    I had Lasik at Mann Eye (South Austin) last Friday, 9/14/18, and could not be happier! The day of surgery I arrived at the clinic at 10:30 and was all done by 12:15. I spent less than 15 minutes in the actual surgery room. The procedure itself felt very fast. They gave me a stuffed animal to cuddle, a heavy blanket to keep me warm as its very cold in the room, and a nurse held my hand- poor thing... I probably crushed it! I was given valium to relax before the procedure and help sleep after- it definitely worked! Dr. Mann called around 9:15 that night to see how I was feeling and seeing. I went in the next morning for a follow up appointment and was told I am seeing 20/15 with both eyes open, 20/20 with one open/one closed on each side. I could not be happier! I wish I had done this sooner.

    This place did a great job looking after my mom. Staff was really friendly. We could not get any service for the eye since it required a different insurance, but they gave us all the information to look for insurance and did not charge my mom at all for the consultation. We hope to continue our surgery there once we finalize things. Wonderful place!

    Im a month post-op from my lasik procedure. All is going well. I have 20/20 vision as if yesterday and everything seems fairly crisp at this point. brbrThe entire staff seems nice. The facility is clean. Initially it was kind of difficult to locate the actual building. brbrThe price was higher than most I have heard. brbrDr Barker was extremely nice, and he did my procedure. The first day I met him was the day of the procedure though, and I havent seen him since! Every time I have been in for a follow up I see a different doctor. brbrThe front desk lady, kristen is seriously the sweetest person ever and is always helpful and keeps everyone posted on any delays. I have been in multiple times and only once were they running behind. brbrThe day of the procedure went smoothly. I arrived at the office with my designated driver. All the paperwork was signed and the payment remitted. I talked to dr barker and he explained everything and then offered to pray with us, which was a nice touch in my opinion. I received two valium and an ibuprofen. I was very relaxed. Almost too relaxed - I was laughing when the procedure started and was scared my eyes wouldnt be able to hold still. They then clamped this device to my eye - which literally felt like a toilet plunger on my eyeball. It was a very firm pressure, not painful though. I lost track of time, but the entire procedure took less than like 4 min according to my friend. When i stood up for the first time I literally could see but everything felt as though I was looking thru tears or opened my eyes underwater. The dr checked my eyes and placed the shields on and we left. I pretty much slept for the next three and a half hours and only woke up when I felt tears rolling down my face. I took off my shields and was amazed I could see. I started using my drops and everything was fine. I only felt a minor stinging sensation but I would not describe it as pain. I worked on my laptop without any issues. The Dr called to check on me in the afternoon. Once night set in - that was a different story. I saw halos around the lights and every single light or light reflecting device was glowing like crazy. I immediately felt buyers remorse. At my first follow up I mentioned it and they said it would improve with time, and true to their word, it did improve and today I feel like my vision in regard to the lights is perfectly normal - mild halos if any. brbrI would give Mann Eye 5 stars. I still have my eyes and my vision. I wilbrbrAt my follow-up today (8/22) my vision is now 20/15 in both eyes! Super exciting! And my eyes still feel great.
