Hi Lynda,
Did you get your Lasik done at Newmans in Sacramento yet? If so, would you recommend him? Thanks

I am scheduled a Newman LASIK in Sacramento this month. Can anyone who’s been there tell me about the prescription eye drops you need following the surgery? What are they and about how much do they run? Thanks!

Hi Shanna:

I know you wrote on this forum quite awhile ago, but how did your procedure with Dr. Karp go? I am scheduled a few days from now with him. Please give me some feedback as I am very nervous! Thanks!

I commented above but wanted to make sure you got a reply as well. I am super happy with my decision of going to Dr. Newman. He is a great Dr. and I loved the staff and facility. Very clean and professional. I went with wavefront and I think it ended up being around $2800 for both eyes. Right now they will give you $100 off if you mention you hard about them on 94.7. I was completely satisfied and happy I didn’t pay double the price!

Hi there. I went to Newman Lasik earlier this month and am really happy. I shopped around quite a bit and everywhere else I felt like I was being sold a used car (i.e. if you do it today I’ll give you a special price . . .) But as soon as I walked into Newmans it was clean, professional, and I loved the staff, and especially Dr. Newman. His prices are reasonalbe too, cheaper than the used car places! I ended up opting for the wavefront with one year protection. I Think it ended up being around $2800. But non wavefront you can get for $899 an eye I think, I don’t have the info anymore. But their prices are very upfront, no sliding scale depending on your prescription which I think is cool. If you mention you heard about them on radio 94.7 they will give you $100 off.

lasikplus = the name of the company Lasik Plus — it does not describe a type of surgery… lasikplus is a proprietary name for the Company. It does not mean” Intralase”. You either have your lasik surgery with a microkeratome blade making the flap in the epithelial tissue over the cornea, or the laser making the flap- which is called Intralase. PRK is another method of correction, which prepares the cornea in yet another way for the laser.
Not everyone has drier eyes after surgery. Talk to the examining MD about your dry eye issues BEFORE surgery. The FDA states that 10% of persons having lasik surgery will need an enhancement. Well, then I guess that means 90% do not! I suggest you google” FDA, lasik” and find their websites for information.

Hey Malinda,

Why G&R over Newman? I am scheduled for the procedure with Newman later this month and didn’t even go to G&R because they were double the price, making it more than I can even put away through my FSA plan…

Just curious on your opionon of the one over the other…

Thanks!

What do you know about Lasik Plus and TLC–both are in my area and the TLC’s price is twice that of LasikPlus. Any reason for this that you know of?

also, what do you about monovison lasik correction–have you heard of good or bad results with this generally ?
