​Dr. Khanna's price was more reasonable and his credentials were excellent. I still didn't have enough saved up to pay his fee but when I explained that I had been saving for such a long time his office worked with me to find a fair price I could pay without saddling me with credit card debt. In gratitude I don't think I should say exactly what I paid but I am extremely confident that there is simply no way I would ever have found a better surgeon at a lower price.

I was not a great candidate for Lasik but my procedure went well anyway. My contact lens prescription was -6.25 with astigmatism in one eye and -6.75 in the other, which is near the upper limit of what can be corrected with Lasik. Also my cornea is slightly thinner than normal (which means there is less substance that can be reshaped) and my eyes are slightly dry. All of these things meant my surgery would be riskier than most. (I would have worried that this report was an attempt to scare me away from cheaper surgeons or talk me into add ons but they didn't try to up-sell me on anything and the other surgeon I consulted with said the exact same thing) Even with the added risks I trusted that Dr. Khanna could do it, and I am extremely glad I did.

It took a while but eventually my vision got to be better than it was with contacts. I had been warned that I had a high risk of seeing "halos", rings of light similar to those I saw without glasses, around bright lights after the procedure. These are common in people with light eyes (mine are blue) and high degrees of correction and for some people they last forever. For me it was much worse than most. I couldn't drive for the first few nights, even though daytime driving was fine the next day. This worried me for weeks but Dr. Khanna assured me it would get better. After a couple months they stopped being noticeable and one night I realized they were completely gone. Now it has been over a year and my vision is noticeably better than it was with contact in all light conditions and at all times of the day (I don't have to worry about my contact drying out after 10-12 hours like I used to.)

highly recommend Dr. Khanna to all my friends who ask about Lasik. I am very grateful for how much the procedure has improved my life. It was well worth the year I spent saving up money to pay for it. Don't go with someone cheaper.
