I didn’t wear any contacts my first few years in the league, then I started wearing them and realized football was easier when I could see. I can’t tell you how annoying contacts and glasses have been for my life. I’ve had contacts fall out during games.
My experience with IQ Laser Vision has been absolutely perfect, everyone has always been available for me and comforting during the procedure. I can honestly say I’m seeing better than I have ever seen before.

The whole team at IQ Laser Vision has been so amazing. Even though I was scared, I went into my procedure so confident that I would come out with perfect vision. I woke up this morning with better vision. I was kind of tripping out because this morning when I woke up, I had better vision than I had with my glasses or contacts. I can see you in 4k!

I can even swim without Alan nagging me to change my glasses quickly. ✌️ But still, thanks to him for helping me with eye drops without complaints this week.

The surgery I had at IQ was a huge success, it changed my life greatly. Without any side effects, no dry eye and no pain. I was a little embarrassed that I hugged Dr. Lin and cried after the surgery. This is a life-changing surgery for someone with high prescriptions like me.

I recently underwent LASIK surgery at IQ Laser Vision in Santa Clara and I must say that my experience from the initial consultation with Jacinta to the post-operative care with Ricky was spectacular. One of my top 3 best decision I’ve ever made.
The staff at IQ Laser Vision was exceptional. From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted by friendly and knowledgeable staff members who made me feel comfortable and at ease. They took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, answer all of my questions, and address any concerns I had. Their experience and expertise gave me confidence in their abilities and put my mind at ease.
During the actual surgery, the Dr. Phan and nurse talked me through each step of the procedure, making sure I understood what was happening and keeping me calm throughout. Their precision and expertise were evident, and I felt confident that surgery would be successful.
The recovery process was also super well-managed. The post-operative care instructions were clear and easy to follow, and the staff provided me with all the necessary eye drops to aid in my healing. They scheduled post op, 1 week, and 1 month follow-up appointments to monitor my progress and ensure that everything was going smoothly.
I can confidently say that getting LASIK at IQ Laser Vision – Santa Clara was one of the best decisions I’ve made. My vision is now 20/15 which is above my expectations! I am no longer reliant on glasses or contact lenses which is the best thing ever!
In conclusion, I highly recommend IQ Laser Vision in Santa Clara for LASIK surgery. Their skilled and caring staff, combined with their top-notch facility and equipment, make them a standout choice. The clarity and sharpness of my vision are remarkable, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. If you’re considering LASIK, I urge you to visit IQ Laser Vision – Santa Clara and get a consultation to see if you qualify! It’s truly a life-changing experience that you won’t regret. I guarantee it!

Just had my SMILE procedure done and it’s a whole new world!!! I’ve had a high prescription of -7 and basically terrible site for the last 19yrs, my life always evolved around contacts/glasses. And I finally decided to do something about it! Better late than never right? Seriously these guys took care of me from start to finish (literally this took less than a few weeks from our first consultation) incredible team. Everyone is so nice and caring and answered all my questions and addressed all my concerns (I’m from the generation of Final Destination iykyk ) I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner but also sooo happy to have gone with the team at IQ Laser. I could basically see later that night after my procedure, next day was about 80% vision and by 3rd was basically in high 90’s! Have zero regrets and so thankful for this new gift of sight. Work life on set is about to be a game changer with no more fussing with my contacts! Shout out to Edward, Dr. Pham and the whole team you guys are changing lives!!!

My name is Charles Nguyen. I’m a professional dancer/choreographer and stage performer with The Kinjaz. I’ve been dancing with terrible eyesight for 13 years until I learned about IQ Laser Vision. They helped me with such hospitable care and knowledge that they turned a scared and nervous customer into an excited confident one. It’s amazing because I was lucky enough to get my LASIK due to my high astigmatism. But they were so thorough with my case that I was able to have a better understanding of the situation for the first time in my life. BTW, the surgery was only like 15 mins so it was a breeze. After literally two days of my recovery, I’m able to continue my life with clear vision to express my art and I’m in a better position to elevate my career as a dancer. So if you’re thinking about getting it done, I highly recommend this institution.

Do you remember what you did 14 years ago? Maybe what happened 14 days ago may not be remembered very clearly. But I still clearly remember 14 years ago, Dr. Robert Lin from IQ Laser Vision helped me with my -5 prescription to restore 20-20 clear vision, and that day 14 years ago, it completely changed my life.
IQ provides careful pre-treatment examinations and state-of-the-art treatment equipment. During the 15-minute procedure on the day of surgery, Dr. Lin’s patented ultra-thin corneal flap technology and his abundant experience made me feel very relaxed and trusted. He would tell me what he was going to do next, how he was going to do it, and the day after the treatment, I was able to drive to work.
14 years later, my eyesight is still 20-20. I appreciate Dr. Lin and I highly recommend his practice. Their entire team is very caring and professional. They will let you know whether it is suitable for laser vision correction after inspection to provide the most suitable treatment.
I highly recommend anyone who wants to get rid of vision problems to contact them as soon as possible to book a free exam, you will never regret it.
Thank you!

It’s been two weeks since I got my vision corrected at IQ Laser Vision in LA and I honestly couldn’t be happier, not just with my new 20/20 vision but also the entire surgery and post-op process. Plus, it was a perfect opportunity for me to make a mini road trip out of it and see my parents for a bit since they still live in SoCal!
The surgery itself: the staff and doctors at IQ Laser Vision made me feel like I was in very capable hands. Before the surgery, they made sure to answer any last-minute questions I had and talked me through after-surgery care. During the procedure, my doctor talked me through the entire thing and before I knew it, we were done!
COVID safety measures: they took my temperature before allowing me to enter the clinic and made sure any pre-surgery medications were taken outside the office since it would require me to take my mask off. I noticed that there were only one or two other patients in the office at the same time I was, so social distancing was never an issue
Post-op appointments: since I currently live in SF, I was able to have my post-op appointments at their Cupertino office instead of having to go all the way back down to one of their SoCal offices!
Overall, I highly recommend IQ Laser Vision to anyone who’s thinking about getting their vision corrected! My total recovery time was approximately a day (which is honestly nothing!) and then I was back to doing normal everyday things. If anyone has any questions, feel free to reach out to me and I’ll try to help as best as I can.

Customer service is top-notch
I don’t think I can accurately convey my excitement and anticipation when I lost my RGP (rigid gas permeable) lenses for the 12093810239th time and my mom said, “When you graduate, let’s get you LASIK surgery.” I HAD (heehehe wooo) a very high prescription and had been wearing glasses since 1st grade, and RGP lenses since 3rd grade. There have been many activities and events that I avoided because of these lenses and glasses.
I came here for a consultation (free, mandatory) to get some tests done and learn about my options. The staff here work like a well-oiled machine; each individual has a specific role and function. The quality of customer service is top-notch. They do not skimp or cut corners with the vision tests, and they double- and triple-checked, which can be a bit time-consuming but when it comes to my vision and my eyes, I’d much rather be safe than sorry. Feel free to ask all the question you have.
One thing to note is that if you wear soft lenses, you should stop wearing them for at least three days before the consultation. If you wear RGP lenses, you should stop wearing them for at least three WEEKS before the consultation. The reason for this is to make sure that the measurements they take during the consultation are accurate and not distorted due to contacts lens wear.
The actual Lasik surgery process was relatively quick and pain-free. Dr. Lin was very calm during the process, which helped a lot. The thing that helped me the most, however, was when the staff assisting him put her hand on mine during this one part of the procedure that was (in my opinion) the scariest.
It’s been about a month after my procedure and I sometimes forget that I’m not wearing contacts. My eyesight has been fluctuating a bit but I’ve been told that that’s normal, and it will stabilize as my eyes heal over the next few months and as my eyes become less dry. During my last checkup, my eyesight was declared 20/20. The absolute best part is waking up in the morning and not having to fumble around.
If you’re on the fence about getting Lasik, I’d say sooner is better than later. If you’ve already had contacts and glasses for a long time, why not get checked now? The stronger your prescription is, the more expensive the surgery will be. In any case, the consultation is free so you might as well take the opportunity to learn some more about this and see what your options are.
A special shout out to Julie and Kevin and Dr. Richard for being so helpful, friendly, and welcoming throughout this process!

It has always been a dream of mine to someday get LASIK done as my eyesight has been terrible since I was younger. Also, traveling with contacts was always the most dreadful thing and it dried out my eyes more than ever.
I went to IQ Laser Vision for my consultation and the staff made sure I was comfortable at all times. I was told that I would be doing two different procedures in either of my eyes due to having astigmatism on one side. I was well informed of both procedures and the actual surgery went by faster than expected! Dr. Phan talked me through the process as he was working on my eyes and I didn’t feel a thing!
It’s been 6 weeks and it’s still a surreal feeling being able to see perfectly and not have to worry about contacts. I had some slight dryness on one eye and glaring of lights at night but that phase has passed and I’m incredibly happy with my results. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to get LASIK!

I am incredibly thankful for the doctors and staff of IQ laser vision for giving me clear vision through the SMILE procedure. As an optometrist, it was surreal learning about the newer procedure back in optometry school and then having the opportunity to take part in it. SMILE stuck out to me, due to how it only required a small incision without the need of the flap in LASIK. I liked that SMILE was minimally invasive and could help with my particular contact lens dryness issue. The process through IQ Laser Vision was extremely thorough from beginning to end. Dr. Lin first introduced me to the procedure letting me know I was a good candidate. The consultation process was informative providing all the steps and eye drops needed. Despite having the usual pre-surgical nerves, Amber, Dr. Tran, and the staff were very understanding and took their time to answer all my questions. The procedure went by extremely smoothly and I felt calm as Dr. Phan explained each step as he was performing the surgery. The next morning, I was able to wake up seeing clearly without the hassle of finding glasses or putting on contacts!
I attended the UIW Rosenberg School of Optometry and completed my Bachelor of Science in General Biology, at UC San Diego. Throughout the majority of those school years, I experienced dry eyes with contact lenses whether it was in lectures or spending time at the beaches of San Diego. I enjoy being active when traveling, outdoors, and at the gym but always had to ensure I had backup glasses in the case my contact lenses were too dry. My vision independence through SMILE has been life changing! I can now continue my work and travel experiences with my new vision!

As a TV, radio show and host of a large show, you must maintain a very good image and vision.
I am a person who pursues perfection. If I have not tried it myself, I feel that it is good enough. I will not introduce it to my friends easily. For the eyes, I compared a lot of ophthalmologists and found that Dr. Lin is the most worthy of my trust, and the IQ Laser Vision equipment is novel, service is thoughtful, and surgery is superb.
Dr. Lin and his team are not only very modest but also very concerned about the patient.
So I chose IQ Laser Vision to do eye vision correction surgery for me. I am very satisfied. I also introduced many friends and family and my fans to do myopia, hyperopia and cataract vision correction. They are very satisfied and make me feel very proud.

IQ Laser Vision is definitely the best choice in laser vision correction!
As most women can attest, it is near impossible to read the words on the bottom end of lipstick labels. Having difficulty seeing both near AND far made the task even more daunting. The frustration with my vision peaked when I needed to replace a lipstick but couldn’t figure out which brand it was because I couldn’t read the label – Lancôme? MAC? Dior? I made the call that should have been years ago and scheduled my free consultation with Dr. Robert Lin at IQ Laser Vision . Since I had problems seeing both near and far Dr. Lin recommended a procedure for me called Monovision. Since having my vision restored life is less complicated. I no longer have to deal with two different sets of glasses and constantly switching between the two, one to see far and one to read. Dr. Lin is a graduate of UCLA Medical School of Ophthalmology which made it easy to trust I was in good hands! With several locations in Southern California, IQ Laser Vision is definitely the best choice in laser vision correction!

One random day I had decided to start looking into LASIK. I posted a status on my Facebook asking friends what they recommended. I got an overwhelmingly positive response and a majority of friends who don’t even know each other recommended Dr Lin at IQ. I signed up for 2 consultations – one with IQ and another at laser eye center.
Steve Higa and the entire staff at IQ were nothing short of amazing. Veronica my coordinator and Kevin who did my eye cleaning with the most enthusiasm I’ve ever witnessed made me feel really comfortable and relaxed. Every single staff member was so friendly. While I was waiting for my next test, Ed even offered me coffee and made it for me. Now that’s customer service!
Before I knew it, I was canceling my other consultation and signing up for a date to get my LASIK done with Dr Lin who took the time between surgeries to say introduce himself and answer questions.
Now the day of the LASIK procedure I was a nervous wreck because as far as major surgeries go, this is as major as it gets. The entire staff was reassuring and STEVE stayed past his work hours to just chat with me and keep me distracted while I waited. THANKS STEVE
The surgery itself was so darn quick I couldn’t believe it. Dr Lin talked me through all the steps and was so calm – really made a difference when you know what to expect when he’s cutting and shooting lasers at your eyeball.
Today is the morning after and I’m on the way to my follow up. I CAN SEE!!!!!!!!!! Everyone was right: this is the most incredible feeling ever. I just cannot begin to express my gratitude to Dr Lin, Veronica, Steve, Kevin, Ed and the rest of the staff at IQ Laser Vision for giving me the gift of sight back and for making this the best experience possible.
EDIT:::::::

I’ve always heard good things about getting LASIK surgery, but was still wary about the procedure. When IQ Laser Vision was recommended to me, I did my research and after reviewing numerous positive reviews and feedback I called for a consultation. Dr. Robert Lin personally met with me and answered all my questions and addressed the concerns that I had. His staff was accommodating and made me feel very comfortable before, during, and after the procedure.

Long overdue review (I received my procedure in December of 2011) but better late than never right?
So my eyes were bad, like legally blind bad, I think my prescription was -14.0 ish (I’m having trouble remembering now what it was like to be so blind haha). Because my prescription was so high, regular Lasik or even PRK was out of the question. I had to do ICL, which involves implanting a collamer lens (basically a permanent contact) inside your eyeball. Sounds terrifying right?!
Before the procedure my mom had done her research on all the best doctors in this field, reading countless articles and consulting all of her friends in the community. Every source seemed to think Dr. Lin was the best and he’s won a bunch of awards! Also, my sister had a Lasik procedure with him the year before me and it had gone very smoothly. I had to start my consultation more than a year before my procedure, since I had been wearing hard contact lens and needed to make the switch to soft contacts a full year before the procedure. Then, the last week or two, I was supposed to be off contacts completely and switched to glasses, so my eyeball shapes could be fully adjusted to their normal state.
As mentioned by another reviewer, I was fine until I thoroughly read all the paperwork about all the risks and possible complications and completely freaked myself out. Do yourself a favor and just sign on the dotted line =P.
During the procedure itself, I won’t lie but it was a very scary process. ICL is a much more in-depth procedure than Lasik and the whole thing probably took about an hour, and I was awake the whole time! I was given shots of anesthesia into my eyeball (which hurt!) and then the procedure involved making an incision and then sliding in the collamer lenses. Although very nerve-wracking (they even gave me an anti-anxiety pill beforehand), after the anesthesia shots nothing else hurt, and it just felt like a lot of pressure on my eyes. Dr. Lin was very kind and talked me through what he was doing and advised me when he was almost done. He also gave me a break between eyes.
The recovery time is also a little rough compared to Lasik, my vision wasn’t perfect the next day and it probably took a good week for my eyesight to adjust but I am proud to report that I now have 20/15 in one eye, and 20/20 in the other =). Knowing this though, definitely leave yourself a good week to recover without having to go right back to school/work. I was in bed for most of the first few days after.
Laser IQ is also great about follow-up appointments and providing a support system for you as you recover (with 1 day after follow-ups, 1 month follow-ups, 3 month follow-ups, and 1 year follow-ups!). I also got a supplementary minor procedure to fix some lingering astigmatism a year after my ICL procedure, free of charge!
Shooting lasers at your eyes is a scary process, but I can honestly say I wouldn’t have trusted my precious eyes to anyone but Dr. Lin. You can do it too, having perfect vision now is so worth it!

I had been wearing glasses and contacts for over 15 years and find them both very inconvenient. Seeing IQ Laser Vision on Yelp gave me that push that I needed to go in for a consultation. Even though the office was busy, they had a large number of staff to accommodate my needs.
I had many worries going into LASIK, but Dr. Lin’s expertise and good reputation reassured me throughout the procedure. The staff was extremely helpful and I was given papers that gave me step by step instructions on how to treat my eyes before and after the procedure. I knew exactly what to expect and that I was in good hands.
Honestly, having this procedure done was one of the best decisions of my life. I can enjoy life more fully without the worry of contacts or glasses! I would definitely recommend IQ Laser Vision to everyone I know. I am so glad I took this journey with IQ Laser Vision . Thank you!

Nothing is more important to a sportscaster than getting the score right. But when I looked at the scoreboard at Dodger Stadium, I could never see the score. It was too blurry. All the numbers looked the same. It was a hassle and embarrassing, and I was always worried I’d get the score wrong on the radio. They eased my fears, and made me feel comfortable throughout the procedure. I highly recommend IQ Laser Vision .

In life we direct, plan, and form our own destiny. Most of us hold the capacity to select the opportunities that define our path and mold our future. I selected IQ Laser Vision to improve my vision, and I am very thankful of Dr. Lin and his staff for the attention I received before, during and after my procedure. The annoyances, irritations, and fatigue of the pterygium on my right eye have completely disappeared, and I am very happy to have placed my confidence with IQ Laser Vision . IQ Laser Vision is very professional and also very compromising to their patients to achieve the best work. Furthermore, they made me feel like I was part of the IQ family. Once again, thank you very much, and I am ready for the Micro-LASIK® procedure. Thank you for being so kind to all your patients. We will meet again soon, and you are worthy of being recommended.

My vision came true…
As motivational speaker and trainer, I encourage others to create what is termed “vision boards”.
Having a vision can create goals and dreams that become realities. With the power and help of visualization, one can see the future.
In 2008, I wrote on my own vision board, that I strongly desired to get laser eye surgery one day. I have worn glasses and contacts since I was in the 4th grade. My eyesight was so bad that I was considered nearly legally-blind.
Now everything has miraculously changed because of the truly amazing IQ Laser Vision center and Dr.Lin. I can see from morning to night, I am truly amazed, as I have exceedingly better vision than I did with corrective lenses.
Your Vision Can Come True!

My results are excellent
Dr. Robert Lin of IQ Laser Vision performed my refractive correction procedure for my eyes and because of him I no longer rely on reading glasses. My work in aesthetics and the beauty industry, including permanent make-up application, requires clear vision. I had no hesitation to count on Dr. Lin for my LASIK procedure. My results are excellent and I cannot thank him enough.

My vision was dramatically improved after undergoing Dr. Lin’s MICRO-LASIK® surgery. As a TV host, I need to see well when I’m on camera. However, my vision was so imbalanced because the right eye was seriously more nearsighted than the left. I often lost focus when I was hosting the TV show and looked cross-eyed. Therefore, I decided to have vision correction surgery. After consulting with many doctors, I chose IQ Laser Vision to perform my surgery. IQ Laser Vision has state-of-the-art equipment and a very knowledgeable staff. More importantly, Dr. Lin is a very caring and experienced surgeon, so I placed complete trust in him to perform my procedure. Without a doubt, the surgery was a success! That’s why I would like to speak about my experience at IQ Laser Vision and recommend Dr. Lin to my friends and family with vision problems. As a public figure in the Chinese community, I am very cautious about endorsements. I never endorse anyone or anything without a great reputation or personal experience. After my experience at IQ Laser Vision , I would like to say: IQ Laser Vision is trustworthy and Dr. Lin is excellent!

I was really nervous as I had never received an ophthalmological treatment before so everything was new to me. Fortunately, I received professional care from Dr. Lin and his staff at IQ Laser Vision . The results are perfect! Thank you to everyone at IQ Laser Vision and Dr. Lin for giving me the miracle of sight!

Dr. Lin with the LASIK procedure has given me the biggest improvement in my quality of life. From the moment that I set my foot in the Vision Institute of Southern California, I felt the competence of Dr. Lin and his staff. The quality of care was incomparable to any other center that I visited. Dr. Lin personally evaluated me before the surgery to discuss all my options. He carefully performed the surgery without the feeling of being rushed. He was also the one to provide all of the follow up care. I know that I received the very best and complete package of vision correction care.

I felt right at home
My name is Matt Lindstedt and IQ Laser Vision recently did my LASIK surgery. Dr. Lin and staff are such an amazing team I felt right at home. I’m now seeing 20/15 in both eyes without any halos at night and just wearing sunglasses throughout the day. This has been such a relief and I couldn’t be happier with the results I’ve received. My dad couldn’t believe the results that I was seeing and he too has had LASIK surgery with Dr. Lin. He too achieved the same results and can’t believe how long he waited to be able to see life in a new light. I would strongly recommend anyone who is considering LASIK surgery to go to Dr. Lin and the entire IQ Laser Vision staff if they are looking for the best LASIK surgery outcome they can attain.

If you are thinking about having laser surgery–you must know about IQ Laser Vision ! I just had my surgery this month, and I can’t stop raving about Dr. Lin and his entire staff. From the first call to the after care, everyone at IQ was knowledgeable, kind and personable. They turned what could have been somewhat stressful into a spa-like experience. I was really surprised at how quick and easy the entire process is. And very importantly, I had NO pain! This surgery really is miraculous. I was always concerned about losing a contact while diving or surfing because my eyes were so bad. If I am going to face a shark–I don’t want to do it blind…The very next day I could see EVERYTHING, it’s fantastic. I don’t think my vision was EVER this sharp, even as a child. Next month my brother is flying in from Portland just to see if Dr. Lin can fix his eyes too!
