I really wanted LASIK! Especially since I have been wearing glasses since Kindergarten and contacts since 8th grade, 20 years! Assuming automatically I would be a candidate because I don’t have a astigmatism or other issues, last November finally got the courage to make an appointment and schedule surgery.
The front desk was very gracious considering I was guilty of being a couple minutes late. Next they took me back to measure my eyes, which took less than 10 minutes. Sat down and looked through some tiny holes, didn't even know they were measuring them and the last one just looked at a picture on the other end. Watched a quick video about the actual procedure one of the doctors narrated then saw Dr. Kang.
He explained that I wasn't a candidate for LASIK due to the degree of my prescription since it would only be able to reduce not eliminate the need for glasses/contacts. He offered other solutions and in no way made me feel pressured or rushed to make a decision to have any procedure. Very patient! Made me feel extremely comfortable and wish I had gone in sooner and maybe they could have done the procedure before my eyes got to bad or set money aside in an HSA that I can’t use. I would highly recommend the office and Dr. Kang he is extremely trustworthy!
Also, it was so simply to put money into my HSA or even pay myself back, which my company's HR explained and I have now done for other medical expenses. I feel silly and the money was back in my account within 24 hours!!
Wish I knew of EDOW years ago!!!
