Patient Stories

This was the most comfortable thing that I’ve ever gone through. I’m extremely happy with the results and annoying those around me by repeating- “I can read the clock”. Everyone here is very professional and nice. It definitely completes the atmosphere. My big test will be my next job when I don’t have to change my glasses constantly when I’m running in and out of various stores. I’m looking forward to it! Thank you everyone!

The procedure was simple. I’m very pleased with how the procedure was explained so thoroughly by the nurses and the video, and even the doctor. All my questions were answered to my satisfaction. The actual procedure took a few minutes for each eye ( It may even be shorter because when you are having a surgery a minute seems a lot longer than it actually is). I think the only pain or discomfort I felt was the instrument that kept my eyes open so that I won’t blink, and in the beginning I felt absolutely nothing. The laser felt like nothing at all and I’m up this morning seeing everything I was never able to see before. Overall it was a very easy, and convenient procedure.

I underwent the LASIK procedure two weeks ago. My experience was zero pain. Approximately four hours after the procedure I felt a slight burning sensation, but nothing like the pain when a contact lens is dislodged or a piece of grit enters the eye. The sensation lasted approximately half an hour, but caused no tearing. I just relaxed and it went away.

Approximately five hours after the procedure there was no sensation at all except I do remember opening my eyes and being able to see across the room. It was amazing! The next morning I experienced the greatest joy by being able to see the clock, read the labels of containers on my bathroom counter, and make out faces across the room. I achieved 20/25 in one eye and 20/40 in the other. I highly recommend the procedure and there is no finer doctor than Dr. Caster, and that also includes his very professional staff.

This procedure has been absolutely perfect. Everything I was told would happen did happen. The outcome is better than I would have expected! I’m not disappointed whatsoever. Your system for guiding people through this, from the initial consultation to the day after surgery, is exactly what makes this a comfortable experience. Thanks so much, and I will be sending others to you

I have worn glasses since I was six years old. I was very frightened coming to have my eye exam but the people here are so caring they made the decision to have surgery a very easy one. The day of the surgery I was taken care of so well that I wasn’t afraid at all! The next day my vision was 20/20! I was able to wear sunglasses for the first time in my life and it was great! I can’t thank all of you enough! After visiting many different doctors I knew this was the only place to come. I will recommend Dr. Caster to all of my friends. Thank you for changing my life!

The next day I was totally amazed. I started wearing corrective lenses over 30 years ago and to see without glasses or contacts when I woke up was an experience I won’t forget. Dr. Caster and his staff were very helpful in calming my initial concerns about having surgery on my eyes. I did a lot of research on the subject before I did it and Dr. Caster kept coming up as one of the best in the country and world. Also my own personal physician (who I trust immensely) referred him. I would recommend the procedure highly to anyone considering Dr. Caster. I believe the choice of the doctor is the most important variable in the decision.

I started wearing glasses when I was 8 years old. My vision was really BAD! I couldn’t see anything without my glasses. I had laser eye surgery in June if 1998, I was 19 years old. The surgery was easy and painless! It was over so quickly, I didn’t even have time to be nervous! Now, my vision is perfect. I will never forget the first time I bought a pair of sunglasses! Everyone in my family has had the surgery with Dr. Caster, and we are all thrilled with the results! Thank you so much!

It’s a great feeling not to use contact lenses to see. I feel free for the first time in years. The Caster Eye Center people are the greatest. Thank you.

WOW! This is great! I can see 20/20 the nest day after the surgery. The surgery was quick and painless. This has been so terrific! Thanks, Dr. Caster and thanks to your wonderful staff!
