TLC Laser Eye Centers

Run away from this place as fast as you can! They don't care about you as a patient. It is simply a Lasik mill. My vision was evaluated my an optometrist (not an MD) before the procedure. I carefully explained to him that I wanted "mono vision" Lasik because I'd been wearing mono vision contact lenses for years. Mono vision allows a middle aged person to see distance but not have the need for reading glasses. I told him that I wanted my dominant eye corrected to 20/20 and my nondominant eye only "slightly corrected." He kept saying, "So we are going to slightly under correct your left eye. I said, "NO, you are going to slightly correct it." I had the procedure. To my shock and horror, both eyes were corrected to 20/20. The optometrist was truly arrogant. When I confronted him about the error, he showed me where he had written "modified mono" in 3 different places. My reply was, "You wrote that; it is not was I requested." He continued, "See, it says modified mono." Again, I stated that was not my request. Finally, after I got really angry, the arrogant optometrist (remember, not an MD) got frustrated and said, "If I had done what you had asked you would have been dizzy and vomiting all the time." Not true. I'd been wearing contacts with this type of correction for years. They don't listen to you here. They don't care about you, only about your $$$. Although the procedure is done my a medical doctor, the initial evaluation is done by an optometrist. As a health care professional myself, I will say this about optometrists: If they had any brains they would have gone to medical school. This particular guy was arrogant, aside from being an idiot. TLC sucks.
