    Getting LASIK was one of my worst fears, but a lot of my friends recommended Mann Eye Institute.Mann Eye Austin was at the SXSW wellness expo with a drawing for 50% off, and I won! This made the procedure affordable for me, and all the signs pointed to Mann eye, so I was very excited to have the ability to get this procedure done.My father actually got eye surgery at The Woodlands Mann Eye center location. He sadly passed away about 5 years later from cancer, but not having to wear the heavy glasses he had his whole life was one of the highlights of his final years. (Everyone wishes that they would've done it sooner.)The staff at Mann eye were always easy to get ahold of and answered any questions I had. My anxiety was crazy high the day of surgery, so I do wish I would've requested to have been able to take the valium earlier in the morning. By the time I took it, it didn't actually kick in until I got home. They said they give it to you to help you sleep after surgery, and not necessarily for anxiety. Though I didn't have any anxiety medication, the staff really helped to calm my nerves.I was lucky enough to have the procedure performed by Dr. Mike Mann himself! He was very nice and performed the procedure perfectly, and under 10 minutes. I would definitely recommend holding one of the nurse's hands during the procedure. That really helped me during the unpleasant part, which is the pressure you experience under the first machine, where the laser creates the flap. The second machine which is the laser that reshapes your cornea was no problem.One of my other fears was the potential of not having great night vision or halos that could last 3-6 months in the recovery period. I am lucky to have had an easy and speedy recovery. While some patients experience irritation for a week, I was good to go the next day. The eye drops made the foreign object sensation go away, and within a couple of days, my vision was great, and there was no discomfort. I've been taking eye healing supplements and had a great doctor, so those may have affected my recovery outcome.I am so thankful to have the miracle of sight. It is difficult to describe, after wearing glasses my whole life, and losing my sense of taste and smell from Covid for many months to now having all of my senses working perfectly. I feel like a superhuman, even though I am still a regular human haha. I am better at billiards now, and it has only been a week since my surgery!Thank you Dr. Mann!

    I had my lasik surgery done here almost a decade ago by Dr. Paul Mann. Still seeing great! Brought my mom in and she was treated with kindness and respect. Cant recommend Mann Eye highly enough.

    Getting LASIK was one of my worst fears, but a lot of my friends recommended Mann Eye Institute. It was more pricy than Lasik plus, but I couldn't get ahold of anyone directly at Lasik plus after getting qualified, which made me not feel comfortable getting the procedure there. It is my eyes, after all.Luckily, Mann Eye was at the SXSW wellness expo with a drawing for 50% off, and I won!

    I cant speak highly enough about my experience here. I got a referral from my optometrist, and from my first visit I was treated so well. It was a relief that Alexandra could joke around a bit during my initial exams to ensure I was a good candidate. Chelsea made everything about the process and cost easy to understand, and got me all the info I needed to easily setup care credit for managing payments. Michael Mann performed my procedure and it was easy peasy. I wish I could remember the other support staff that were there helping throughout the procedure, I felt very comfortable and safe the entire time. And, after a good nap and regular sleep, the next day my vision was already 20/20 I cant believe I didnt go ahead and do this a decade ago. I hope many more people can have their vision restored by this wonderful team of professionals
