My annual visit to my eye doctor found a shadow on my retina. I went into have additional test performed. I have never been through a battery of test like I experienced here. They went from test to test without any issues. We started with a plan vision test, to numbing for dilation, pictures and additional test to the ultrasound. Before leaving I was given a full diagnostic of my problem with instructions for care. If you're ever in need of eye care, make sure to keep Retina Northwest in mind.

He got on the phone with the doctor at Retina Northwest and they literally fit me into their busy schedule. While may wait time at intervals was lengthy, every staff member in the Vancouver office was super kind. My doctor was Dr. Tlucek and he felt so down to earth and nice. He did a variety of tests of the eyes/retina allowing me moments to reset when the light in my eyes just could not be tolerated any longer. Once diagnosis was made he gave me my choices and explained procedure - I opted to get procedure done then and there because I figure we only have one set of eyes and it wasn't something that I wanted to wait around and see if things got worse. Procedure only took a minute or two - so fast. I was then scheduled for a follow up and my cataract doctor was getting faxed the results. I had a choice of offices to choose from for the follow up with Dr. Tlucek. I give the worth and atmosphere created by staff a two thumbs up.

All but about 15 minutes is spent in the waiting room. They do one thing then put you in the waiting room. Wait for 30 minutes or more, the do another thing and put you back in the waiting room. Then put you in a room and you sit and wait and wait and wait. They have zero regard for the amount of my time being wasted just sitting there. I saw two of the five doctors and they couldn't agree on treatment. I lost all confidence in them. I have since found Hillsboro Eye Clinic. Each appointment is less than an hour. The doctor I see is knowledgeable, the office staff is friendly and there aren't 10 to 15 people waiting around being shuffled back and forth from a waiting room. Everyone is seen promptly and not waiting around.

SMILE is awesome. Get it if you can. So, I got SMILE, my partner got LASIK... what's the…read moredifference? For Lasik, they need to cut a large flap into your eye... then the laser does the cutting/removal, etc. In SMILE, a tiny slit is cut (no flap), then the doctor does the cutting/removal instead of the laser. My recovery time was much longer; it took a couple months until my vision was perfect, whereas they recovered almost instantly... However, I almost never need eye drops... and they needed them for several months. The results are similar otherwise. How's my vision? 20/15... I could read a few of the 20/10 characters... but it took a bit of squinting. It feels weird to have functioning eyes. The process: You have some meetings, they check your eyes, and walk you through the procedures. If you're the nervous type, this may help you. This was maybe tmi for someone like me, since I prefer to trust the experts/doctors... that is, after doing hours of research and settling on SMILE and Dr. Malihi. However, tmi is better that no info, and many will find comfort in the "behind-the-scenes" tour. The actual surgery takes about 20 minutes... and it's uncomfortable, I mean it's your damn eyes... So, I just tried to relax and think about how this will all be over in no time- and it was. They do offer a chill pill of some sort, but I didn't take it... kinda wanted to feel it all... and it wasn't bad. You do feel a bit of scraping... because there is scraping. Again, worth it. They talk you through the whole thing... tell you when your vision is about to go cloudy, etc. There were people updating me on everything that was happening and there wasn't any mystery or reason to worry. The next day, my vision was kinda there... but after a few hours it got blurry... My partner had almost perfect vision after a day... but I was about 20/40 at best. I ended up working on tons of music, since staring a computer screen was doable but difficult. I traveled a couple weeks later, and my vision was still really blurry... SMILE does take longer to heal... but it's really worth it. After a couple of months, my vision is so good it's ridiculous. Just get it.

I got an answer to every one of my questions and didn't feel pressured at any point throughout the whole experience. I was a candidate for SMILE, LASIK, and PRK and was walked through the differences between the 3 and pros vs. cons. Ultimately, I decided to go with SMILE to correct my myopia (-4.50 and -5.0 with slight astigmatism) because I already had dry eyes and was concerned LASIK would make it worse. I was able to schedule the surgery for the following week, and the surgery itself was pretty quick and painless! My vision was blurry immediately after, but was 20/15 and 20/20 by the following day. Fantastic! This was, by far, the best medical experience I've ever had. I just wish I would've had Dr. Mahili do it sooner!
