As I got older, my visions has gotten more and more blurred. When I went to a laser eye doctor in…read moreBoston, I got a price list, starting at several thousand dollars (per eye). Needless to say, they didn't take Medicare. Then I went to Dr. Zanger right here in Gloucester. He did one eye, then a year later, the other. Both came out seeing like they did 60 years ago - and covered by Medicare. His exam is thorough and professional, and the results - at least for me - have been spectacular. We are really lucky to have Cape Ann Eye Specialists right here at home.

WARNING- Avoid this place. I finally switched to another optometrist after using Gurley for years…read more My appointments at Gurley's involved waiting an hour plus in his crowded waiting room. Once you are seen by the assistant and they put drops in your eyes, it's another 35 minutes sitting in a hallway not being able to see. They then take you in. At the place I gratefully have switched to, I have never waited more than 3 minutes to be seen. I also found out that the drops to dilate ones eyes work in a few minutes - not over 30 as told that's the time at Gurley's! So happy to have left this practice and so is my husband. It's sad to see lots of elderly people with their caregivers waiting for hours in the waiting room. Seems this org. cares more about $$$ than patients!

Let's talk Lasik. Granted, it hasn't even been 48 hours since my surgery, so if my eyes fall out, I…read morepromise I'll update this review. I'm the type of person where if there's even a microscopic chance of disaster, I'm certain it'll happen to me. I prepped myself for this surgery by stumbling around my house blindfolded while asking "Could I live like this?" Even with that answer being a resounding "NO," I decided to finally take the plunge before my 40th birthday. In sum, so far it's one of the best decisions I've ever made, and I strongly regret not doing it a decade ago. The experience at Clear Advantage is streamlined and professional. You quickly feel like you are in great hands and that nothing can go wrong. From the front desk, to the initial assessments with the techs, everyone is extraordinarily friendly while also emanating an air of "chill out dude, we do this all the time." And really, that's all I needed to accept the frightening proposition of lasers slicing my eyes open. The surgery itself is quick and painless. Doctor Peters calmly explains the process, you're in the chair for maybe 10 minutes, and the laser is more fascinating than terrifying. I entered the operation legally blind. Immediately afterwards my vision was still blurry, but much clearer than before. After a 2 hour, Valium-induced nap, I awoke to 20/15 vision. I only had 20/20 with contact lenses. It was a revelation. You must avoid all tv/phone screens during the first day and are on a strict prescription and lubricated eyedrops routine for the next month. It's a nuisance, but easily worth it. I live nearly an hour from Clear Advantage and chose them after a recommendation from my local eye doctor. I strongly feel like they must be the best in the region. Doctor Peters and the entire staff make the process clear, casual and pain-free. It's been nearly 30 years since I've had vision like this without contacts/glasses. Don't make my mistake and rule out this operation from fear.

LASIK. I am writing this review less than 24 hours after my procedure and have already driven to a…read morefollow up appointment sans pain and with 20/15 vision. This is all truly surreal. I was so impressed with the kindness and thoroughness of the process and staff. I initially wanted to get both eyes done but after reviewing one of my eyes they denied it due to some scarring from a previous ulcer. They noted that their practice is conservative with the patients they take and let's be honest, that is EXACTLY what you want when you're going to have a procedure affecting your eyesight. In terms of the procedure I definitely had some nerves but they truly put me at ease with explaining how quick and foolproof the technology is, if your eyes move, the laser moves. How cool? If anyone is on the fence about getting this procedure, I cannot stress enough how incredible Dr. Peters is as well as the whole staff at Clear Advantage. The 1-2 hours of discomfort after the numbing meds wore off is nothing compared to the feeling of waking up being able to see unassisted and without pain. I live a hour away and I am so happy I made the trek to Portsmouth to get this done. 10/10, do it.

Also their staff is very professional quickly review my meds and do the eye chart thing using some sort of projector to mirror thing instead of a paper eye chart.

Let me treat her with an adult's courtesy. 3 ~ Chelsea's response? "Thank you for your patience."??? Not so much. Try an exasperated, impatient, sarcastic, scolding "I'll take the next customer. Just READ THE SIGNS, folks." She was evidently referring to the "Open" sign, which of course read "Open" for the previous 10 minutes, when she'd been waiting on the previous customer. Nothing had changed, and she was literally hidden behind an enormous partition, so common courtesy compelled me to presume nothing, and to kindly await her. I can't read minds, you see, nor see through partitions. And yet her tone CLEARLY conveyed that she imagined herself to be dealing not with a Gentleman, but with an idiot. Ironically, she was correct. She was only mistaken in how closely the idiot was sitting. * The Doc and others were excellent.

Dr. Sang is the best doctor of any type that I have ever had. She is extraordinarily thorough,…read morehighly skilled, and takes as much time as necessary to go over every detail. She is also extremely warm, compassionate and can explain complex problems in a very clear way. I have been seeing her for many years ever since she did emergency laser surgery on me after an accident. Yes, sometimes the wait is long, but you are told in advance how much time to allow for your appointment. It is absolutely worth the wait if you want the most comprehensive, experienced evaluation/follow up. All the staff are great. Monica is a gem and all the technicians and students revere Dr. Sang, for good reason. I always take Dr. Sang's recommendations regarding other aspects of my health as well. She looks at my general health and reviews all my test results and gives me solid, thoughtful advice.

It is a privilege to write about Dr. Sang and her team. Not only is Dr. Sang an elite and amazing…read moredoctor, but she shows compassion and really cares. Sometimes, that makes you feel better and is more needed than the treatments! At a time when I feared losing my vision due to macular degeneration, she was reassuring and supportive , and always answers my never ending list of questions, and with patience. Another side of Dr. Sang that I recently learned about is her mentorship. There are a group of young college grads working there who are taking a gap year and preparing to get into medical school. She is so giving and proud of how many of these interns have gone on to great careers. Each time you go for an appointment, it's a "major production." There are so many steps in the process and I have come to understand why it takes so long -- they take no shortcuts! There is a huge staff that supports Dr. Sang and each one has a specialty, from the people who answer the phone and make appts. to the people who do complicated eye scans. I don't envy the appt. people as everyone seems to want a different time -- including me -- and it's hard to make everyone happy, although they try. I guess my only complaint is that I wish I could turn back Dr. Sang's clock about 25 years so that she'd be in practice for another 25+ years. While she is around, I feel incredibly lucky for her to be my doctor!
