It's officially been a month and a half since I had LASIK done and so far, my only regret is that I…read moredidn't get it done sooner. If you've been in Charleston for any length of time you've probably heard of Kerry Solomon. His name is always the one that pops up when mentioning LASIK and from the moment I made the decision that I wanted to get this done, I knew he'd be the one I'd go to. Taking in all the good with the bad, I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone considering LASIK to go ahead and get it done, but I was even surprised at how much goes into this whole process. I'd say the actual surgery was one of the easiest parts of the whole experience. There is a lot of prep and post-op aspects with getting LASIK and Dr. Solomon's office did a very good job of clearly explaining all that goes into this procedure. I won't go into everything involved but just know for a good month, your world will consist of lots of round the clock eye drops, no makeup for a big duration (this may have been the hardest part for me), and wearing my glasses a lot more than I'm used to. I'd say if you're considering getting LASIK, these things should be taken into consideration (especially for us girls who wear makeup) to plan around. I ended up getting my surgery done in August because they were offering a huge discount during that time period ($800 off each eye!). The actual surgery wasn't bad at all. Definitely nerve-wracking but I can't imagine anyone being comfortable when you think of what is actually happening to your eyes. But the whole staff is so great at putting your mind to ease. And the good news is that the surgery goes by really fast! You'll be in the room less than 10 minutes and the actual procedure is about 2 minutes per eye. Then you go home and take a 4-6 hour nap and you wake up to perfect (or near perfect) vision! Truth be told, there have been some not so great aspects I've had to deal with like severe dry eyes and night glare, but these are all normal effects of the procedure and of course nothing that reflects badly on Dr. Solomon. I'm told to give it a solid 3 months to let your eyes heal completely, so that's what I'm going to do. But even taking these into consideration, I'd do it all over again. I still catch myself heading to the bathroom to take out/put in my contacts and then I remember I don't have to anymore. Best feeling!

They were able to offer me an appointment sooner than others I had called because of a cancellation. They spent 90 minutes with me, explaining every option, and were very helpful with frame suggestions and alternative solutions to explore with contact lenses that may better suit my needs. They have a very thorough understanding of the the brands available and answered my questions that had often been vaguely answered in the past at other offices. They also presented several choices for my high power lenses, and the prices, very clearly and let me decide, without any pressure at all, if I wanted to upgrade to the highest cost options or settle on a lower cost option that would still accomplish my goals for replacing my older glasses. I appreciated their honesty and we agreed on a lower cost option. I would highly recommend Premier Eye Care and trust that my followup visit(s) for contacts will go as smoothly as my first visit.

I chose new frames and hi end lenses due to having access to VSP (which is why I chose this Optometrist). I received the glasses and have been in for adjustments at least 8-10 times in the month or so I have had them. Yesterday I asked about an exchange, I got a no sorry 'all sales final' response. Frankly I was shocked, annoyed and angry, and I still am. How is anyone to know that the frames are not going to be a good fit - unless an employee says something? Do they think we go out of our way find a poor fit? So, I guess now I have to go in every few days to get the frame adjusted. I was told, we can't send them back to the mfr, we can't sell them so you have to keep them. In other words they do NOT stand behind their own products, and they have your $$ and you are stuck with poor fitting frames. So, future buyers, be 1000000% sure your frames are a good fit or else you will be SOL, just like me. I cannot at this stage recommend them, unless they step up and fix this bad situation.
