Just had Lasik by Dr. Norden done on both eyes and could not be happier. I already have 20 20 vision by the next day. All of the staff are friendly and could not have been more helpful from start to finish. Dr. Norden is so professional and caring. He explained everything in detail and as he completed the procedure. I could not be happier and are amazed with the results and how quick recovery is!

I had my Lasik monovision surgery 9 months ago!! So happy a friend recommended Dr. Norden. It's always awesome to get the best of the best! Dr. Norden and his staff were amazing. He explains everything clearly step by step and makes you feel so comfortable. So happy to be out of contacts finally after 30 years!! Best thing I ever did!!

Dr. Norden and his associates are truly an impeccable team. He answered all my questions openly, maintained a comfortable environment and alleviated all my fears. The whole surgical procedure took about 2 minutes. The gift of flawless vision is absolutely priceless! My biggest regret is waiting this long to get Lasik done. Dr. Norden is a prime example of surgical excellence and is a master of his craft. Immediately post-operatively my vision was 20/30. I had no post op complications aside from some photosensitivity. (sensitivity to light- for which I wore the sunglasses provided by Dr. Norden's office) Instructions were provided via print out and were clear and easy to understand. I will forever be grateful to Dr. Norden and I would not trust my eyes in anyone else's hands. Dr. Norden and his office staff are highly skilled professionals and they ensured my overall patient experience was amazing.

Dr. Norden and his associates are truly an impeccable team. He is nothing short of a miracle worker. He answered all of my questions openly and honestly, alleviated all my fears and maintained a comfortable environment. As a registered professional nurse, I rely heavily on my eyes and although I considered laser eye surgery for years, I was hesitant. The procedure itself took less than two minutes, was completely painless and I had no discomfort in the healing period aside from photosensitivity. (sensitivity to light- for which I wore sunglasses provided by the office) Immediately post op my vision was 20/30. The gift of flawless vision is absolutely priceless. My only regret is not doing Lasik sooner! I could not be more grateful for Dr. Norden's expertise, my life has permanently changed for the better. He is the epitome of surgical excellence and I would never trust my eyes in anyone else's hands. If the thought of having Lasik even crosses your mind, you must go see Dr.… Norden! Highly, highly, highly recommended.
