    Seriously impressed. I was taken almost immediately after walking in, and the entire visit was…read moresmooth, efficient, and professional from start to finish. Every test was handled quickly and thoroughly, all my questions were answered, and nothing felt rushed or salesy. Pricing was fair and upfront, and I was in and out in about 20 minutes. This is how medical appointments should be done. Highly recommend Reingold Eye Center.

    I recently visited this office after being advised to follow up with an ophthalmologist due to a…read morescratched cornea. During my initial visit, LASIK was recommended, so I scheduled what I understood would be a consultation to see if I qualified. When I arrived, there seemed to be some confusion about the purpose of my appointment. I was told it was for a contact lens/eye exam, and even after explaining that I was there *specifically* for a LASIK consultation, I still ended up receiving a standard eye exam (I think? They didn't tell me anything lol, you'll see as I explain further). I may not fully understand how LASIK consultations are typically conducted, but there was very little communication throughout the visit about what was being done or why. One of the more frustrating parts of my experience was that I was not informed at any point--either before the appointment or during the visit--that my eyes would be dilated. I am legally blind and have been getting my eyes checked since I was a child (nearly 20 years) and I have not gotten my eyes dilated since I was a kid! When the drops were given, no one explained what they were or that they would dilate my eyes. I only realized this after my eyes became extremely sensitive to light and I got semi dizzy that I had to ask what was happening. There was also no guidance provided on what to expect afterward or how long the effects would last. Because of this, I was completely unprepared; I didn't have sunglasses and still needed to drive home. I was only given sunglasses after I specifically asked. So bizarre. I feel like regardless if this is common or not, this should be something communicated during the process... I also wouldn't have myself if I knew they were gonna dilate my eyes. After all of that, I still didn't receive much information about LASIK itself. I had to ask whether I even qualified, and the answer was given very casually without much explanation. If it weren't for me asking questions, I would've been given 0 information. Overall, the main issue was the lack of communication. I left feeling confused, unprepared, and not prioritized as a patient. While the office itself is clean and the staff wasn't unfriendly, clearer communication and better guidance throughout the process would have made a significant difference. Them sneaking in an eye exam on top of the "free" consultation, felt like they were just trying to make some money. For anyone considering this office, I would recommend coming prepared with questions and advocating for clear explanations during your visit. Otherwise, you're given nothing.

It started off a little meh for me as there is only street parking and as I am disabled, the walk was a little hard for me. BUT the service totally made the walk worthwhile. I did pay extra for the eye X-ray thingie but that was so much better than getting my eyes dilated. I'm diabetic as well and I have to get my eyes checked yearly to ensure that my eyes are ok. This was a much easier exam than getting the dilation. Much easier and much safer for me. Then I got taken to the back and the optometrist was great as well. She recommended some things and talked with me about some other issues as well. She also told me that the pores on my eye lids were getting gunky and to start doing warm eye compresses at night and it has been helping. Then the nicest very helpful lady... I wished I had gotten her name... Helped me to find new glasses. She was so helpful in bringing glasses to me and looking up colors for me and just being overall extremely helpful. Normally I'm used to being told, go and look and see what glasses you like... Instead here, she assisted me with everything which was very much appreciated. Overall, the parking sucked but I guess that's LA.... Lol BUT the service was amazing and I think I might've finally found my permanent optometrist!!

    My Background: I have been a slave to prescription glasses…read moreand contact lenses since 6th grade. After 27 years (I am 38 now), I decided to finally get iLASIK because of the technique's long track record and I can now actually afford the treatment. Facility Selection: I was referred to Dr. Berg's facility, along with a couple others, by my optometrist in 2025. I chose Dr. Berg's office based on pricing and accessibility. I received $900 off per eye ($3000/eye down to $2100/eye; the other places didn't offer) for the referral and he has several satellite offices that made it easier for me to drive to. These were the initial attractive factors. Care Quality: There's really no way for me to know what my experience could have been at the other laser correction facilities. However, I do not regret choosing Dr. Berg's office at all. At every point, from the personalized consultation to the actual procedure, I felt that I was in good hands. Both Dr. Berg and his staff are not only highly knowledgeable, but they were also very friendly and made my questions feel welcomed. When I read Dr. Berg's resume and mission statement, I felt assuaged to know that he is an experienced top-notch independent surgeon who used only state-of-the-art equipment and isn't running a LASIK mill. This meant that the chances of me needing an enhancement or touch-up are very low. I enjoyed interacting with Dr. Berg's staff as well. They felt like honest down-to-earth people that could relate to my pre-surgery anxieties. I appreciated the fact that they didn't try to push or sell me extra things. There is a Lifetime Commitment warranty that's optional. However, they didn't press me to buy it and I see that as a green flag. With how they measured my eyes and checked my candidacy twice, once during consultation and again right before the procedure, demonstrates a high level of professionalism, quality practice, and rigorous ethics to me. Facility Experience: I think that it's also worthwhile commenting on their offices. I went to the Arcadia one for the consultation and the Sherman Oaks office, where the actual procedure is done. Both were very clean and well-kept. The waiting, examination and operating rooms are very sterile and I felt comfortable being in them. Results: At the time of writing this, I am sitting at 3 days post-op and enjoying a glasses-free life with my vision being right as rain. As a matter of fact, I saw vision improvements immediately after my iLASIK procedure with Dr. Berg, and my visual acuity sharpened further as my eyes healed more. I am scheduled to see Dr. Berg directly for continual follow-up appointments to ensure that my eyes are fine. Closing Statement: For readers who see this review and are contemplating getting iLASIK, I genuinely recommend Berg-Feinfield Vision Correction. I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't scared during the actual procedure--I was terrified! But I honestly would've felt like that anywhere I went. All I can say is that Dr. Berg and his staff were excellent in providing vocal reassurance and guidance during the procedure, and that made all the difference for me emotionally. In the end, I was granted video footage of my actual iLASIK treatment and I can evidentially see that Dr. Berg is incredibly dexterous and skilled. I cannot argue with the awesome results and I hope that this review provides more visibility (pun intended) for the Berg-Feinfield group and clarification for prospective candidates!

    Choosing Dr. Berg was truly a life-changing decision. I was referred to him by a friend who is a…read morepilot, and he spoke very highly of Dr. Berg, his staff, and the personal attention he provides to his patients. From the beginning, I understood why. Dr. Berg's staff was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and detailed in explaining every part of the process. During the surgery, I was very nervous, especially since I am sensitive about anything involving my eyes. Dr. Berg took the time to explain each step with care, consideration, and precision, which helped me feel calm and confident throughout the procedure. Immediately after surgery, Dr. Berg carefully checked my eyes again, showing the same level of dedication and professionalism. Before the procedure, I had astigmatism and struggled to see clearly at night and at a distance. The very next day, I returned to my optometrist for another eye exam and passed with 20/20 vision. After taking another exam, my vision tested at 15/15. I was absolutely shocked. I have never had eyesight this good in my entire life, not even before I started wearing glasses at 21 years old. The entire experience was amazing. I truly feel like I have a brand-new set of eyes. I use reading glasses for computer work, but everything else is 15/15. I feel like I have laser vision, sharp as a hawk. My night vision is excellent! Blessings to Dr. Berg and his wonderful staff for their dedication and many years of professional service.. Rick Lavin

Dr. Lee and his team were so warm and welcoming, I felt so naturally at ease. Dr. Lee was so easy to talk to and had such a patient approach thoroughly explaining everything in the process as well as why each option would or would not work for me before making a recommendation. I proceeded with ICL and even during surgery, he was so kind and patient. The procedure itself was so quick and painless, and I felt completely normal as soon as I got up. No symptoms afterwards or pain, which were my concern. I literally felt as if nothing happened as soon as I got up from the procedure. My vision is amazing now, I just have to get used to the phantom urges to grab my glasses or "remove my contacts" when my eyes feel tired since being able to see + tired eyes used to mean I was wearing contacts. Absolutely zero complaints and have already recommended Dr. Lee to people only 3 days after my procedure.
