LASIK
My name is Dan and I am a 30 year-old probation/parole officer.
I have been wearing glasses since the fourth grade and contacts
since the 6th grade. My vision before the surgery was 20/550.
In layman's terms, I couldn't even see the big E on the eye
chart. I had been interested in corrective surgery for quite
some time. I had originally looked at RK surgery but due to
my career there was a good chance of going blind with a sudden
eye injury. Then I heard about LASIK surgery and the fact that
it had fewer risks than RK. Again I was interested, but since
it dealt with my eyes, I was still skeptical. A friend told
me about Dr. Woolfson and CLE, and I was impressed with his
skill and success rate. I decided to take the risk and have
the surgery. I have not regretted it since. Right after the
surgery I went from 20/550 to around 20/30. The next day I tested
20/15 in my right eye and 20/20 in my left. So far my eyes have
maintained their strength. It is so great to be able to wake
up in the morning and not have to look for my glasses or stumble
to the bathroom to put in my contacts. It was a wonderful feeling
to go home and get rid of my old contact supplies. Thank you
Dr. Woolfson for giving me the gift of sight again.

Have you ever felt that you've been given a new lease on life?
That's exactly how I feel since I've had LASIK. Instead of
green fuzz around a tree trunk, I can now actually see the
outline of the leaves. I have the chance again to enjoy so
many of the little things in our everyday life that we take
so much for granted. Thank you so much, Dr. Woolfson, for
renewing my eyesight and giving me the chance to see clearly
again.

I didn't want to wear reading glasses!! My vision wasn't too
bad and I had only a little astigmatism, or so I thought.
You don't know how poorly you see until someone makes you
see GREAT! With only seconds of lasering, my eyesight was
returned to better than 20/15. Am I an exception? Maybe, but
so was my surgeon, Dr. Woolfson!! I thank you everyday.

My vision has improved so much! My glasses got in the way
everyday and it was difficult to wear my lens for very long.
I don't know why I waited so long to make this decision but
I'm glad I finally did. Several doctors I talked with wanted
to do the surgery on the same day that I saw them but I felt
pressured. Woolfson Eye Institute was patient and answered all my
questions before they scheduled a surgery date. I even called
them back a couple of times before my LASIK to ask more! Thanks
again.

I wanted to know why LASIK at Woolfson Eye Institute cost more than
the other place I saw advertising in the paper. They told
me all the services that are included in their price. I didn't
have to pay extra for the stuff those other low price places
didn't mention in the ad price. My cost came out better when
I added it all up and I was getting very experienced doctors
and new technology too. Thank you for everything.

I just wanted to write and thank you and your staff for giving
me the gift of uncorrected vision. While it has only been
4 days, I believe I am seeing as well or better than I did
with contacts. At my first post-op appointment, I was seeing
20/20 without corrective lens for the first time in 29 years.
You and your staff did an excellent job at explaining the
procedure, the risks, the procedure itself and finally with
my post op care. You can be sure that when it comes to others
having the LASIK procedure, I will refer them to you and your
staff as a result of your excellent care and treatment.

"I had my LASIK consult at the end of November, when
Dr. Parisi told me that I was a good candidate for LASIK.
Let me add that there was no charge for this LASIK consultation.
After wearing glasses for 25 years of my 35 years, I can finally
see without the aid of any vision device. Had I only known
what life was going to be like without glasses and that the
procedure was so simple and safe - I think I would have had
this procedure much earlier in my life."
