Laser Vision Correction

Hi Ladies,

I am considering having laser eye surgery this summer and do not know where to begin to find a good doctor. Please let me know of any good or bad experiences you have had. I cannot take another year in contacts! I am in the Frisco area, but will travel for the right doctor.

What can I do next?

I went to Dr. Boothe, so did my husband, and it was great!
Also, I saw the other post...Dr. Boothe was VERY nice to me...you have to get to know him a little, but he was great to me, very funny sense of humor, and I liked him very much.

Good Luck!

Do NOT go to Dr. Carter. My husband and I went to him and we had a very bad experience. Our eyes are fine and we are glad that we did it but he runs his office like a factory and he is not personable whatsoever. In fact my husband had a very bad reaction to the numbing drops they used (since he is allergic to lanacane)and Dr. Carter never explained what they would be using and how the procedure would be performed.

I've heard Dr. Whitman is good and my friend went to see Dr. Tylock.

Good Luck! You will love it!

I had a GREAT experience (and my vision is PERFECT) with Lasik Plus Vision Center 2108 Dallas Pkwy # 206, Plano, TX‎ - ###-###-####‎. The doctors and staff are amazing and I felt really comfortable, even during a somewhat scary (who wouldn't feel nervous having their eyes worked on?) event. Walked out of there with uncomfortable eyes (it feels like someone kicked sand in your eyes); woke up the next day with PERFECT vision!!

I used Dr. Boothe in Plano.. He did my surgery in Jan and I couldn't be happier.. Good luck!! You'll love not wearing contacts!!

Tylock or Boothe - I went to Boothe - he did a great job, but he's not a very nice man. My cousin went to Tylock - he also did a great job, and is super nice.

My husband had his done at the Carter Eye Center. He had a great experience!

Dr. Jeffrey Whitman of Key-Whitman -- he is fabulous!!!! I had my eyes done in 1995 and it was the BEST thing I have ever done for myself!

My husband went to Dr. Tylock, and we loved him. He does the intralase, which is the blade-free surgery. My husband now has better than 20/20 vision, and has had no problems at all. I would definitely recommend him. Hopefully I'll be getting it done soon too. Good luck!
