My whole procedure lasted about 2.5 hours, but the surgery part took less than 20 minutes. Plenty of numbing eye drops were provided and the doctors were happy to add more when I told them I felt sensations more in one eye than the other. For reference I'm very sensitive with my eyes to the point that I can't handle putting in or taking out contacts, so for me there was some discomfort during the procedure but it was managable and quick. After you've been given time for the numbing drops to kick in, a clamp is put in place to hold your eyelids open, and I remember feeling the numbed version of my eyes being brushed, then water being trickled onto them, then a slight smell when the laser was active. Then a bandage contact was placed and the procedure repeated for the next eye. Then one final checkup and I was good to go. Day 1, the day of the surgery, I was sensitive to light so I kept my eyes closed most of the day or had sunglasses on. Day 2 was similar, irritation peaked at night and then day 3 was when my eyes were at their most sensitive. Since then it's been uphill as far as comfort, on day 5 my vision was somewhere between pre-surgery no glasses and pre-surgery glasses. As of day 19 I'd estimate one eye is 90% and the other 85% of my pre-surgery glasses vision.

I had a great experience at Boston Vision getting Lasik done. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Thank you.

Very efficient process. They work hard to have all material you need to understand the procedure and post op well documented. The procedure itself was simple. Highly recommend!!

My experience at Boston Vision was great. The office in Brookline is brand new, all the staff are friendly and supportive, and the surgery was a breeze. I felt at ease during the whole process. The surgery itself was less than 20mins. I did not experience any pain throughout the surgery or healing process. Waking up with 20/20 vision the next day was surreal. I would recommend this clinic to any who are seeking vision correction surgery.

Consult appointment was thorough, all staff with experience. They gave me many opportunities to ask questions. Appointment was long, but they sent several emails prior to alert me of the length of the appointment. The facility was neat and clean and they wiped all equipment down prior to use.Surgery day was about 3 hours total. Staff were friendly and more exams were performed. I was confident going into the OR with Dr. Melki. Procedure was less than 10 minutes. New facility is very nice with plenty of street parking right out front.
