I am writing to express my thanks and to communicate my complete satisfaction with my “no cut” laser surgery you performed on my eyes in August of 2010. My eyes were very bad (-12 with 5 diopters of astigmatism) and I did not even expect to be a candidate for the surgery when I went to your office for a consultation. You were very upfront with me, explaining that getting to 20-20 was nearly impossible, but 20-30 or even 20-25 was possible. I told you that unless I could be reasonably sure that I won’t need glasses for quite some time that I did not want to proceed. You told me that you were 99 percent sure I would not need glasses for 99 percent of the time. I felt very comfortable with this and I do appreciate that you managed my expectations about the procedure – I simply could not expect 20-20 vision given how bad my eyesight was to begin with. Five months later my vision is 20-25 and I never wear glasses. Just last week I went to the DMV and got the restriction for corrective vision taken off my license. It is a pleasure being able to see without glasses or contacts. Going to the beach with my kids used to be frustrating since I could not really see what was going on, now I can fully enjoy going to the beach.
