I did my Lasik here after attending a forum. They gave me free eye evaluation and a voucher for $100 off any package. Since I have been reading up it for years, I decided to attend the forum with a friend.
The staff were very friendly and informative. The instructions for caring of the eyes after the operation were given during the eye check and after the operation itself.
As I was nervous during the operation, I talked to Dr Goh, my assigned doctor based on my eye power at that time. He was reassuring me all the time and giving me instructions to focus my eye on the blinking light.
I started to tear a lot after 5 minutes. The nurses were helpful by giving me instructions and directing me to the reception to meet my friend.
The clinic itself is rather full until closing time. It has patients from Japan too. I even saw a few mothers with young kids doing Lasik.
I had my LASIK operation at the Lasik Surgery Clinic (LSC) Oct 2007.
I did some research before deciding whether to do LASIK, what kind of LASIK as well as where to go for it.
After reading the studies, consultation with friends, and those in the field, I decided on LSC as they had a good promo then with a new equipment(VISX) (INTRALASE LASIK) they just brought in.
The service though alright, was inconsistent IMO. I guess it was becoz they were a busy clinic plus I went during lunch time.
First health screening to check if u are suitable for the op. Once you have been ascertained to be suitable, you would then be asked to see if you are willing to undergo the surgery. At no point in time,did they pester you to make a decision on the spot. For me, it was an easy decision, cheap and good. The clinic has only SENIOR eye surgeons with good accolades and experience.
In addition, they would also provide recommendations on the types of LASIK surgery that you would be suitable for base on the condition of your eyes. And again, I must emphasize that they will not hard sell you into taking up a pricier package, but rather let you decide on your own.
As for the surgery and the follow-ups (3 in total), they were professional as well and made you feel completely at ease. If you have any doubts, you can feel free to check with the doctors or optometrists on the spot. Also, you have the option of choosing your own doctor to perform the surgery for you if you have had recommendations from your friends or relatives.
Lastly, I must say that their prices are very competitive. However I must say that it's hard to compare between clinics as like mobile plans, it depends on what u are after. Different clinics use different equipment hence the price is different.
Cheapest does not necessary mean u get the best and latest technology.
INTRALASE IMO is safer as there is no PHYSICAL contact when your cornea flap is being created. Plus, INTRALASE follows the curvature of the eye ball thus creating a more uniform flap and healing's better and less risk of induced astigmatism. Of coz, best is INTRALASE with Wavefront (read customised LASIK) but i got not enuff money for that. In the end, just 2 days after the op, I felt sooo free. Free from bad eyesight, free from glasses, free to do lotsa of stuff. Now is two months already and i am still discovering new things about this new found freedom each new day!
Do your research first. Read everything with a critical mind, take other people's advice with a pinch of salt.
Depending on what u are after, come to a conclusion which method u prefer, the price to pay and the LASIK surgery clinic yourself.

I did my Lasik operation at the Lasik Surgery Clinic in June this yr. The service there was really excellent. The staff there would first request you to fill up a simple questionnare on your history of your eye's conditions. After which, they would then dilate your eyes using a lotion to check on ur pupils as well as conduct several other tests to determine if you are suitable for undergoing the surgery.
Once you have been ascertained to be suitable, you would then be asked to see if you are willing to undergo the surgery. At no point in time,did they pester you to make a decision on the spot. For me, I made the decision there and then, partly due to the consideration that GST was still at 5% then.
In addition, they would also provide recommendation on the types of Lasik surgery that you would be suied for based on the condition of your eyes. And again, I must say that they will not coerce you into taking up a pricer package, but rather let you decide on your own.
Before the surgery, they would first conduct a talk to share with the patients on teh various aspects of Lasik surgery and what you would expect after the surgery.
As for the surgery and the follow-ups (3 in total), they were very professional as well and made you feel completely at ease. If you have any doubts, you can feel free to check with the doctors or optometrists on the spot. Also, you have the option of choosing your own doctor to perform the surgery for you if you have had recommendations from your friends or relatives. For me, I did not have anyone and was assigned DR. Yap Soo Keong. And I must say that he was a very nice person.
Lastly, I must say that their prices are very competitive and if you are a SAFRA member, you can get a discount of 10%( if i remembered correctly). All in all, I must say that the clinic gave me a very good experience and I would recommend this place for those considering Lasik surgery
