"I've been wearing glasses since the second grade. My Custom LASIK procedure from Envision Laser Centers has given me better than 20/20 vision. Being able to fall asleep at night watching TV, without worrying about taking out my contacts, has taken the art of relaxation to a new high!" Jonathan Reed

I first met with Envision Laser Centers, after learning about their quality service through a few acquaintances that had amazing results after undergoing LASIK eye surgery. After countless hours of research on the providers of LASIK eye surgery, I chose Envision. Following a few visits, complete exams and reviews by Dr. Patel and the optometrists, I received immediate feedback of concerns about the odd shape of my right eye; I was told that the surgery had a slight chance of not being 100% effective. He said it would not be in the best of my interest or the best of interest of Envision to proceed with surgery. Although I was disappointed, the reassurance of knowing that, in this day and age, there are companies that truly care about the safety, quality, and workmanship was relieving.

"My Custom LASIK Procedure with Envision Laser Centers has been nothing short of a miracle. From my initial consultation to the follow-up exams after my procedure, Dr. Patel kept me well-informed and made me feel very comfortable. This was by far easier than my best day in the dentist chair!" Joe Battista

"I cannot imaging having a better LASIK surgery experience than I had through Envision Laser Centers in Richland Township. My entire adult life I’ve been near sighted and have had to rely on either glasses or contacts to see far away. And I have to admit, I was a bit apprehensive about the surgery when I signed up with Envsion this summer; not knowing exactly what to expect. But the doctors and staff were so thorough through the entire process that it was a breeze."
“They conducted an extensive examination to first determine if I was a suitable candidate. Then beyond that point they identified my vision problems and gave me options for the type of surgery I could have. At each step of the process I was well informed of what was going to happen and how it was going to feel."
“That was especially comforting during the surgical procedure itself. Dr. Patel and his staff were so professional and helpful that I was never left in the dark.. literally. The actual surgery took only minutes.. was painless and I knew exactly what was going to take place. There were no surprises. And they were just as thorough with the follow up process as they were before and during surgery."
“And, oh by the way, I came away with better vision than I’ve had since I was a kid – 20-15 in both eyes. Again, I know there are lots of lasik centers to chose from, but I can’t imagine any of them doing a better job start to finish than Envision. Not only would I recommend them to anyone interested in lasik surgery, I already have.” Bill Brown

" I want to thank you so very much for my LASIK surgery. It has already made a tremendous difference in my life and has opened up a new world of color and beauty. I have worn glasses and/or contacts since I was 9 years old, and the last few years my vision has worsened. It's so great to be able to see my alarm clock and has made watching TV more enjoyable. Words cannot express how much I appreciate what you have done for me. Again, I thank you so much!"
Andrea Rose, Altoona
" As an IUP athletic trainer, I work in all types of bad weather including rain and snow which often make wearing glasses and doing my job efficiently next to impossible. Thanks to Envision Laser Centers, I am able to worry about my athletes instead of worrying about my vision during a football game. Thanks again Dr. Patel."
Frank Trenney, Indiana
"Dear Dr. Patel and Staff:
As you may be well aware, in my position as Chief, vision plays an important role not only in my own safety, but that of many others while traveling to and operating at the scene of an emergency incident. I have noticed the most remarkable change in my night vision, which I employ regularly at many fires and related emergencies. It is great to once again be able to look at the alarm clock to take note of the time when wakened by a fire alarm without the need of first locating my glasses.
It is difficult to quantify the positive changes to my lifestyle that your services have afforded me. It is equally difficult to stress the significance of one's vision and how easily it can be improved. A five minute procedure and returning to work the same day, I had never thought possible. It was only through your careful preparation and diligent explanation of the vision correction process that I realized this to be one of the most beneficial decisions I would ever make."

"When I initially thought of LASIK surgery, many questions entered my mind. I found it very informative and comforting, not only to have those questions answered during the consultation, but to have the opportunity to call with any questions when they arose. I found that Dr. Patel was extremely personable and explained the entire process to me prior to surgery. I also enjoyed the twelve month/zero interest opportunity. I now have 20/15 vision and I love it! Thank you Envision Laser Centers & Dr. Patel for your professionalism, expertise and outcome.
"The result of the surgery is anything short of a miracle. It has given me tremendous freedom within the busy schedule that I keep. From skiing, teaching, landscaping, hunting, and coaching; the surgery has allowed me to become more flexible by not having to worry about my contacts. My eyes aren't blood shot anymore and I don't feel tired at the end of the day. I pray daily and thank God for the opportunity to receive such results. Jeff Hileman, Altoona
The staff at Envision was great. I felt very comfortable at every stage. The entire process was very smooth and succinct. Every experience that I went through was carefully explained to me, there were no suprises.
I feel that the price of the procedure was very fair. I look at the process as being an investment. I would have had the same amount of money in contacts, doctor's visits, and solution over the next 4 years anyway. It was totally worth it. Envision will come and has come highly recommended by me personally." Thaddeus White, Bellwood.
"I used contacts for a number of years and thought it was time to try LASIK eye surgery. It was by far the best decision that I've made. Dr. Patel and his staff are very professional and friendly, and to compare prices with other LASIK eye centers they're by far the lowest in the area. I would recommend anyone who is considering LASIK eye surgery to visit Dr. Patel and his staff. They are the best!" Scott Emerick, Martinsburg
