"The testing of my eyes was done carefully with efficiency and cheerfulness by a tech. Although we had a brief wait in a comfortable, clean environment, this office pre-surgical visit went very smoothly. There was easy access to this facility from our home in Midland, GA. "

"I do not think I was given anesthesia. I never felt any change from when it was supposedly given and I vividly recall the details of surgery. It was uncomfortable at a minimum."

"Life Changing Procedure! Dr. Hays and his staff are AWESOME!"
  • April 3, 2021
"It's too early to have much beyond a very preliminary response. That said, my vision is already quite sharp at mid and distant range. Close up it is not as good which is disappointing for a multi focal lens, but we'll see how it progresses and if there is improvement after the second eye surgery. My distance vision is better than it has been in years, and that was my primary concern. I am very pleased with that result."
