Doctor Wallace says: Jeanette had her treatment in September ’04. This profile was posted in August, ’05. We recommended PRK to Jeanette due to corneal thickness concerns. She did not have adequate thickness to support both creation of the LASIK flap and optical sculpting treatment for her rather high correction. PRK (also called LASEK, epi-LASIK, […]
Doctor Wallace says: Anetta and her husband Matt are both teachers, who live in San Diego. They were recommended to our office by Matt’s sister, who had laser treatment here several years ago. It is a pleasure and delight to see two people so obviously in love with each other and with their work. We […]
Doctor Wallace says: Jim came to us interested in vision correction options appropriate to his military career. While the current US Army policy allows corrective surgery by either PRK or LASIK, a combination of factors in Jim’s particular case suggested PRK might be a better option. We performed his care in January of ’05. Jim […]
Doctor Wallace says: Jessica had her laser treatment in May ’04. Being a nurse, she had very high expectations about the precision of the procedure, sterile technique, and all the little details that separate a very good surgeon from others. She wanted it *perfect*. Her treatment went smoothly. On her first day visit after surgery, […]
Doctor Wallace says: Jacques and I had a long discussion about his situation and his hopes. He had a very small prescription, to begin with, and I actually told him, “Some people are very happy to have as small a prescription after LASIK as what you have before”. But he wanted better clarity and was […]
Doctor Wallace says: Some people become concerned when I advise PRK in preference to LASIK. There is a widely-held public perception that for some reason, PRK “isn’t as good as” LASIK. I hope that Elda’s profile will help put those concerns to rest. I advised PRK for Elda in part because of her slightly thin […]
Doctor Wallace says: Monica is a very smart, energetic and enthusiastic woman who had checked out a ton of info about LASIK in general, and my office in particular, before coming in. She chose to have LASIK on December 30th. ’02. On the day after surgery, though the vision measured “20/25” on the chart, it […]
We provide dcare for Jose in early 2004. In late 2007 I received this note from his wife: Dear Dr. Wallace, I just wanted to say hello and “Thank You” for a wonderful job you did for my husband. We referred his sister in law, Nancy Martinez and she was also happy. I pass along […]
Doctor Wallace says: Pragna had LASIK originally in August ’03. Her left eye was spectacularly clear almost from the moment of surgery. By comparison, the right eye lagged a little in sharpness, so we performed enhancement care in January ’04. She is now superbly sharp and clear in both eyes, and is extremely happy. Pragna […]
Doctor Wallace says: I first saw Jeremy in June, 2000. Prior to seeking consultation with me, he had visited 5 other laser centers. Nobody at any of the other centers alerted him to the potential problems that can arise in treating eyes with large pupils. He was also rather put off by the high-pressure sales […]
