The extra skin on my eyelids hung over my lashes so badly my eyes looked practically closed all the time. After eyelid surgery, I no longer look half asleep, I see better and my side vision has improved. I tell people interested in eyelid surgery, “Don’t delay. It’s quick, painless and beneficial.* You’ll be glad you made the decision.”

Having Laser Vision Correction is “one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I see everything clearer now. No fuzzy numbers on the clock. No more double vision while trying to read.” No more missing a turn or exit because I missed the road sign.* “If you have the opportunity to have Laser Vision Correction, don’t hesitate to have it done!”

- Rodney Baker, Heath Springs, SC

My vision had deteriorated to the point where I couldn’t do many of the things that brought joy into my life – like helping my granddaughters with piano lessons. Cataract surgery with the ReSTOR lens has made life fun again! I would tell anyone interested in cataract surgery to “Go for it… you are in good hands, and you will have NO regrets!”*

I’m a truck driver. Before eyelid surgery, my eyelids drooped over my eyes so badly they blocked my upper and side vision. I don’t think I could have passed the test to keep my Commercial Driver License. I now feel safe to drive again.* If you’re considering eyelid surgery, do it! You won’t regret it!”

- Tommy Mackey, Lancaster, SC

Before cataract surgery I had difficulty driving at night. I’m glad I had cataract surgery with the Toric Lens. “Now I can read road signs and don’t fear driving to unfamiliar places. Cataract surgery is not something to dread, rather, it is something to look forward to!”*

“Our family began going to The  Eye & Laser Center when we moved to Lancaster in 1994. After moving to Charlotte in 2002, we have continued to drive to Lancaster in order to experience the personal level of service to which we have become accustomed.” When someone in our family needs new glasses we don’t go to a chain store that advertises ‘buy one pair, get one pair free’. We go to The Eye & Laser Center because we know we will receive the most skilled care and the best quality product.

Before laser vision correction, my glasses were a real hindrance during a surgical procedure – they kept slipping down my nose. “I no longer have to worry about my glasses getting in the way.* I would tell anyone considering laser vision correction to come to one of The Eye & Laser Center surgeons. They will answer your questions honestly and thoroughly and tell you whether you are a good candidate.”

Before eyelid surgery “I felt like I was always looking through a tunnel.” I could actually see my eyelids hanging down on my lashes and had to open my eyes wide or hold them open with my fingers to see better. Now, “I can see better, and there are no shadows over my eyes.*” I tell anyone interested in eyelid surgery – “Don’t wait!  Get rid of the shadows!”

- Jack Hammond, Lancaster, SC

Before the procedure, I couldn’t do anything without my contacts. “Now I can do anything I want without worrying about my vision!”*  I teach swimming. “Now I never have to lose a contact lens in the water again!”  I’d tell anyone considering laser vision correction, “Do it today if you can!  I’m so thankful I had it done!”

I had worn glasses for over 30 years. My prescription was very strong which meant I was extremely limited in the types of frames I could select.  I couldn’t wear the fashionable frames, and my lenses were very expensive. The ReSTOR lens was perfect for me!  “I am now free of wearing glasses for both close-up and distant vision.”*
