I want to Thank the Entire Team of the Woodlands Mann Eye Institute for a flawless and successful Lasik Blended Vision surgery. From the first contact with Justin as my counselor and Victoria at reception I knew this was going to be a success. At each step I was greeted with concern for my needs and had each part of the surgery and possibilities discussed with me. They made me feel comfortable with the procedure and recovery and ensured I understood what to expect. Once the day came the Team of Techs, Optometrists and the Surgeon all worked together to ensure a pleasant and successful procedures that had me seeing better the instant the surgery was over. The next morning at my follow-up appointment my blended vision was 20/15.Again, Thank You to My Vision TeamVictoria Hinojosa-Front Desk CoordinatorAngelique Tarazona-Surgery TechLori Bryan-Surgery TechGrace Lau-Surgery PrepJustin Sullivan-Counselor and InstructionsDr. Sabrina Charrier-Pre-Check OptometristDr. Dana Ondrias-Pre-Check OptometristDr. Paul Mann-Surgeon

Just had LASIK done here and my experience was awesome. Ashley Hassen answered every question I had very quickly before my procedure. Dr. Wright did a wonderful job on my eyes and now I have 20/15 vision. One bad thing is the eye shields that I received after the surgery. They are these plastic thing that you have to tape to your face every time you go to bed, and they fall off very easily while sleeping. It would have been much better if they had given me some sleeping goggles that other institutes give. Overall it was a very good experience and I love my new perfect vision.

I compared Mann and the "other guys". Mann was clearly the choice for me. Very convenient, easy and the staff was very professional and helpful. I had the surgery at the Woodlands location. They were WONDERFUL!! Justin was helpful in explaining what would happen and the surgical team was equally helpful. I am very happy with my Lasik experience at Mann Eye.

I want to THANK Dr. Mann and the staff at Mann Eye Institute and Laser Center for giving me the vision I always dreamed of having. Being an avid swimmer wearing contacts wasn't ideal since they would fall out or I would accidently tear one so my husband suggested lasik. I did a lot of homework and asked around to all my friends who had lasik and hands down Mann Eye Institute came out on top. I went in for a free lasik consultation and was blown away by my amazing experience. The staff and doctor's knowledge and explanation of the procedure and what to expect made me feel at ease. I had my lasik two weeks later and I couldn't be happier!!!! The care I received during my post op visits was just as impressive as during my consultation. Everyone should experience the crisp vision I have achieved after having lasik with Dr. Mann. You guys Rock!!!!

Where do I even begin? First of all, please know that I am not only an ICU RN, but also house supervisor at a hospital here in Houston. I am the last person who wants to give a poor review to another medical professional, but the treatment I received at Mann Eye Center I would not even dream of revisiting on one of my own patients. All began well, I had my eye exam, got cleared for Lasik, signed some papers, and set the date. Before my procedure, I had been doing my own research about what to expect. I discovered from some friends/family that the "pain free" recovery is not always so. One of my family members described waking up the next day feeling like there was "glass in her eye"! Now, I know that all good things have a price, but why suffer in pain when it is completely preventable? I called and spoke with the receptionist/scheduler about my concerns. I told her I don't want to take the chance of being at home recovering and hurting, and requested some pain medicine just in case. (I'm not sure how this sounds to anyone not in the medical field but, TRUST ME, your doctor is not all seeing/knowing, nor do they spend their days wondering about all the things that could possibly "go wrong" once you walk out of their office. You have to look out for yourself. So, this non-medical person (no offense to her, but it's a matter of fact. You wouldn't take advice about your broke down car from a chef right? Why medicine from a receptionist?) spent about 15 minutes trying to convince me that they had "never heard of anyone having pain after the procedure" and they would give me "magic drops to numb my eyes" What I told her was this: "Well, let's say I trust you and have this procedure without a backup pain med. I will wake up blind, possibly in pain, unable to go anywhere or do anything, and without the means to take care of myself, all because you did not honor this simple, reasonable request. I'm telling you right now, if I wake up the next day and experience any more than mild discomfort (while half blind no less!), you will be the first person I call, and I will not be very happy." After that, she spoke to the doctor (Please let me be clear that I do not blame this lady, but the "system" set up by the surgeon for this crazy situation!) and got me my damn script (Just a humorous side note for all you medical people out there, I did all that fighting for 6 tablets of Demerol.) My surgery was scheduled for 9AM. I had worked all night (7PM-7AM to be exact), and wanted to get the thing over and go home to sleep the day and night away. I received a phone call about an hour before my appointment, asking if I could come in at 2PM instead. Now, being a nurse, I understood about surgery and medical situations, and that they are not always able to adhere to a strict schedule. I agreed and had my boyfriend drop me off at the center at 2PM. Making a long 2 HOUR story short, I did not get called out of the waiting room until 4PM! At that point, I was exhausted and annoyed, but ready to get through it and get it over with. I sat in a chair and was given some ibuprofen and 10mg of Valium by the nurse. In the procedure room was Dr. Mann (Junior), a nurse, and a technical assistant. They brought me to the table and asked me to lay down. After fixing the machine above my face, a "suction cup" like piece of equipment was lowered onto my left eyeball. At this time Dr. Mann Jr. asked me to stare at the small light in the middle, and not move my eye until he said so. Though I could not feel it, it seems that I was having some sort of eye "spasm". I tried VERY hard to keep my eye still, but Dr. Mann just kept yelling at me to not move. We tried a few times, and he seemed to become more and more outwardly frustrated saying "This has never happened before!" and "If you can't hold your eye still we will have to cancel the surgery." It was then decided to take a break and try one more time. I was taken out and told to wait 10 minutes in a chair outside the room. Dr. Mann came out and asked me what happened. When I explained to him that I usually have a high tolerance for meds and the 10mg of Valium may have not been enough, he proceeded to question me about how much alcohol I drink in a day. During this time, I also had the pleasure of hearing the tech talking to her significant other on the phone down the hall about how she was "running late because of a difficult patient". Once back in the room, it took everything I had, but we got it done. (In case you are wondering, YES, I did wake up in pain). I came back for my follow up the next day (with no apology/mention of the "difficult" time we had the day before). After that, I never went back. With the exception of the lovely office staff, I felt like no one cared at all about me or my feelings. They were there to take my money and run out the door. Medically, everything was "successful" but, when it came to "customer service"...total failure.
