Dr. Kelly is an outstanding surgeon who performed my PRK surgery in June 2020. His expertise and professionalism throughout the entire process were impressive. Thanks to Dr. Kelly, my surgery was a success, and I am very satisfied with the results. I highly recommend him to anyone considering...
I am one week out from getting PRK done on my eyes. I wear glasses and/or contacts for mild nearsightedness (-1.5 in both eyes, astigmatism off and on for several years). I require keen vision for the observational requirements of my job, so I decided to take the plunge with Pacific Cataract...
I can finally see! My vision was 20/200 I was really struggling to see things at any distance. I would run into things, mistake people I thought I knew, had to wear glasses while driving, embarrassed to admit I couldn't read the board during my college lectures. It was such an emotionally...

I got PRK surgery here at Carlsbad Eye Care and was so blind I couldn't drive for almost 2 months, had to quit my job for that whole time only for in the end the surgery gave me ZERO percent improvement in my vision, it just made my corneas thinner (bad). When all was said and done, they told me...
The services provided by Dr. Kelly and his team were second to none. Had PRK surgery done, and everything was quick, smooth, and professional. The process was incredibly simple, and the speed with which the surgery was completed was baffling. Cannot recommend more highly!
