Great place for your vision enhancements. I did the PRK lasik because in my profession I cannot chance having a cornea detachment from an impact & I can have readjustment years later(not with lasik flap). Once the laser cuts a flap, part of the cornea does not heal over, leading to passibillity of a detachment from an impact. Not so with PRK.Only draw back was the extended recovery time (1 week). 1st 3 days was very uncomfortable with very sensitive eyes even when closed. I cannot over emphasize the importance of artificial tears. Only thing is that they did not emphasize the importance of heated eye compress has on recovery. First 3 days I heat treated my eyes 4 times a day, 30 min each time. Helped immensely with releaving raw achy feeling. Took an entire week for 80% vision, and 1 month for 100%.

I continue to have the best experiences at Boston Laser, Dr. Finkelstein is my doctor and she is wonderful. I just had an emergency eye infection, they were wonderful to immediately schedule me in and took care of me right away. Really good people, I trust them implicitly with my eye care and am very grateful to have found them.

Once I knew I wanted LASIK, I actually went to 3 different clinics to do some research and actually chose Boston Laser based on their reviews, their financing options and how comfortable I felt in their office. Naturally all consultations take time, each place does different tests, but at a separate LASIK clinic location I was in their office for 3.5-4 hours and when I decided to leave without paying a guaranteed surgery day deposit because I wanted to discuss the finances with my husband, they were pushy. Boston Laser is the exact opposite. My consultation was quick, comfortable and informative. The staff at the Wellesley office, where my consultation was, is also very nice and not pushy at all. On the day of my LASIK, I had to go to their Brookline location. There is only street parking so leave time to find a spot and walk. The waiting room had food and coffee and was BUSY. I did end up waiting longer than I expected, but it was a Friday (surgery day) in December and it's right before year end so I'm sure lots of patients were using their HSAs. The procedure was surprisingly quick (less than 15 mins), almost completely painless and yes ODD. You can "see" it all happening. Dr. Brenner was great, comforting and kept me informed about what was going on the entire time. After going home, my eyes started burning and watering like crazy as the numbing drops wear off, but I still managed to squeeze in a 4 hour required nap. Woke up, had some dinner with my family, then went back to bed with my trusty plastic goggles taped on. The next day I woke up with really blood shot eyes but with perfect vision!! I followed the rules (avoid getting water or soaps in the eye) and actually avoided eye makeup for a whole week (recommended is only 2 days, but I didn't want to chance fudging up my new eyes!). I haven't had any issues with dry eye or halos or floaters. Now when I'm driving at night, headlights do have a starburst look to them, but nothing worse than my night blindness with an astigmatism before and nothing horribly distracting.All in all I'm incredibly happy with my results! I'm so glad I went through with LASIK and so happy with Boston Laser!

Everyone was so nice and explained everything that would happen! Nothing hurt and the procedure was so quick. I walked out and was able to see perfectly after my 4 hour nap!!
