If I hadn't been aware of what my husband paid for his cataract surgery, I would have ended up spending ALOT more at one location.Again, my experience and confidence in the care I received were positive. read lessSusanSteiner8/16/2023

I had been wearing glasses since I was 12 yrs old, but was able to walk out of the surgery room without having to wear my glasses. The surgery was quicker than I thought. It could be because the team was so engaging. We started talking about vacations (which is a topic I enjoy). It relaxed me and it was done so fast. Dr. Cervantes is such a professional and has blessed hands. His team is amazing too. They all tell you what to expect step by step, which is something I appreciate. Recovery has been great. I took the day off because of the mild irritation and kind of dozed off throughout the day to rest my eyes. Prep for that if you do it because you will need it. I already told a few of my family members and friends about the experience and encouraged them to look into the surgery.

At my first consultation, the process was thoroughly discussed with me, all questions answered with patience and I never felt that I was being rushed out the door. On top of everything, Dr. Cervantes and his coordinator were incredibly accommodating and tried hard to try to get my procedure scheduled to help my timeline and what I needed. Apart from my great outcome, this was the best part of my experience, and I am very grateful they helped me the way they did. The procedure was fast and smooth, with everyone in the operating room walking me through every step and let me know what was coming up so that I felt comfortable. Ultimately it took 8 seconds per eye and the results have been amazing. I can finally see without glasses after decades of wearing them.

I decided to have Toric lenses inserted during the surgery and no longer need glasses except for reading and many times I don’t even need the glasses. I can drive at night again. Colors are so much brighter and true instead of dull and darker than they really are. Before surgery I thought my little grandson’s

I had no issues with the surgeries, nor did I experience any unexpected results, but felt reassured that I was able to meet post-surgery with Dr. Cervantes and his staff, nonetheless. Dr. Cervantes performed my surgeries at the Surgery Center of Fairfield County in Trumbull to which he is affiliated.

When it comes to the surgery, his skills become obvious. You are not put asleep, there is no pain or sensation whatsoever, and Dr. C tells you what he's doing at each step. I've worn eyeglasses for reading and distance sight for more than 25 years. Dr. Cervantes removed my cataracts and corrected my vision to 20/20 in both eyes. I only need glasses for reading.

I found them from a google search for best LASIK surgeons in CT. They live up to the reviews. The staff is friendly and comforting and Dr. Cervantes honors his reputation as an award winning eye surgeon. There is no general anesthesia while performing eye surgery to keep cost and risk associated with general anesthetics down. Since you are fully conscious throughout the surgery, the part I appreciated most was his bedside manner while actually performing the procedure. The OR had 4 people in it. Me, the doc, and two of his staff. He played my favorite genre of music, had me take a valium 30 minutes prior to surgery and was talking me through what he was about to do next the whole time. While going through the process he and his assistants were talking to me about movies, music, and the recent storm we had. I tensed up a couple times and they would remind me to relax my body and take a few breaths. While keeping the mood light and me relaxed he triple checked his calculations by confirming the settings of the laser out loud with his staff and verifying the adjustments. Now, I’ve always been very squeamish when it comes to my eyes. That’s why I never attempted contacts. I even had trouble using eye drops, I would flinch every time I went to use them. I won’t lie, the procedure is not the most comfortable you will be in your life but I can’t imagine any other team making it any more comfortable than CT Eye Specialist. That being said, it is a painless procedure. Your vision goes blurry, you feel pressure on your eye, but I never once felt any pain. If you have corrective eye surgery on your mind you should definitely take them up on their free consultation. They will let you know if you are a candidate and answer any and every question you have. If I who can’t even use eye drops before this can get through the procedure I’m sure anyone can. I remember hearing Nothing Else Matters, Bohemian Rhapsody, Seven Nation Army and Scar Tissue playing and then the procedure was done. That’s about 20 minutes of music, so it took about 10 minutes an eye. Most of that time is the prep, drops, keeping the eye lid open etc. The actual laser part is no longer than 15 seconds. You just stare at the green light and let the doc and the laser do their thing. He sends you home with drops and instructions on taking them. Tells you to take a nap if at all possible and keep your eyes closed as much as possible. I followed the drops instructions. Slept the day away. When I woke up my eye had slight discomfort, as if I went swimming in a pool with chlorine with my eyes open for a bit. But nothing unbearable at all. After using the drops some more and a few more hours I couldn’t even tell I had eye surgery… other than the fact that I can see every detail around me. I went from 20/80 vision.. or 80/20 is it? Hey I’m not the eye doctor here.. to 20/20 in the matter of a 20 minute procedure. As I said I never used contacts, I had glasses for about a week and never really used them. So it’s pretty mind blowing to see all these details that were just a blur to me for 30 years of my life. Did a post op follow up today and the doctor reassured me my eyes are healing as best as possible. The most surprising part for me is the post op recovery, I watched videos and read other people’s experiences with other doctors and I was expecting a lot more pain and discomfort for up to a month after surgery. But that is not the case, again I wouldn’t know I had surgery if I wasn’t seeing so well. Absolutely no pain or discomfort. You can trust Dr. Cervantes and his steady hands and expertise to give you amazing results.Those are tears of joy in the picture. read lessJimmy M.9/05/2021

Doctor Cervantes came highly recommended by one of my peers. I went to Dr. Cervantes following an initial visit with a different doctor (who did not seem very enthusiastic about his job, and his technicians did not know how to use some of the testing equipment). As someone who cares for his eyes, I needed a second opinion before jumping into something this big. Doctor Cervantes' office was the complete opposite, and they were using more up-to-date equipment. Needless to say, I was glad I went in search of a second opinion.The doctor and his team answered all of my questions and were very patient and careful with their analysis and, ultimately, their surgical work. Surgery was just as imagined, but with their professionalism, I felt like I was in good hands.As someone who had pretty bad vision, Lasik surgery with this team was transformative, and 3 months later my dryness has mostly gone away, and my vision is more or less stable. I have recommended, and will continue to recommend, Dr. Cervantes to my friends who wish to go through with this procedure. read lessLuis A.5/12/2021

Best money I've ever spent, and if I did it again I'd do it with Dr. Cervantes.Dr. Cervantes runs the appointment where he evaluates if you're a candidate for Lasik differently from both other providers I interviewed; he splits the appointment into 2, with the first part a really preliminary screening which is free and then the more comprehensive appointment where he dilates your eyes that you pay for, but the payment goes towards the surgery if you go through with it. This is all because he does the screening personally- every other provider handed off the evaluation to a technician. At one of the evaluations I didn't meet my surgeon at all, the other I talked to him for about 5 minutes, and it felt really clear that the surgeon felt I was wasting his time.To contrast that, Dr. Cervantes not only runs the entire initial appointment himself allowing you plenty of time to ask any questions, but he also has a next day and next week followup included in his rates which he also runs personally. He really seems to care about you as a patient even after you leave his surgery room.The recovery time was really impressive. I could see better when I walked out of the surgery room (a little bit foggy) and then after a short nap I was like 90% recovered. I immediately stepped outside and was just completely struck by how beautiful the world looked. I drove myself to the followup appointment the next day.It's been about three weeks now and my eyes seem great. I keep some artificial tears handy because they sometimes get dry (less and less) - it's mostly when I'm tired at the end of the day, honestly it's a useful signal to go to bed. read lessDavid D.11/08/2020
