Dr. Bansal and his team are truly phenomenal!…read more I've been wearing glasses and contacts for over 20 years and decided I finally wanted to pursue vision correction surgery. I came in for a consultation and after a thorough eye examination, I was notified that due to my high prescription and thin corneas, I was not eligible for Lasik, SMILE or PRK but was eligible for ICL (Implantable Collamer Lenses). I had not previously heard of ICL so the optometrist explained to me that it is a newer (at least in the U.S.) procedure during which micro incisions are made on the eyes and permanent lenses are inserted. The cost is significantly more than the other types of procedures ($11,800) but I was able to pay for half and then finance the other half through CareCredit. I was able to schedule my procedure for the following month after my initial consultation. Dr. Bansal was very transparent during my pre-op appointment and notified me that due to my high prescription and a genetic deformity in my right eye, I would not be able to get to 20/20 vision but would get close. The procedure itself was a breeze and completely painless. I was given Ativan and numbing eye drops. The longest part was waiting for my eyes to completely dilate in the surgery waiting room. I actually fell asleep in there until I was woken up and notified that it was surgery time. The procedure took less than 3 minutes per eye - it was extremely quick! I did not feel any pain, but did feel a little bit of pressure. The most uncomfortable part was having to stare up at an extremely bright light while Dr. Bansal performed the surgery. As soon as it was over and I was wheeled into the recovery room, my vision was already clear! My contact lens prescription was -9.00 in my left eye and -7.00 in my right, so the fact that I could already see pretty clearly right after surgery was incredible. Recovery has been easy. I did experience some blurriness/cloudiness and fluctuations in my vision for the first couple of days, but my vision gradually became more clear. At my one-week post-op exam, my vision was 20/25 in my left eye and 20/30 in my right which is better than what I thought would be possible. I now wake up in the morning and can immediately see and it feels like a miracle. It's now been two weeks since my procedure and I feel comfortable driving. I am absolutely thrilled by my corrected vision and am very pleased with the results! If you're on the fence about getting vision correction surgery, get it done at LaserVue! The team here is amazing and made me feel very comfortable about the entire thing!

Dr. Bansal performed advanced laser cataract surgery for me on both eyes with a multifocal lense…read more I'm now able to see clearly at both mid and far distances, including night time vision, and can see vivid colors that have escaped me for more than 10 years. Not only did Dr. Bansal answer all of my questions, but every single person on his team was attentive and provided great care. Dr. Bansal is on the forefront of laser eye procedures and I wouldn't hesitate to use him for such an important procedure. If you need a place to stay overnight, there is a nice, inexpensive retro motel nearby called the Astro hotel with good restaurants (Spinster Sisters and Bagel Noshery) close by. Enjoy your cataracation!

I had astigmatism and far sightedness. Dr. Bansal solved both for me 15 years ago and I'm still going strong. I'll likely need something done again in the future and will go see Dr. Bansal again. Why would anyone NOT invest in their eyes - or risk it with anyone other than the best!?!? UPDATE: I've had two friends also use Dr. Bansal with similar stellar results. He has also turned away friends that didn't need surgery (very professional).

For someone who has had glasses all their life, and contacts the last 13 years- I wish I did it sooner. The recovery was so quick- already today I am seeing everything and resting as instructed. All the staff at Laservue Eye Center are friendly, welcoming and the best staff I have met hope during all my visits. Thank you LaserVue and Dr Bansal for my 20/20 vision!

Dr. Boghossian is an excellent doctor. He guides you through the entire process and answers any…read morequestion you may have, leaving no room for doubt on your journey for perfect vision (and you WILL have perfect vision if you go with him). His vast knowledge of his field of ophthalmology is impressive, but also reassuring to know that the man who will operate on your eyes is the finest in his field. But above all of his technical skills, expertise, and knowledge, the reason why I personally like Dr. Boghossian is his very humble, kind manner. You are talking about a man who is the cutting edge of his field, yet he is very respectful, relaxed, and genuinely friendly. He cares about you, the patient. He does not see you as another number on a spreadsheet for a quota. You can tell, by interacting with him, he is passionate about helping people with the most important thing in their lives: their ability to clearly see the world around them. He is making the world a better place by making peoples lives better. He has made MY life far, far better. Any fear you may have about laser eye surgery is eliminated by Dr. Boghossian's deft skill and calm, reassuring demeanor. The process is not at all painful, and the results are well worth it. I only had to travel from Walnut Creek to Danville to be Dr. Boghossian's patient. But if the circumstances were different, I would travel from New York to Danville if I had to. That is how highly I think of Dr. Boghossian. Dr. Boghossian, if you are reading this: thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for giving me perfect vision. The beauty of the world around me is a wonderful show, because of you.

Let me start by saying I was referred here by my at the time new Optometrist, who after the surgery…read moredisclosed that I was the 1st patient he referred there. For a fee. 1) You will be given one-sided information about LASIK. 2) If you have a higher correction, you will have to wear glasses again in the future. 3) They will not tell you this. 4) The Surgeon who does your operation is contracted by PLEC, there will be a disconnect between PLEC and the Surgeon resulting in confusion for your after surgery follow up. 5) If you contact PLEC after the surgery they will not answer any questions and refer you to the Surgeon, who will require you to make an appointment and visit their office at additional cost to you. 6) They will attempt to have you finance through GE Care Credit, which appears as a Credit Card on your Credit reports. They will not disclose this. You can not use this card as you would a normal Credit Account and this results in a variety of issues for you in the event that you apply for other credit. I.E... home loans, auto finance or opening other CC accounts. It basically looks like you have x-amount of credit available to you or if it's just after surgery like you have a Maxed Out Credit Card, but it's unusable anywhere but Doctors, Dentists and Vets who accept GE Care Credit. I honestly regret choosing PLEC for my LASIK procedure. The Operator (Sal) is very cordial but he's a Salesman, not a Doctor. PLEC basically owns the LASIK equipment and has local Eye Surgeons come in and perform your procedure for them. I recommend finding a Surgeon who owns and operates their own clinic and uses full disclosure .

I finally decided to have lasik surgery. I've worn glasses since junior high and moved to contacts…read moreabout eight years ago. I'm not a very good contact lens wearer. I believe I'm what one refers to as "crap" when it comes to wearing contacts. I had the type you can leave in for one month. You're supposed to take them out and clean them every couple days. Sadly, I have no concept of time. Long story short, I ended up with infections, etc... I decided to go for lasik and asked my ophthalmologist for a recommendation. He sent me to Pacific. First I had to find out if I was a candidate. I went to the clinic, where I spoke with the very nice receptionist gal and met with the clinic director, Sal Moreno, who seemed to know just about everything when it came to lasik. He's pretty frank; there are no guarantees and he makes sure you're aware of that. Once they'd determined I was a candidate, I came in and was acquainted with the operating room and got to check out all the equipment. Sal outlined exactly what would happen on the day of surgery. They also sent me home with printed instructions. Although, I felt pretty confident after the tour. I really appreciate that they take you into the area and show you everything. It makes the whole experience a bit less surreal. My surgeon was Dr Rich. Earlier, I'd had my friend, an ophthalmologist in another area, check out both surgeons at Pacific and she'd given me the thumbs up. So, in I went. They offered a couple types of sedatives. Oh, gee, I forgot to mention you aren't anaesthetized. When I first learned that (several months ago from a friend), I couldn't believe it. "Wait a minute! Hold on. You're telling me they use a laser on your eyeball while you're freakin' staring at it?!" Insert casual shrug from friend. "Yeah, but I couldn't feel it." "Oh sure", I thought. "Riiiight." Well, it turns out it's true. Anyway, I had the milder sedative, because for some crazy reason, I wasn't worried. That's probably due to all the information provided and the preparation I'd gone through with Pacific. Plus, I have the emotional IQ of a kumquat. Hah, just kidding. More like a stick of balsa wood. Moving right along... The actual procedure was exactly as Dr Rich and Mr Moreno had described to me. The worst part was the device that holds your eyeball. It's a bit painful, but mostly just feels really weird. The procedure is really fast. Dr Rich and Mr Moreno are a well oiled machine, moving efficiently and confidently, but ever so carefully. They describe what's going on and chat comfortably together. I felt I was in good hands. The first thing I said after the procedure was, "I can see your facial features!" It was pretty amazing. But, boy was I tired. My buddy drove me home and I snoozed and then listened to podcasts and audiobooks to amuse myself... no reading! (I'm a big reader.) I was religious about the eye drops. My eyes healed well. Dr Rich warned me, as did my ophthalmologist, that my eyesight would continue to adjust and change, which it did. It's been two months now and I'm very happy I had lasik. My experiences at Pacific were definitely of the five-star variety. I highly recommend them!

He is an excellent and caring provider, explaining all the options and giving his expert opinion. The measurements he obtained, not only for my significantly bad myopia (-13 diopters) and near vision, but also for my astigmatism, were perfect as I can now see all distances without contacts or glasses of any kind. After 61 years without being able to see without them, I am amazed and very happy. The surgeries proceeded exactly as he had explained they would, and I really appreciated being able to do them only one day apart so I had only the one week of recovery rather than two.

Jeff spent a good 45 min to an hour with me, to ensure that my multiple eyeglass order was exactly what I wanted, as inexpensive as it could be (leveraging my insurance) and was pleasant to work with at the same time. I did not feel rushed. The only recommendation I would make would be to have more variety of frames. In the past, selecting frames was a time consuming, fun affair, as there were SO many different styles to choose from. Now the frames are, for the most part, functional pieces rather than extensions of anyone's particular personality. I still found frames that I am very happy about but not so many that I had to buy two because I couldn't decide. All in all, great experience. I appreciate their care and time spent with me.

The initial eye exam felt like an assembly line where I was passed from one person to the next, then ended with a salesman-type (they called him a counselor) who was basically a closer. I felt like I was buying a car! That said, everyone was very pleasant and they worked around my schedule to get my surgery done before I left the country. The surgery itself was super fast and painless (albeit a bit unnerving psychologically, but that part only lasted a few seconds). I got the SMILE surgery, a slightly less invasive technique than Lasik. There was a tiny bit of irritation after the numbness wore off, but the next morning I was fine, and within a few days my vision was quite clear. I only got one eye done, so one eye is near sighted and the other is now far sighted, and my brain stitches the images together so I feel like I have 20/20 vision. It's incredible! I need prescription readers now, though, so I can do my up-close stuff without my new far-sighted eye feeling wonky. It was expensive but overall I'm happy with the results. Would recommend. Bonus: As the surgeon got ready to perform the minute-long operation, he put on an 80s station and Sade's song Smooth Operator came on. I asked if he puts this song on each time he operates, but he said it was a coincidence.
