I would recommend Dr. Carter for any eye care that you may need.

Do yourself a favor and stay away from this office. There are other eye doctors who are much better with kids and charge far less! We had seen Dr Yin there previously and she was amazing.

Don't make my mistake and come here for LASIK. I was extremely overcorrected, had severe pain,…read morecouldn't see well enough to drive at night, and my quality of life was a mess for 8 months and I'm still dealing with the repercussions a year later. I did months of follow ups, where Dr. Katsef kept saying, "I have no idea why this happened." and "Wow, you're taking this really well." My vision finally settled around 8 months later, at a more 'normal' but still high overcorrection, where Dr Katsef requested doing a second surgery under the same conditions, without understanding what went wrong the first time. I went to other LASIK Drs to consult on my situation, and learned that this isn't uncommon for his office and his equipment. Now, instead of taking his offer of a corrective surgery I am going elsewhere with better technology to avoid risking another 6 months of pain and bad vision. Don't get me wrong, touch-ups after LASIK aren't uncommon, but this was something much worse to the point where I would rather pay someone else for a second surgery, which is not cheap, then come back here for free. Katsef's office initially approved and then denied my request for a refund, pivoting to now tell me that my experience was actually within the expected outcomes of his surgery.

He performed laser surgery to correct an astigmatism in the same eye and at the same time as the cataract surgery. The surgery was quick, highly successful and I experienced almost no pain in in surgery or during the following week after surgery. The morning after surgery I was seeing very clearly out of my right eye. I'm returning for laser / cataract surgery on my left eye, with the confidence of knowing I can trust Dr Fante and can expect wonderful results. I first saw Dr Fante several years ago for a condition that was extremely rare and hard to diagnose. Dr Fante was extremely helpful in the process of diagnosing the cause of the eye symptoms, which included temporary blindness in one eye over the course of several months. Dr Fante followed my case through by referring me to other doctors who helped determine the exact cause of my problem. The final result was 100% restoration of my 20/20 vision. The office staff and medical technicians are all very professional and friendly at Sansum Clinic (now Sutter Health).

I have had no trouble with either her staff or with scheduling. Also, some complaints are very outdated (over 6-7 years ago). For instance, I've been her patient for a few years and never had to come to any downtown office. She appears to be working more fully at the Sansum Foothills location near Hwy 154. She is competent, professional, and is giving me very good care. (I have narrow-angles, am a "glaucoma suspect", and she gave me an iridotomy in each eye, a quick and painless procedure, to help with drainage). Santa Barbara is fortunate to have a doctor with her level of expertise to help those of us in the community who need such eye care.
