Kelly DeJaeger (Royal Oak, MI)

Background.

I was fully dependant on contacts and glasses, but when I tried to have LASIK done, I was told that I was not a candidate.

The Procedure

I had both eyes done the same day in 2007. I noticed an immediate improvement in my vision!

Results

It is just great to wake up in the morning and SEE!

Lydia Stovall (Macomb, MI)

Background.

I don't remember a time when I did not have either glasses or contact lenses on. I love camping, so contacts didn't work so well for me!

The Procedure

When I found out I was a candidate, I was all for it. We did both eyes and my vision was great right away.

Results

Having the ICL surgery done was the best thing I have ever done for myself. I am SO happy!!

Don Tanner (West Bloomfield, MI)

Background.

By the time I was in nursery school I was starting to squint...by the time I was in 6th grade my glasses were very thick. Eventually, I was -15 in one eye and -12 in the other.

The Procedure

I heard that Dr. Goldstein was one of the first to perform this surgery in Michigan, and I contacted him after I found out that I could not have LASIK. I did my eyes one week apart.

Results

It has really been a miracle, and I just want to thank Dr. Goldstein and his staff for making it possible

Mario Getaw (Shelby Township, MI)

Background

I was too nearsighted for LASIK surgery, but needed freedom from glasses for my work.

The Procedure

I had ICL on both eyes, done the same day. I went shopping at Costco right after surgery.

Results

I have 'High Def' vision, better than 20/20 in both eyes, and can now pursue my dream of a career in law enforcement.

Robin Piontek(Shelby Township, MI)

Background

I was too nearsighted for LASIK surgery, and became unable to wear contact lenses. I had to have Implantable Contact Lens surgery instead.

The Procedure

I had ICL on both eyes. It didn't hurt at all, and I was able to see really well right away!

Results

I went from legally blind, to better than 20/20 in both eyes!

Preoperative prescription was about -13 in each eye. Patients with this prescription cannot see past the tip of their nose without glasses..

Background

I am a Tennis Pro, and could not function well playing tennis, especially with my contact lenses drying out in the wind and sun.

The Procedure

I had LASIK on both eyes, both done the same day. I could see really well, almost immediately!

Results

My new vision helped me win the Womens Tennis Open in Ann Arbor in 2008!

Randi Szilagyi (Chicago, Illinois)

Background

My husband and I are both very active, and we bike and run together quite a bit. It was never easy dealing with contact lenses drying out while we were training, and glasses just don’t work in those situations.

The Procedure

I had LASIK on both eyes, both done the same day. It was incredibly easy, and I could not believe how quickly and smoothly the whole thing was!

Results

I have perfect vision in both eyes!! It is awesome!!

Philip Preisel (Shelby Township)

Background

I am a very active person, and I especially wanted to be able to hunt without glasses. I was less concerned with the need for reading glasses.

The Procedure

I decided to have both eyes completely corrected for distance, because I wanted the best distance vision without glasses. I wasn’t worried about wearing readers after.

Results

I was in the woods hunting the weekend after surgery! It was amazing! My vision was very clear. The best part was that I didn’t have to worry about seeing my target….and my previous problems with glasses fogging up was gone!!

Bill Flagg (Boulder, Colorado)

Background

I am an avid skier and hiker, I felt that LASIK would free me to pursue these activities without the hindrance of glasses or contact lenses. I was unable to drive without glasses or contacts before surgery, let alone pursue my other activities.

The Procedure

Dr. Goldstein and his staff were professional and provided the best care available. I had complete confidence in Dr. Goldstein's skills from the very beginning all the way through surgery and my last postop visit.

Results

My surgery was in 1999, and I am still seeing better than 20/20 in both eyes!! I was able to drive to Dr. Goldstein’s office by the next morning, and had no problems reading the entire eye chart.
