Reviews for Astigmatism Services Near Encino, CA

The professionalism and efficiency of the staff was very impressive as always. Dr Elkins clearly explained my options for cataract surgery with an astigmatism and patiently answered all my questions. Thank you! More

Very polite and responsive stuff. Professional. Everyone is alert, no waits, no-nonsense. This was refreshing for an office that large ( they have several doctors). I was seen by Dr. Karlin, who was very sociable, energetic, and receptive. Responded to every concern I had, didn't sell me anything. They ran full tests on my eyes to make sure I don't have any hidden issues. I have some astigmatism which I rather not wear glasses for, so he just told me I didn't have to for now, if I feel comfortable without. More

First Time it was terrific and they took time to try to find lenses I could wear with astigmatism. Was there two hours but understandable More

I believe Dr Elkins should be known as Saint Elkins. I was very near sighted with bad astigmatism. I went to Dr Elkins for evaluation of possible LASIK as I was tired of wearing contacts that constantly shifted in my eyes (due to my astigmatism), and I couldn't tolerate wearing my very thick glasses for any extended period of time. I went to UCLA and was offered a complicated treatment option that was going to be about $12k. I declined and gave up my search. I was then told about Dr Elkins. After my initial evaluation (where he incidentally found a problem with my retina that was quickly corrected by one of his excellent colleagues- but that's another story for another day), he stated that my case was complicated, but if I was set on LASIK he felt comfortable to proceed (though he did say there was a chance I would need another procedure for further correction). I agreed. One of the best decisions of my life. Prior to LASIK my best corrected vision was 20/60 in one eye and 20/40 in my other eye. After LASIK, my vision is now 20/20. No more dry eyes from contact lens use. No more thick glasses. And that is why Dr Elkins has been elevated to Sainthood (the miracle performing part, if my long winded post wasn't clear enough).

I found Dr. Elkins on Yelp and he had such great reviews that I just had to get a consultation for lasik surgery. Once I met him I felt very comfortable with him performing my surgery. I am 21 and he made sure to let me know that if my vision hadn’t  stopped changing then he wouldn’t perform he surgery. That let me know that he was a great doctor and wouldn’t just perform the surgery to anyone that came in.  I got my surgery in February and I am so happy with the results! Dr. Elkins and his team did a great job and made me feel comfortable the entire time. I had very bad astigmatisms and now they are completely gone. I would recommend anyone thinking about lasik to go see Dr. Elkins! More

By far the best experience I have had with a surgery.Dr Elkins has golden hands!I had cataract surgery in both eyes, with toric lenses placed to correct both vision and astigmatism. Immediately after the surgery, which was quick and painless, my vision had already improved dramatically. By the next day I was 20/20.I cannot say enough about how wonderful Dr. Elkins is. Thank you.

14 years ago, I had a successful LASIK procedure performed by Dr. Zeegan. No more hard contact lenses (sever astigmatism) and I enjoyed perfect vision. This year my vision declined and Dr. Zeegan found that I had developed cataracts in both eyes. These post-LASIK astigmatic eyes again are enjoying perfect vision after Dr. Zeegan's pain-free, hassle-free cataract surgeries. Thank you! More

I had two cataract lens replacements with cylindrical correction (astigmatism), about 9 months apart. Fantastic service and results, highly professional for office consultations and pre and post surgical visits. Convenient full optometrist service in waiting room. Charming surgical coordinator to assist patients. Fully experienced physician who carefully explained the procedures while understanding patients anxiety and who has performed thousands of similar surgeries. Updated process to incorporate technological advances in second procedure. More
