    My wife is thinking about getting lasik surgery. Can anyone recommend a good place to consider. We don't know anyone that has had this done.
    And, what can we expect to pay.
    Thanks,
    J

    PM GrapeApe..... He had it done. I think it runs between 600-900 per eye. He only needed one eye done.

    I'll pm him, thanks.
    I think we met last summer. did you have a 21 deck and trade up to the 23?
    We hit up the main sandbar at Martinez (zoo island) on the non crowded weekends and go farther up on the crowded ones. We have little ones and there's a lot they shouldn't see.
    We are supposed to be at the river 4-21 and 4-22. Will you guys be there?

    My boss's wife had it done two weeks ago. She is now legally blind.

    If you're willing to drive to Temecula, my doctor Siems does it on Mondays at Dr. Utenheimer's (sp?) office. :rollside: My mom, neighbor and bro-in-law had it done within a month of mine. 1 year this month for me and I love it! He also just got another board certification from somewhere, read it in a magazine. Probably run around $4k give or take. There are a lot of people on here that can recommend someone. I'm sure you'll get more responses.

    Well, she went in for Lasik and now cannot see. That is all I really know. She had both eyes done at the same time and for some reason her eyes did not react well. I know she has gone back to the center some three times now.
    I can't really elaborate much more than that since it is somewhat of a touchy subject with my boss. I don't necessarily want to pry into his personal life.

    PM me. i have been in ophthalmology (design and development of medical devices) for 20 years. there are several outstanding refractive surgeons in S.D.
    depends on your efreactive error and what you are trying to accomplish with a surgical correction. different surgeons using different lasers get different results and some are better at acheiving certain outcomes...
    price can not figure into your surgical decision...

    I had mine done by Dr. Tooma. He has an office in Newport Beach and Ontario. I had it done in August and vision is 20/15. He is the guy that did Tiger Woods and has done a bunch of baseball players. He did my wife about a year and a half ago. She is 20/20.
