I was recommended to go to Boston Laser from a friend who happens to be an Eye Doctor. He told me all about Dr Melki and how he was so happy with his whole Lasik experience. Well he was absolutely right.!!!I went for my consultation in November and had my treatment done on Feb 14, 2014. The staff at Boston Laser are great: they make you feel so comfortable. Any question I had before, during, and after my treatment was always answered promptly. Dr Melki, Rick Young, Rachel, Dr V, and the rest of the staff are very professional. I'm so glad I did my treatment there. I love having my distance vision back !!! Thanks Dr Melki and Boston Laser.

Dr. Melki's expertise is absolutely second-to-none. I had cataract surgery in one eye (sports injury), and LASIK in the other, so I've experienced a breadth of the catalogue offered. My vision went from -7.5 or so (that's 20/800) to 20/20 in one eye and better than perfect, 20/15, in the other. Dr. Melki was honest, to the point, and answered my random emailed questions in minutes, even when i sent them very late at night. The facilities are clean, the staff is polite. Know, however, that you aren't going into your childhood's eye doctor's office. This is a pretty massive operation, and you could see upwards of 5 or 6 medical professionals in a visit. I felt a little passed around - not a very personal experience. They have at least four waiting rooms, depending on what tests you need, if your eyes are dilating, etc. It's as efficient as possible, but don't expect you'll have the attention of the highest chieftains for more than absolutely necessary. And, as ever, take your medical experience into your own hands. Dr. Melki didn't describe every detail of upcoming my experience because he's not a mind-reader and because he'll laser a LOT of eyes each Friday (I think my eye was #44), so I had to make a point of sending emails to the office when I thought of something. And sitting on the gurney for my cataract surgery (Melki does those at hospitals, not at the clinic), the instructions the hospital had were for the WRONG EYE. But Boston Laser's paperwork were for the correct eye, which was a comfort. It took some time to change the instructions. But then they put a tiny stitch on the front of my eye that i couldn't see or feel and they removed the next day, but I still feel totally metal. There seemed to be a lot of post-procedure checkups, which was good, even if Brookline is a pain for me to get to. I feel very well taken care of. I didn't even mention yet - I LOVE MY NEW EYES. I thought that since I've worn contacts every day since I was 10 (that's 23 years, people) that I must not notice my contacts. I was wrong. An itch here, a lens adjustment there, extra fast blinking to clear something up, stinging after taking them out. I had no idea how much I thought about them!

I once had a prescription of -5.50, now I have 20/20 vision in both eyes and I've been taking advantage of this since my surgery in February!! Dr. Melki and the Boston Laser staff are amazing. They were very nice, thorough and caring. best investment ever and I'm very glad I came here.
