Thank you Ellis Eye Center, my vision is back and now I am at 20/20! They have super friendly staff, go see Marleny and she can get you the package you need to get your vision back.

I got Epi-LASIK done about 2 weeks ago at Ellis Eye. Like everyone else, I was nervous about someone cutting into my eyes then shooting lasers at them. I went in for the consultation and set up my surgery for a week later. The surgery itself was painless, but the first couple of days of recovery really sucked. You get pain killers and sedatives, though, so I took full advantage of that and slept for literally days.<br><br>The staff is great. Maleny and the lady whose name I didn't catch were both super encouraging and flexible to work with my budget. It looks like a regular doctor's office, not a spa, which is fine. Great place and I'm referring all my friends here.

I went to Dr Ellis at the San Jose office and I thought that the staff was great and waited only a short time to see somebody. I went to the Ellis eye center at El Cerrito and went to confer with the eye surgeon before the surgery and I decided that Lasik was not right for me after talking to the surgeon. I left with no sales pressure or nothing like people are saying. I have 20/40 and probably didn't really need lasik after all. I don't understand all of the negative ads. I guess that after doing over 50,000 of these operations like Dr Ellis has done you are going to run into a few cry babies along the way

Bait and switch operation. $499 per eye will not apply to 99% of LASIK patients. They will upcharge for your near-sightedness, upcharge for your astigmatism, upcharge for a newer laser, and upcharge for wavefront.<br><br>You get what you pay for. Eye surgery is one thing you should not go cheap on. I promise you that. Surgeons who promise the cheapest surgery are not the best surgeons.

IF it was me, I'd quit way before sixty thousand procedures...<br><br>BUT that ain't gonna happen with Dr. Ellis!!! Not sure about other eye surgury places, but for me it's very rare to walk into a Dr. Office environment that's full of charming, highly respectful individuals. Since that's how it is at Ellis Eye LMC, it's clear as mud why everyone who works here loves their job enough that it shows everyday... especially with Marleny and Veronica!<br><br>So what y'all wanna know the most is the quality and price... well my painless (I must confess, I wasn't fearless) PRK surgery took less than 8 minutes and after about 3-5 months my vision is REALLY REALLY close to 20/20. I'm pretty sure the price I paid was WAY lower than other places. So of course, I'm more than satisfied.
