You can tell Boston Vision is well seasoned in Lasik procedures. All the staff members are very professional and efficient while being personable and giving time for questions. The procedure itself went quite fast. I will say when the pre-op video says, "you may experience pressure" in the beginning of the procedure, it really should have said, "you will experience very strong pressure on your eyeball". It felt like my eyeball was about to pop. But knowing that the procedure is super short helped to keep me calm. I am in the midst of follow up appointments now. It seems there is slight inflammation in one eye. I appreciate their attentiveness beyond the initial procedure with follow through until healing.

All the staff was really nice, answered all my questions, the surgery went great! Im 1 week post op now and I can see waaaay better that Ive ever been able to my entire life.The only thing I would say is that I didnt receive much attention from Dr. Melki, we spend so much money with the surgery and he didnt even stay in the room for more then 2 minutes. I asked him about going to the gym and running because I did this surgery for something that I really needed to and I needed to know when I could get back to training hard and I was worried because I didnt think a week of recovery was enough for going back to weightlifting and when I asked him, he told me to read the instruction sheet and whatever says there, that was it, he didnt want to tell me something different so I wouldnt complain later that each place says a different thing. But I was nervous and anxious, I wanted to hear from my doctor what he thought of it, not from a paper. Most of things I knew about the surgery is because I did my own research or because his staff answered for me, but he didnt have patience to answer questions at all.But Im still really grateful for him because he did very well on the surgery.
