I had a great Lasik experience with the Boston Eye Group. From the date I called to get my consultation appointment to the date that I actually got my surgery was under two weeks which was a huge draw for me. Their process for going through all of the tests during the consultation was very efficient. They answered all my questions and I never felt rushed but the appointment only needed to take about 90 minutes. On the day of the surgery everyone I interacted with was very nice and were all familiar faces from my consultation. After going home and sleeping for a few hours I woke up with nearly perfect vision. Street signs and other things far away (50 ft +) were still blurry on the first day, but after a night of sleep I felt like I had a better prescription than I ever had with glasses or contacts. The drops and the after care has been super easy and the only minor inconvenience is having to sleep with the plastic guards over your eyes.

I am writing an update 2 years post Lasik. I have no ill will against Boston Laser itself but wanted to post an update regarding a complication that I had. Even though my vision was 20/20 immediately after the procedure, my vision did get slightly worse. Not too bad that I can complain or need glasses at this moment, but I always felt that even though I could "see", my eye sight was always 95% at best. It's a really difficult feeling to describe but I can no longer experience that crystal clear vision that I had when I wore glasses and my eyes always feel a bit off (not anything related to my ability to see but my eyeballs itself feel off). I developed dry eye, starbursts, and halos which are extremely common. The dry eye got better over time but night vision is a little tough. These symptoms werent bad in my experience and they were things I could cope with. The other more significant complication was the developement of eye floaters. These are specks/cobwebs/stringy pieces in your vision and they are permanent. If you're watching TV, it's like having a dead pixel on the screen. I have these specks in my vision now, and even though there is no research to prove that Lasik causes floaters, there is a correlation linking people who had Lasik done and them getting floaters later on. Hopefully more research will be done in the future so more people are aware. If you ask your eye doctor about floaters and they downplay this possible outcome, I would go to another doctor. (Please also note that people can get floaters with age, and floaters don't only occur because of eye surgery). If I could undo this procedure I would. Glasses/contact lenses are annoying, but I'd rather deal with the annoyance than to see permanent specks in my vision. Side effects/complications aren't the same for everyone, but please do your research on this procedure and know that your eyes are a really important asset. Ive had friends/family who have had eye surgery at this same facility and they had positive outcomes. But everyone's eyes aren't the same. Please don't take the gamble if you aren't ready to face the risks involved.

The staff was very open and honest during my free consultation. They were not at all pushy with their salesmanship which I very much appreciated.My biggest concern as far as side effects was dry eyes and discomfort. I couldnt believe how smoothly the procedure went and how comfortable my eyes felt after my 4 hour nap post surgery. Such an amazing feeling to walk around without glasses and have crystal clear vision. Incredible happy with the results and to have experienced no side effects so far.So glad I went through with the procedure. Major thank you to Dr. Brenner and the staff for doing an excellent job.
