If you're deciding to get Lasik, this is for sure the best place to go! Everyone is super nice and helpful. I loved the service and the results!!! I highly recommend Boston Laser!!!
I had a great experience throughout the process. Minus one star because after the procedure (Lasik), they took me to a room but failed to mention (remind me) that I might have intense burning in my eyes similar to getting soap in your eyes. Which doesn't sound horrible... But if you just had surgery and you can't touch your eyes, and you don't know if this is normal... you start to panic. I read in my paperwork later that this can happen, SO I was warned... but a reminder would have been ideal. It was a very long 30 minutes for me. Once the Dr. came in, he added numbing drops and I was good to go. Very friendly staff - overall I'd definitely recommend this practice.
I just wish I had done it sooner! This is not a cosmetic surgery. It is a life changing procedure that completely improves quality of life. I was a little apprehensive in theory as I thought maybe contacts and glasses were not that bad ... From the moment you walk in to Boston Laser their welcoming atmosphere and staff put you at ease, and upon meeting Dr. Melki I was quickly reassured by the statistical success, his level of professionalism, bedside manner and experience. He took time to answer all of my questions until I felt comfortable proceeding (or declining - he made it clear the choice was mine).The actual procedure itself is unbelievably fast. There is a little prep time the morning of but you are in and out of the surgical suite in less than 5 minutes. It is completely painless. As soon as he was done I could see. I was shocked. I went home and took a rest and when I awoke I had 20/15 vision. Recovery entails protecting your eyes for a few more days while sleeping so you don't rub them unconsciously.Now a few months out, I almost take it for granted , but the reality is I can't remember ever seeing the world so clearly. Sometimes its' just the little things like being able to read the TV Guide from bed, seeing more distinct colors in a flower, or not running out of contacts on vacation, but being able to wake up every day, open my eyes and really see in invaluable. Thank you Dr. Melki and Boston Laser!
