“Dr. Kuriakose performed my Lasik surgery! He was extremely available before (months before!) and after the operation to answer questions which was great for me who had a bit of nerves prior. He was very diligent about scheduling the pre-operation checkup and the post-operation checkup - he even went as far to give me a call a few hours after the surgery to check in on me. Overall, it was a great experience getting Lasik with Dr. Kuriakose, I would recommend it for anybody!”

“Glasses-Free! Dr Kuriakose did an amazing job on my PRK procedure! I’m seeing better than ever before. He was patient in walking me through all the options and the entire process through post-op recovery. I would highly recommend Dr Kuriakose.”
