Re: Have you had Lasik? - feedback/reco's - Updated: Dr. Kelly (Garden City)

I went to Dr. Kelly and he was awesome. Best money I every spent.

I wanted to add that...

it was not painful at all;
they made me feel so comfy;
my insurance didn't cover it, but they worked out a payment plan with me, which worked out well. I got it done Aug, 08 and just paid it off a few months ago. I also only had one eye done...i know weird, but my right eye was perfect and didn't need it. I had horrible vision in my left eye and always felt off because of it..now they're same and it's perfect. One thing that was weird, was that for a year, I had trouble seeing things close up (I was nearsighted) and the dr. told me that was totally normal. Now, it's fine with no problems.
