Manhattan Lasik Center

04/14/2008 Posted by michaelcas4

I found out about Manhattan Lasik Center through my friend at work who had his eyes done by Dr. Niksarli several months ago. He was thrilled with his results, not to mention the care and service he received there. So, I decided to follow his advice and contact Dr. Niksarli’s office for an initial consultation to see if I qualified. On the day of my eye exam, I must have asked a thousand questions and all of the staff was friendly, knowledgeable and kind. As I also found out, Dr. Niksarli is a surgeon as well as an engineer by training, so he knows the laser technology inside out. He seems to have the most up to date equipment in his office, (at least I have ever seen). My eye prescription was obtained, and my vision with that prescription displayed to me automatically, without asking me a single question. ( By the way that’s the part I hate most with all eye exams. The choices appear to be so close, that I worry I will give the wrong answer.) My vision with that in front of my eyes was crystal clear. When I asked him if I was going to see like that after my LASIK surgery, his answer was “most likely yes!” Well he was not kidding. Next morning after my surgery I indeed saw as well as that, if not better. When I came in for my first day check-up, I read below the 20/20 line without hesitation. In all my years of wearing eyeglasses I was never tested so thoroughly and accurately for my glasses. The day of my surgery I was given detailed instructions on how to take care of my eyes, what to do, and what not to do. I was also given Dr. Niksarli’s personal cell phone number to contact him in case of questions or concerns. That’s what I call dedication and caring. I will recommend this facility to all my friends and family, so that they can also benefit from this great technology and his unique skills

Pros: sharp vision, affordable, great staff

Cons: N/A

My experience at the laser center was an excellent one. My vision was corrected and it's a fabulous feeling not to need glasses or contacts again. I can see now even better than I did with my glasses or contacts. I don't have to put up with the constant irritation in my eyes from the contact lenses. In the past I was told that because of my astigmatism I should forget about Lasik surgery. My astigmatism was corrected at the same time as my nearsightedness thanks to Dr. Niksarli's skilled hands and great technology. Many of my friends asked me about where I had my surgery done and I have recommended them all Manhattan Lasik Center. I qualified for the no-interest financing plan, which made the whole thing possible for me. I was also very nervous about the whole process before I went there for my initial consultation. Everyone there was so nice and professional, I felt very much at ease and comfortable at the center. All my questions were answered and all my worries were addressed. I am so happy that I was able to build to courage to take the first step and then follow through with the surgery. the surgery itself was painless and quick. The recovery was painfree as well. By the evening time I was able to watch TV and have dinner comfortably as if nothing had happened. The next morning when I returned for my first check-up I found out that I was already seeing 20/20 without any glasses. My vision kept getting better for the next several days. I wish i had it done sooner. Dr. Niksarli you were very reassuring and calming. Thank you to everyone at Manhattan Lasik Center for giving me the gift of sight. I will recommend you guys to everyone.

Pros: No more glasses or contacts
