What an amazing experience! I don’t know why I waited so long to do this! Dr. Castor and the team gave me the opportunity to SEE without my glasses. I wanted to give a shoutout to CRYSTAL, for encouraging me to take this amazing step to better my life. From the moment that I walked into the office Crystal made me feel comfortable, as she greeted me with a warm smile. I was feeling excited and full of emotions, that were soothed by her personality and her assurance that I was going to be okay. The office is elegant, but with an essence of warmth and coziness. Laura, made me feel right at home, she walked me through the financial process and reassured me I was in great hands. Shoutout to Laura, she is amazing!!!Alicia, made me feel safe as she walked me through the process, she allowed me to see all the amazing technology and tools being used, for the procedure. I had so many questions that were all answered, there is plenty of time and opportunity to ask and feel comfortable and assured. It’s amazing how they triple check that everything is correct and really make you feel safe. The team does an amazing job walking you through the process and priming you until the time of the procedure. Roman does an amazing job taking care of all the testing before the procedure. Lastly, DR. CASTOR!!!!!!! The man of the hour! Such an professional! He came in and answered my final questions and made me feel safe. The procedure was so fast, and amazing. I can’t believe that I wired this long! The technology they use is so modern that it’s amazing what they are able to do here, they truly change peoples lives! To think that I’m less than 24hrs I was going to have 20/20 vision is truly amazing.Forever grateful with the team. I look forward to enjoying my life without glasses!With lots of love, respect and gratitude,Jasmin Franco

"My prescription was -10 with my astigmatism included. I love it! It's a different world!"

- Chimdi Ihezie

Feel safe knowing you're in good hands.

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!"
