You're in and out with a pain-free 5 minute procedure. The laser portion is only 30 seconds per eye! So easy. No needles, no pain! Stand up, see clearer than before, and go home. Literally seeing the advantage of working with the best Lasik surgeon in Los Angeles.
Step Three
Patients typically have an overnight recovery and are back to most normal activities the very next day. Except you can now see with your own eyes and better than you have for many, many years!
Dr. Caster had his own vision corrected through LASIK in 1996, and he's enjoyed wonderful eyesight ever since. Part of what makes him the best Lasik surgeon is his personal experience and understanding of how it can change patient lives.
"The next day my vision was amazingly clear. I hadn't seen this clear since I was a kid. And I didn't even have on any glasses or contact lenses — these were my own eyes seeing. It was hard to wrap my mind around what an amazing thing had just happened to me."
He's since performed vision correction on his son, son-in-law, two brothers, and many other members of his extended family.
"Since I get to perform this miracle daily, I do not forget my own experience and my own pleasure with the LASIK experience. I could not be happier!"
