Reviews

"I have worn contact lenses or backup glasses for twenty nine years. My vision was poor enough that sleeping was the only activity I could do without my contact lenses in. After a friend of mine had laser correction surgery done, I wondered if I would be a candidate for the procedure. I planned a two week overseas vacation for October of 2011. How wonderful it would be to go on vacation and not have the burden of contact lenses! The Erdey Searcy Eye Group is well respected by the primary care physicians I work for, so I made an appointment for a consultation. After an extensive evaluation, Dr. Erdey recommended implantable contact lenses as the best option for me. He and his staff carefully explained all the benefits and risks associated with the procedure. I liked the idea that the lenses would provide me with the highest quality vision and were completely reversible. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Erdey’s expertise with the procedure. The staff was competent and professional from start to finish. I had my eyes done a week apart. The surgery was performed each time in under thirty minutes. My eyes felt slightly “gritty” for a few hours after the surgery, but there was no pain involved. By the second day, they felt completely normal. My vision is now perfect! Everything seems clearer and brighter, almost as though I see in high definition. When I wake up in the morning, I am able to see the time on my alarm clock! My only regret is that I did not do this year’s ago. I would recommend this procedure and Dr. Erdey without hesitation."

"I have been a diabetic for about 30 years and had developed cataracts. The Crystalens has shown me the true meaning of seeing more clearly and sharpness in my new vision. Dr. Searcy has always been very attentive with my eye care and follow up visits. The professionalism and knowledge shown by the entire staff is truly exceptional and I wish to thank everyone for their personal attention to my needs. I would highly recommend the Erdey Searcy Eye Group to anyone seeking vision care."

"I have been a patient of Dr. Searcy since 1998 referred by my Primary Care Physician. Dr. Searcy has also performed cataract removal on both my eyes restoring my vision. Amazing! That was nearly two years ago. I only need glasses to read now. The eye care I have received is outstanding and excellent. I give the Erdy/Searcy Eye Group my highest recommendation."
