Had my Lasik surgery done last week and immediately began to enjoy my new fresh blended vision with no eyeglasses of any kind. I was amazed with their level of attention, service and professionalism. I could not be happier!

After a bad experience at another clinic almost shut me off of LASIK, I have to say that I love this place. My LASIK surgery was one of the best things I've ever done for myself, and it was also a great experience thanks to Dr. Mann and his staff. First, I thought I'd never have the guts for LASIK because I pass out every time I need to have blood drawn. Actually, sometimes I pass out while the nurse is prepping me to have blood drawn, even before a needle touches me! It's a very embarrassing situation that I've had to live with my entire life so to actually volunteer to have a procedure done to me was a big deal. So how did I survive LASIK and why am I so happy? The staff: Wow, the staff here is amazing. From the moment you schedule your first appointment, to all the follow up appointments you have, everyone here is consistently giving customers their 100% best. They're kind, understanding, cheerful, and caring. They're also clearly very happy to be working here which gives the place a good vibe the moment you step inside the office. I also met Dr. Mann the day of my procedure and he is probably one of the coolest doctors around. (Good vibes do spread down from the top). Decor: The waiting room has a lot of good light and is pretty spacious, which is good since a ton of patients come through here. It's not uber fancy but it's clean and well-kept, and there's plenty of magazines and water, and even snacks sometimes. You won't be sitting long though, they're on schedule here. Procedure: First, I love how hygienic they are here. Regardless if it's your first appointment or your 4th, they always consistently wipe down any surfaces your face will touch with an alcohol pad. They also made me feel comfortable during each appointment, patiently answered any questions and even educated me on my eyes, so I was not concerned about the LASIK procedure during any of the initial appointments. The day of the procedure I started to feel a little nervous (the same feelings I get when I'm about to give blood which also includes dizziness, shortness of breath etc..) they gave me a valium, and it worked like a charm. I relaxed immediately. There's also multiple staff members and doctors, as well as Dr. Mann, which all stand around you while your having it done (you're not alone in a dark room like in the scary movies) and hearing them talk to each other was the last touch I needed to put me at ease. The procedure was painless and quick, actually the procedure was so quick that I didn't even have time to process that I just had LASIK surgery. The surgery was over and I thought there was more to do. lol (The only thing I felt was a slight pressure on my eyes which lasted 2 seconds per eye, so if you close your eyes and touch them with your finger, that's what it feels like). After that I went home and slept for the rest of the day. One of the best sleeps ever too. I woke up, drank some water and went back to sleep without testing my vision. But the next morning, wow, it was like night and day. I had perfect vision, what a surreal experience. I did need to use a lot of drops during the first week of recovery but it's been a while now and my eyes are perfect. It's like I was born with perfect eyes just like everyone else who has perfect eyes. To this day I have 20/15 vision and the best part is that I no longer have to waste time and money buying contacts, solutions, waiting in line etc.. plus putting contacts on, taking them off, having red, burning eyes, or dealing with glasses, cleaning them, fixing them etc.. such a hassle. My life is SO much better now, that LASIK was more than worth every penny. Thanks to Dr. Mann I had a LASIK procedure at a much more affordable cost than other centers, and returning for follow up appointments was always nice because the staff is so gracious. Overall: This was a wonderful experience and one of the best things I've ever done for myself. ** Note: I had a bad experience at Dr. Dell's laser center and I ended up not having my procedure there because the staff was SO rude and careless. Not to mention I had to ask them to wipe the surfaces of the machines which were filthy and they didn't even have any alcohol pads! I used a kleenex from my purse and the surface was covered in make-up and someone else's skin oils. Gross! They are also a lot more expensive too, so I said goodbye. (I almost quit having LASIK done at all until fellow yelp reviewers as well as a real life friend recommended Dr. Mann with raving results, I'm very grateful for having taken their advice to give Dr. Mann a try.)

This place is amazing! After telling me I should get Lasik for about a year, my boyfriend finally convinced me to just go for it. So he took me to Mann Eye, the same place he got Lasik at several years ago (but their Houston office.) He said they were the best...and they really are. I had no unusual complications (typical dry eye for a few weeks after, and some burning about an hour after surgery...not fun but I made it through!) and the staff was super super nice. I was absolutely terrified the day of my surgery, and the staff and doctor were very sweet, politely answered all my questions and concerns and reassured me that it was a safe and quick procedure. The doctor talked me through the whole surgery, itself, too. Love this place! If you're considering getting Lasik, DO IT AND DO IT AT MANN EYE!!!!!!! It has changed my life and these people are pro and super friendly!!!! Had a misunderstanding with the people in the billing department in Houston...they drafted a payment from my account without my signature on paper or my permission on that date, I overdrafted and got pretty effing pissed. BUT all in all I would still highly highly recommend this place to anyone. GET LASIK HERE!! JUST DO IT!!

I can seeeeeeeeeeeeee!! Lasik was the best decision I have made. It has truly changed my life. The staff at Mann Eye is efficient and very friendly. I never had to wait more than 5 minutes in their waiting room. I felt comfortable the entire time and was able to reach someone in the office before/after my surgery very quickly. I recommend Mann Eye 100%.
