Just a quick question for people that have had LASIK done locally here in Austin, if you have had it done which doctor did it and how are the results? Looking for some recommendations

I had dr. Steven Dell 2 yrs ago. It felt a bit like a factory, but it was very professional and very well-organized, and I am very happy with the results -- not a single complaint. I had custom lasik for -5.5 vision plus astigmatism.

Dr. Shannon Wong at the Austin Eye Center is really good.

I went to LasikPlus and was very happy w/ the results. Don't remember the doctor's name though.

Same here, except my night vision still hasn't improved. (its worse now that it was with glasses) I keep calling, and they keep telling me to give it more time. It's been 8 months now, and its so bad I don't feel safe driving at night.

Yeah, that's not right. You should be completely healed and things should be normal by now...

Oh I've done some research, and talked to another Laser doctor. I know exactly what the problem is, but they are trying to put off doing a second surgery until I've had "proper time to heal". (they have a lifetime guarantee, so it would be free of cost to me - they aren't eager about those kind)

It's a little frustrating, but everything I've turned up says it is POSSIBLE this issue can take up to 8 months to correct itself. If it hasn't, then a second surgery is the only option.

Well good luck with that. I'm sure that's really frustrating!
