe you have something holding your eyes open, numbing drops to ease irritation and you are looking as still as possible into a Lazer beam and you hear the nurse spitting out numbers, and the doctor is saying stay still over and over. It's all quite nerve wrecking because your eyes naturally would like to blink. The surgery took about 20 minutes. Immediately after you are given sun glasses, your prescriptions and a bag. The pain does not begin initially but with prk it soon comes shortly after returning home where you instructed to take the sleeping pills, and goggles and sleep. After waking my eyes were in terrible pain. Days 2-4 were the absolute worst pain. I had an extreme sensativity to light that was so bad I couldn't even be in my home with no lights on without dark sun glasses. I called immediately for a follow up appointment because the pain became unbearable. I was scheduled the next morning and Dr grand wrote me a prescription. Healing after the prescription went a lot smoother. 2 months post op I can see better than I can ever remember! It was worth all of the pain and I highly recommend lasik +. My surgery cost $4900 but it will vary from customer to customer and they run regular promotions. I would absolutely do it again and I'm so happy to be relieved of glasses and contacts. Thank you to the surgeon Dr McCurry, Dr grand and the entire staff which has been nothing short of amazing!

    I feel amazing.. don't know why I waited 30 + years to do this. I feel and see great!! Staff were amazing.. I went to check if I was eligible and I was.. did the surgery same day!! 3 hours in and out!! My husband on line to get it done next!

    Prepped and ready to go!

    First, it's been a week and 2 days since my surgery and I am happy to report that I can see without glass/contacts and according to the Dr. my eyesight is 20/15! The only problem that I noticed is that I'm having a hard time seeing my armpits (to shave) and sometimes it's difficult to focus on things close up when I'm in low light. However, they say our eyes heal independently from one another and that it could take up to 3 months to fully heal. So, with that in mind, I'm hoping those little bumps in the road smooth out. Even if they don't, I am definitely happy with my results! Now that my update is out of the way, I'll tell you about my visit. The consultation was on a Thursday and lasted about an hour and a half. I got there early, so there was some waiting but I still got in by my appointment time. I was brought to a room where a technician dilated my eyes and ran some tests. Then, they brought me to another room where I saw one of the Dr's, and he performed more testing. Everyone at this point was extremely helpful, patient with me and answered all of my questions, no matter how ridiculous they were. After being told I would be a great candidate, I was moved to another room to talk finances. I chose to pay for the treatment outright with the money I'd been saving. Everyone's cost is going to be a little bit different because of various discounts, insurances, etc. For me, I paid $3530 total (due on procedure day if paying outright). For anyone else interested, they offer a variety of finance options and can guarantee in-house financing, too. I scheduled the procedure for the following Saturday (2 days after the consult). On the day of the surgery, I met the surgeon, Dr. Alban, and she made me feel super comfortable and confident. I was a nervous wreck but she was very reassuring. It also helps that her credentials are amazing. The first laser makes the cut and honestly this was the absolute worst part in my opinion. Not the cutting, but the part where they put eyelid holders in your eye and a ring that holds your eye in place. It didn't hurt but it felt like someone was pulling my eyes out of my head. There was SO MUCH pressure! But the Dr. has you focus on your breathing, talks to you the whole time, and within seconds it is over. The second laser was a piece of cake. All you did was stare at a green light for a minute or so and it was done! The reason I'm stealing a star from this otherwise 5 star experience, is because of my after-care. Immediately, I was put into a recovery room where I told my sister that I felt like there was an eyelash stuck in my eye. I asked her to grab the nurse because the numbing drops were wearing off and the eyelash was getting painful. The nurse came in and instead of looking in my eye, she just told me the feeling was normal. Even after I stated that my other eye didn't feel that way. She ushered us out the door and told me to go straight to sleep and I'll feel better later. When I got home, I pulled my eyelid open and found several eyelashes stuck in my eye, folded inward from the eyelid holder. As if that wasn't enough, the 2 Tylenol PMs they gave me to sleep wouldn't work for me. My eyes felt like they were on fire and there was no way I could get myself to pass out. After about 3 hours of laying in bed in pain, I had my sister call the Dr to see if I could take something stronger to go to sleep like a couple of benedryls. Of course, my sister called every phone number she could find, even the after-hours emergency number and no one answered. If you've ever gotten soap in your eye and your body doesn't let you open your eyelids and it burns, that's what this was like. I just had to lay there and wait for the pain to subside, about 8 hours later. Side note: I have a low tolerance for pain. About 11pm that night (surgery was at 3pm), I was able to hold my eyes open long enough to grab something to eat. This was when I noticed that I could see long-distance. They give you sunglasses to wear for 24 hours inside and outside. I was so thankful for those! Lights had glare but I could see-and that made the entire experience worth it.

We were referred to this office by our pediatrician, and I'll admit I was a little nervous since I didn't know what to expect. I wasn't sure how they conducted eye exams on kids under two, and I wasn't sure how my son would react. All the staff members we encountered were kind and clearly communicated the process & next steps. My son has a minor astigmatism in both eyes, so they ended up needing to dilate them first. You can tell their team is well versed in working with children and they had a friendly, calming presence. My son actually did so well and was relaxed the entire time. Didn't even shed a tear. He received the eyedrops with ease and then we had to wait about 20 minutes for his eyes to dilate before seeing the doctor. The test consists of a series of lights and he was actually pretty mesmerized. Ultimately, we left with good news that he won't be needing glasses right away, and we'll come back again in 6 months to see if there's been any improvement. The cost (even with insurance) was the major bummer. They can't tell you how much it's going to be upfront because it depends on what tests they end up needing to do. So $300 later, this was an expensive preventative measure.

Cliff told me that the original driver - not Uber - sent to pick him up never showed. Then an Uber driver showed up but drove off. I was the third driver. All were arranged by his insurance carrier Wellcare. When I took him to the eye Institute, he was very concerned that he needed someone to stay with him. I agreed to do so even though I am an Uber driver. I assumed that once he was checked in, I would be finished. We waited between 30 and 45 minutes to be called to be checked in. It took so long that after 15 or 20 minutes I left re-park my car in an actual parking place. Because I was convinced they did not really need me to stay I started to leave but Clifton became upset; pulled out a lot of bills and offered to pay me to stay with him. I told him to put the money away and that I would stay as long as I was required. I again assumed that once he was finally checked in my duties would be over. When we were finally checked in the lady made clear that he would not be operated on unless I stayed with him during the surgery and indeed required me to sign a document agreeing to do so. Despite being a retired attorney, I knew how upset Clifton would be if the surgery did not go forward. He was a nervous wreck during the entire car ride, although he was trying to be friendly, polite, and talkative. My question is: how did the McGruder eye Institute and or his insurance carrier - Wellcare - allow a situation to develop where he was scheduled for and went to surgery without a person to sit with him and drive him back home after the surgery? I was so amazed about this situation that I briefly texted my three daughters to tell them about it. I expected my lawyer daughter to be upset with me for signing something agreeing to be this Uber passengers caretaker, and get him home safely. I am sitting in the waiting room as I dictate this waiting for Clifton to come out of surgery so that I can drive him home. Whether I will even do that as an Uber driver, or simply as his friend and signed caretaker, remains to be seen. When I left to go to the waiting room, he was third in line for surgery so that I'm expected to be here for another hour and a half minimum and then need to drive him home. Doing this required me to cancel a reservation with an Uber passenger I had for 3:15 PM. I have no idea whether I'll be available at 3:15 PM. I am happy to assist Clifton. I am outraged at the situation He and I were placed in by the McGruder eye Institute, Dr. Beneke, and Wellcare. Something needs to be done about this. This is unacceptable; ridiculous; outrageous; and every other negative word you can use to describe it. This cannot be a unique situation. Hopefully someone will bring a class action so that patients (and Uber/Lyft drivers) are not placed in this position again.
