I had PRK performed at this location and I felt like I wasn't properly warned about the consequences of this surgery. The recovery took much longer than expected (6 days vs 2-3 days) and when I did recover, my vision was off so I had to get both eyes lasered again. Once I recovered a second time, my right eye had solid vision but my left eye was noticeably worse than my right, but it apparently is good enough to not be treated again. Also, ever since the first PRK attempt, I have had terrible dry eye in both eyes which was something that was never really communicated to me before the surgery. After going through this whole ordeal, I wish I never did PRK here as I would have better vision with just my glasses and I wouldn't have to deal with constant dry eye.

Overall a positive experience, but my vision is not great after surgery. I am currently -0.75 in both eyes, 5 months after getting LASIK in April 2023. I have to wear glasses to drive, which kind of defeats the purpose of getting surgery (so that I wouldn't have to wear glasses). But the staff and everyone at the site were professional and helpful. My vision is good enough for day-to-day activities, things are just blurry far away. Update/edit (I can't seem to reply to the business owner response with a new response): I did receive a call from InSight LASIK and they're offering to see me again for a follow-up and to evaluate if I'm eligible for a free re-do surgery. I'm not interested in getting surgery again, but they were responsive. I stand by my 4 star review for the above stated reasons, but they do seem to offer free re-do eye surgery up to 2 years after your initial surgery, if medically indicated.

I am a huge fan of Dr Carlson and Insight Lasik. From the very first appointment to surgery day (and now at my post op day 1 meeting), Dr Carlson was top notch. Her white glove service throughout the entire process was exemplary. I thought she handled every aspect and attention to detail with thorough care and knowledge. I trust her and think that she is one of the best in her field. InSight Lasik is lucky to have her.

Reply to owner: I was there in June 2021, so I feel like you're saying you don't have a record of me to discredit my review. I feel like this group has shady tactics to try to get you to get LASIK with them. I was told from 2 other places that my lens is too thin to safely do PRK, yet InSight didn't even mention that as a possibility. They seem more focused on making money than patient safety.

Imagine having your optometrist be on the leading edge, and then some, of the technological advances in healthy eye care management? Someone who is ahead of the curve with treatment options that most have never heard of? A person who volunteers for humanitarian trips around the world to help with eye care options for the needy? Well, wait until you meet Dr. Teresa Carlson! In Dr. Carlson, I found a compassionate, well-educated, friendly individual who just wants the very best for her patients. Comprehensive and thorough exams keep me coming back! I even got my husband to work with her. If you are looking for the very best in eye care, take a serious look at Dr. Carlson's website and do yourself a favor by making an appointment for your eye care needs today!
