I had iLASIK surgery at NEEC in August of 2008, and could not have had a better experience! I am grateful to Dr. Goldstein and Dr. Stejna who were so thorough and attentive to my questions going into the procedure. I woke up the next day with 20/15 vision and still have the same vision today. I recommend LASIK to everyone that has contacts or glasses as a great way to return to normalcy. It was the best feeling when I renewed my driver's license the following July and passed the eye test without hesitation.

When I first visit the facility, Dr. Stejna was very nice and informative. She did thorough eye exam and inform me of all the problems. My second visit wasn't that great. The lady that took pictures of my eyes and did a second eye exam didn't seem that knowledgeable. She didn't know how to operate the machine to take the pictures and she didn't even know how to use the Phoropter. I was pretty sure that she was a student/intern. To be honest, I feel like the information and picture from the 2nd exam was inaccurate. During the 2nd visit, I met Dr. Wu. She was very nice and informative. She provide a background of the eye structure and how it works. She inform me of the possible complication and results. She answered all the questions I had. I felt very comfortable with her. The only bad thing for this facility is that they do no offer lifetime enhancement. NEEC only offer 1 year check up and enhancement with the cost of the procedure. If anything happens after 1 yr, they will charge you 50% of the normal fee. This made me hesitant of following through with my laser vision surgery. I felt that NEEC did not have the confident to back up their services. I expected more from NEEC. Other places that provide laser vision correction offer lifetime enhancement as part of their package.

my primary motivation for choosing neec is that i hate the typical cozy arrangement biz relationship between an optometrist and the retail eyeglass business...if you see the doctor you get massive pressure to buy your glasses then and there, despite their prices or selection.<br><br>that's not a problem here, as the retail eyewear operation is three floors away.<br><br>FYI: this is a big and impersonal operation, more like a visit to a hospital outpatient ward than an eye doctors. <br><br>yet my exam was efficient, thorough, and professional, i.e., three stars.

My husband got lasik here last month and we couldn't recommend it enough. He went on and on about how great they were in the consult appointment, the following appointment, and then the surgery. <br><br>I showed up the day of the surgery to pick him up and the nurses brought me in a separate room before he was ready to go to fill me in on how he did and to warn me exactly how drugged up he was so I wouldn't be too shocked at how loopy he was. They were all great nurses and you could tell that they really cared about their patients. <br><br>A week after the surgery, in the follow up appointment, my husband tested 20/15 vision after his initial test of 20/200 (something like that). He's more than thrilled with the results and this place is as good as it gets. <br><br>Sidenote: 1st responders get 40% off (he's a firefighter so it wasn't as expensive as it should've been because yeah.. lasik is definitely expensive).
