The LASIK Vision Institute

"I want to start by saying Dr. Brewer and his surgical team are amazing and the procedure went well. However, there are some things this clinic and company could do better. 1. Prior to the appointment, it took three phone calls for someone to be able to tell me when my follow-up would be. I had the procedure in Austin, where my family lives, and I wasn't planning to stick around for weeks waiting for a follow-up. Granted, this was during the holidays but this is not their first week in business and should be communicated. 2. The office moved between when I made the appointment and when I had the procedure. No one specifically mentioned this when calling to confirm my appointment. It seems this would have been pretty important information to verify. I had a location in one email for the evaluation and an email with another location for the procedure. This caused us to drive 20 miles out of our way on the day of the procedure, which wasn't a great start to the relationship. 3. The video they have you watch before the procedure made it seem like the next day you would be back to normal. This is not true. I had swelling and pain in my face for days afterward. This was never mentioned as a possibility and caused me a lot of concern. 4. The clinic advises you to "go home and sleep" and gives you Tylenol PM before the procedure. This was weird and did nothing to stop the horrible burning I had in my eyes for hours afterward. I am sure they do not want to bother with pain management, but this was pretty rough, honestly. Again, everyone at the clinic was wonderful and the procedure went well. There are just things that could and should be managed better for the patients' sake."

"Dr Brewer and his staff are very friendly, and polite. They explained everything to me and they wanted to be certain I understood every aspect along the way. I’m in office now for my visit after the surgery and they’re still as nice and as professional as the day of my first visit. Less than 18 hours after my surgery, my vision is ALREADY at 20//5 for both near and far distances. I highly recommend"

"Dr. January and his team were absolutely amazing to work!! They made the process so easy and I couldn’t be any happier with my new vision. Choosing Lasik Vision Institute in Austin for my lasik surgery was the best decision! I highly recommend this team for anyone considering lasik!"

"The experience was fast and simple, from the initial consultation to surgery. Dr. Brewer and the entire staff were very kind and responsive. I was very nervous the day of surgery but Dr. Brewer and his team did a great job walking me through the process and helping me keep calm during. Happy I chose the LASIK Vision Institute."

"Had a great experience here! 10/10 Lovely staff, everyone was so friendly. Scheduling was easy. Everyone made me feel at ease. Dr. Brewer did a wonderful job. He talked me through the entire procedure and I was done in 10 minutes. Happy I chose LIV!"
