My experience was excellent and the result was also the same. Dr. Yaldo's attention to detail is extremely reassuring and the results speak for themselves. I can not say enough about the excellent care and treatment that the Dr. and his staff gave to my wife and myself for our lens replacement surgery!!!
After years of waiting for Technology to catch up with and surpass my RK surgery, that I had done in the mid 90s. It was very exciting for me when I heard that Dr Yaldo could help me. I made an appointment immediately and sure enough, him and his most friendly staff said they can help. It’s been an amazing/fantastic experience with some of the most professional and very attending group of people in his office. I am please to say I went from -250/-275 vision in my eyes and early Cataracts to 20/20 today. NO MORE GLASSES!!!
I had a great Lasik experience with Dr. Yaldo. I was a tough case, and he treated me with no issues at all. My vision is testing 20-20 as promised and not having to deal with my contacts is a great relief. The staff was friendly and professional. Low waiting times for all my pre and post-op appointments. I definitely recommend visiting them for Lasik.
Eyes quite a bit better, but definitely not what I expected. Dr. Yaldo is the only doctor in the practice that performs the laser surgery, but he doesn't meet the patients up front. Kind of weird, right? He has the other doctors examine you in the office. Before and during my eye surgery I heard him be rude and demeaning to his nurse, and he actually yelled at me, making me much more nervous that I was to begin with. Bad patient bedside manner. Yells at patients and staff. Has you sign a release of any issues from basically anything including malpractice before he will do surgery. Had I met him instead of the other doctor before the surgery, I would have gone elsewhere. Wanted me to pay them directly and not the insurance company (Guidelines for my coverage was to pay the insurance company). They told me I was getting it 50% off, but afterwards I found out they got a little more by me paying them directly than if I had paid the insurance company.
Beware – Yaldo Eye Center is a Scam only out for your money not for there clients I had LASIK eye surgery at Yaldo Eye Center in 2021, and it’s now 2025 – I can barely see. What was promised to be a life-changing improvement has turned into a nightmare. My vision has deteriorated significantly, and I’m left worse off than before the surgery. When I tried to reach out for follow-up care or support, I was brushed off and told it was “normal.” The staff was all smiles before the procedure, but the moment problems started, their concern vanished. It feels like they only care about pushing patients through the door and collecting payments. No real accountability, no transparency about long-term outcomes, and certainly no meaningful aftercare. Clients, beware. Don’t fall for the slick marketing and high-pressure sales tactics. This place is more interested in profit than patient outcomes. I regret trusting Yaldo Eye Center and would strongly advise anyone considering LASIK here to think twice.
SMILE technology is not bad. It can't really be used on those with high astigmatism and it may take a few months to see full results. I perform CATz because CATz is the best form of Lasik available and provides next day results. I am the only surgeon regularly performing this surgery in Michigan and there may only be 1 or 2 in your state as well. This is because the laser is new, very expensive, and complicated to operate. If you can find a surgeon in your area performing CATz, its superior to SMILE.
The CATz laser is the gold standard of Lasik. The catz laser uses 7,000 plus points of light to map the cornea and create a customized atmospheric treatment zone. Traditional lasers and ReLex SMILE lasers cannot achieve this map as they only utilize a few hundred points of light to analyse the corneal surface. Look for a surgeon in your city who performs CATz. Call and ask, most surgeons do not perform CATz because it takes advanced training to operate the laser. I am the only surgeon in Michigan regularly performing CATz.
I personally perform CATz Lasik as it is the most advanced form of Lasik available. If you are treated with a CATz laser your vision will reach 20/20 - 20/15 the next day. If you are treated with a standard Lasik laser or a SMILE laser, it may take a few months for the full results to manifest in your vision.
When people come into my detroit lasik practice looking for the best vision correction possible, I dont give them Lasik. I give them a Contact Lens Implant, more specifically a ClearLens Exchange. This surgery is truly the diamond standard of vision correction and if you are looking for something a but more powerful than Lasik I recommend looking for someone in your city who performs this procedure. It will also prevent you from developing cataracts in the future as you will have a synthetic lens implanted which does not age.
20/20 vision is standard and patients are always extremely happy to test 20/20. You should not be upset with 20/20 vision, it is technically, perfect vision. With that in mind, a majority of my patients achieve 20/15 and sometimes better. This is because I operate a CATz laser. CATz is the most advanced type of Lasik eye surgery available and I highly recommend looking for someone in your state who performs CATz. I am the only surgeon regularly performing CATz in Michigan and there are most likely only a few in your area too, so you do your research online.
