I am officially one-week post-op from my "SMILE" procedure, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with my experience at Wang Vision Institute and my results. I am a classic case of "got glasses when I was nine and haven’t been able to see without them since." A bladeless LASIK procedure was something that I had wanted to do for well over a decade. The only thing that kept me from making the leap was... I’ll be honest, I am a big baby when it comes to procedures. The thought of eye surgery? That was the scariest part. A friend in the greater Nashville area sang the praises of Wang Vision Institute so much that I knew I had to at least take the first step in conquering my fear and just make a consultation. Making that call has been one of the greatest decisions I have ever made. I was immediately greeted by friendly office staff who were extremely accommodating in fitting me into the schedule and extremely knowledgeable about the procedures themselves. Something that I was so thankful for was the pricing transparency at Wang Vision Institute. Within the first call, I had a better idea of my options if I was a candidate for the procedure than all of my years of google searches combined. When I made it to the office on the day of my consultation, the process was seamless, and the entire team explained every part of the procedure so well. The thorough knowledge they shared with me eased my fears, so much so that I wanted to go ahead and get the procedure done the same day - and they were kind enough to fit me in for the last procedure of the day. The entire team at Wang Vision Institute has the utmost professionalism. I sincerely appreciated their respect in presenting me all of my options and never acting like salespeople. I have had negative experiences before with other "cosmetic surgeries" where the staff heckles you like a mall kiosk salesperson. You will not try to be "sold" anything. This was relieving and I never felt pressured. A few special shout-outs to Dennis Knight for great work sterilizing my eyes before the procedure, Dr. Jake Wysiadlowski for answering my myriad of questions, Dr. Kyle Jones for his incredible work in the operating room, and especially technician James Wright. James was there walking me through every step throughout the procedure. I was so nervous, but James made sure I did not feel alone while Dr. Jones was performing the SMILE procedure. Because I am such a baby, I know James did not have an easy job the day of my procedure and I want to make sure his talents and excellent communication with patients is recognized. Thank you Wang Vision Institute for changing my life! The morning sun looks extra beautiful now when I wake up and can see the world without glasses or contacts. What a gift! More

This place gave us a complimentary consult and same day treatment, which was great considering I work as a welder and can’t wear my glasses at work - so I was able to plan this around our annual shut down. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, even when things got a little difficult with the HSA card. We got there about 15 minutes early and got called back right away, exam was fast and easy, took a few minutes for the doctor to come back, he was friendly and examined me quickly, answering all of our questions thoroughly and without making us feel any type of way about them, the financial coordinator took a while to come in, but was helpful one he got in there and explained the pricing for us, even helped us apply for financing. The front helped us deal with HSA card issues, worked with my night shift schedule, and I even checked in on Facebook and got my girlfriend a Starbucks gift card!The only complaint about that process is some of the things they "upsold" us on - I didn’t feel like gave the best explanation. The eyelid cleaning - was a HORRIBLE experience and I wouldn’t ever get that or recommend it to anyone. I felt like it was a waste of money, didn’t do much, but also wasn’t fully explained just recommended/told I had to get. The lady who did it cleaned them with a brush, which was fine, but then used the bright light (without telling me it would be a bright light, right after my eyes were dilated) and shoved it into my eye socket, even when I pulled back and told her it was really tough her response "yeah it’s a little uncomfortable" with a laugh - just felt like she didn’t truly know how to do it right and caused a lot of pain before I even had the procedure. I asked for the Valium beforehand/told her they should give it before that as I was already anxious - she just laughed and said I get it after. My girlfriend even went home and watched some videos on the treatment and says that is NOT how the lady did it - for $650 an eye I feel like that should’ve been a better experience.I also think they could’ve explained the SMILE procedure itself a little better and how the flow would go - I was anxious about the laser, but not being able to move at all for thirty seconds sent my anxiety and blood pressure skyrocketing - and I feel I would’ve been better prepared if they told me ahead of time what to expect. I also got the little tear duct plugs they recommend - and then at the follow up the next day had to have one taken out, just didn’t make sense, if they were that needed why was it removed next day, but the rest stay for 3-4 months.Overall I had a good experience and I would do it again without question. My vision was improved that day, and other than a little blurriness I’m able to see without corrective lenses for the first time in my life - and I had HORRIBLE vision. I just wish they had explained a little more and helped me feel fully confident in everything I paid for. To anyone wanting to get it done - they were great, I wouldn’t personally recommend the eyelid cleaning - BUT the staff was amazing and the procedure has changed my life. More
