Patient Reviews
Sep 01, 2023
I had Lasik surgery with Dr. Kumar at Denver Eye Surgeons and from start to finish the experience has been nothing short of spectacular. His techs were knowledgeable and kind. Dr. Kumar explained the procedure, the alternatives, the risks, the expected outcome based on my eyes, and the expected recovery, so I felt very informed making the decision. The surgery was quick, pain free, smooth, and I felt like I was in great hands the whole way through. I could see 20/15 already later that same day and have had no complications! Dr. Kumar is a very careful and conservative surgeon and if I had any more eyes I'd let him operate on them too!
