Wearing glasses for better vision beats the alternative of not being able to see. However, there are many complaints that go along with wearing glasses. If you’ve been wearing glasses for very long, you’ve probably experienced most, if not all of these.
- Glasses get smudged, smeared, and dirty throughout the day. This can make it hard to see through them. If you are active, you may find you have to clean your glasses more than once a day.
- Glasses also scratch and the frames can be bent or broken. Active people also find that they have to replace their glasses more often, which can be expensive.
- Glasses can be uncomfortable to wear. They press on the bridge of your nose, put pressure on the backs of your ears, and can slide down your face when you exercise.
- Glasses can also affect your self-esteem. If you are not comfortable with how you look in glasses, you may find yourself avoiding social situations.
Fortunately, you don’t have to live with glasses forever. Once your prescription is stable and has not changed for over a year, you are over 18, and don’t have any eye diseases, you may be a candidate for laser vision correction surgery, or LASIK. You can find out by having a free consultation at Boothe Laser Center. Dr. William Boothe has been performing LASIK at Boothe Laser Center for 15 years, and is one of the most experienced surgeons in the world. Let him review your eye history and vision, and see if you are a good candidate for LASIK.

Do you know anyone who has had LASIK and was able to get rid of their contacts and glasses forever? If you ask them about it, they probably recommend the procedure. But what do other people think about their results with LASIK surgery?
Over the last 15 years or so, millions of people around the world have had LASIK surgery performed. And while there is no universal database of all LASIK patients, there been many studies done on patients and what they thought of their results.
These studies find that the overwhelming majority of LASIK patients are thrilled with their vision after the procedure. On average, at least 95% of all patients are very happy with their eyesight after LASIK, and would recommend the procedure to others. This makes LASIK one of the most successful and recommended surgeries available today.
Before you make your final decision on LASIK, you will need to have a consultation with Dr. William Boothe. Dr. Boothe has been performing LASIK at Boothe Laser Center since the 1990s. He is extremely experienced and cares about each of his patients’ vision. He will review your eyesight and current prescription, and help you determine if you are a good candidate for the LASIK procedure.

One question that many people have, when they are thinking about having LASIK surgery at Boothe Laser Center, is whether or not the procedure is covered by their insurance.
The only way to know for sure is to check with your insurance company. While there are some insurance plans that will cover part of the procedure, generally most won’t cover LASIK surgery. The reason why is that vision correction surgery is not considered to be a medically necessary treatment.
While it’s unfortunate that your insurance probably won’t cover it, there are options available if you need help in paying for your LASIK procedure. Contact Boothe Laser Center to see about financing programs for LASIK surgery. They have a number of different programs available, and are likely to have one that suits your needs.
In the meantime, you can make your appointment for your free consultation with Dr. William Boothe. He will review your prescription and medical history, and discuss the LASIK procedure with you.

I can not thank Dr. Boothe and his wonderful staff enough. For the first time in my life I can see bright and vivid colors without glasses. A few years ago I could only dream about perfect vision but now it is a reality. Thanks to Dr. Boothe, in spite of my strong astigmatism, I achieved 20/20 vision after my laser eye surgery.
At my first consultation Dr. Boothe listened to me for a long time and reviewed my exam results thoroughly to see if I will be a candidate for Intralasik. I was happy to see his level of professionalism and it help me to make up my mind and schedule a date to do a laser surgery at Dr. Boothe Center. The whole surgery from start to finish was very quick and I did not feel pain.
The results of this surgery changed my life. I now feel confident to go hiking and play soccer with my friends, not worrying whether something will accidentally hit my eyeglasses and break them.

I work at a lawyer’s office. Most of the time I communicate with people and I always have to look good. I have had a very short sighted prescription (-8.5 and -7.0) and astigmatism. The glasses had very thick lenses and did not look good. Then I began to use contact lenses. It was much more comfortable than lenses but can never replace natural vision.
I have chosen Boothe Eye Care & Laser Center due to its superior reputation. I read reviews of Dr. Boothe and used his website and other online resources to ensure I’m choosing well. I was amazed by a great number of surgeries his high level of experience with Intralasik, which is the procedure I wanted to have.
During my first private consultation with Dr. Boothe I asked him a lot of questions. Dr. Boothe gave me full answers. I felt reassured and my worries pretty much disappeared. At the end of the consultation I was sure that I want to have a laser eye surgery.
I am fully content with the result. My eyes have a 20/20 vision. I was able to quickly resume my work. I am very happy that I can see with my own eyes now.

It is the best laser eye center out here. The Boothe Eye Care & Laser Center has professional staff who inspired confidence in me and used modern technology to do my treatment. All members of the staff were very attentive and polite.
For over 10 years I was dreaming of a normal healthy vision and could not even imagine that some day it will be possible. I used 5 years glasses and then contact lenses for four years and I can say both bring a lot of anguish. That is why I did my laser eye surgery at this Center. I did not know what to expect. But I’m happy that I had gone to the RIGHT Center. The laser eye surgery has passed successfully. In the first days, of course, I was uncomfortable: my eyes were bothering me, especially when I was next to strong light. At the same time, it seems that all has changed: I was able to see everything around me in clear, beautiful colors and details. My vision is as good as when I was a kid!
Separately I want to thank Dr. Boothe. During the surgery I consciously felt confident of his professional work and I was not mistaken. He gave me the opportunity to have a good vision. Dr. Boothe helped me made the dream to reality.

Boothe Eyecare and staff,
I cannot find the words to say how much I appreciate all that you have done for me. My Lasik procedure with your help was life-changing for me. Some people can say that it is not so dire not to be able to see clearly without contacts, but I cannot agree with them. I have not been able to do that for a long time and it is still so unbelievable that my vision is 20/20 again. No more eyeglasses and contacts! I will always remember all that you did for me. The Boothe Laser Center is a truly wonderful part of our community.
Thank you for everything, Dr. Boothe

I got my Lasik surgery done at the Boothe Eyecare two months ago and I am so happy with outcome. Although I have asked so many questions, Dr. William Boothe and all of the people who work for him were patient and attentive. I was also impressed by the state-of-the-art equipment at the center. Now I have excellent eyesight and I cannot believe that I do not need to wear glasses or contacts anymore. If you are considering Lasik surgery, call Boothe Center for a consultation.
Best Regards,
J. Mulley

Dr. Boothe works wonders!
Undergoing laser vision correction was my best decision I could have ever made in my life. I strongly recommend you to have your laser eye surgery done by Dr. William Boothe at his Eye Care and Laser Center in Texas. His excellent medical personnel played a large part in my decision to have Lasik. They made sure that all of my questions were answered prio to surgery – I have no complaints! I had my IntraLasik only two weeks ago and results are overwhelming! My vision is 20/20! I can now go to the games of the Dallas Cowboys and enjoy them without my eye glasses!
I will always feel grateful,

It has been two years since I had Lasik procedure done at Boothe Eyecare and I have seen 20/20 since then! Most people cannot even imagine how it is to have again perfectly clear eyesight after 25 years living with astigmatism and somehow correcting the problem with the help of contact lenses. Now I have forgotten what it feels like to wear them and I am so happy to have a new view on life. There is no longer need to go through this hassle while I play tennis or watch TV! I would highly recommend anyone who has vision problems to visit the Boothe Eyecare and undergo the Lasik procedure!

I have worn contact lenses since I was 12. I could never imagine since then that it would be possible to return the quality of vision that I had before. My contact lenses were always a disturbance. I had to put them on every morning, wore them for about 10 hours every day and then took them off before going to bed. It was so annoying. From the moment I first came to the Boothe Laser Center I knew this was the right place. I liked everything there in the office – helpful maintenance staff, the latest and advanced equipment, and Dr. William Boothe himself. He is a great eye surgeon! Nowadays my vision as perfect as it was when I was a child! What could be better than reading your favorite magazine without contacts?

I came to the Texas office and was surprised by the type of service that they provided. The office looked very busy but the staff still took the time out to personally take care of each patient. I had surgery a few weeks ago and am very pleased with the results. I went back for a post-op appointment and Dr Boothe’s assistant gave me an eye exam. The service was as great as the first time I came to the office. I want to personally thank Doctor Boothe for changing my life.

Hi, I am writing this review to show my gratefulness for Dr. Boothe and his staff I’ll always remember my visit to Boothe Laser Center. Dr. Boothe and his assistants listened patiently to all my concerns and gave me all the answers before the procedure. Only 3 days later after the surgery I am already seeing better without contact lenses. Lasik surgery has changed my life forever and I want to let others know of what Dr. Boothe can do you for. Thank you so much, Dr. William Boothe! You’re great man!

Dr. Boothe is great and has super nice staff. My Lasik surgery was performed last Friday and my 20/20 outcome is unbelievable! My vision is perfect and I’m so impressed that I can see leaves on the trees, clock numbers, and people’s facial features and read my favourite newspapers without my contact lenses. My IntraLasik was incredibly affordable – I saved $2000 on my procedure thanks to the discount offered by the Boothe Eye Care & Laser Center. The surgery was unexpectedly quick and completely painless. It took me less than 10 minutes to get it done! If you’re considering of doing Lasik, just call to Boothe Laser Center and go get a consult, because it’s so worth it. Good luck to all of you!
I recommend you to everybody all the time

I considered having IntraLasik done because my glasses irritated me a lot and I did not like wearing them while playing basketball or driving a car. I live in Texas that is why I decided to choose the most popular and professional center in the area – Boothe Eye Care & Laser Center. I liked the office very much and the staff was very friendly. Also I can only say good things about Dr. William Boothe – he was very patient with me and answered all my questions. Now after having the IntraLasik surgery, I can see the ball perfectly. I do not worry about breaking my bothersome glasses because I do need them anymore. I went for my 4 week post-op check up this morning and Dr. Boothe says I have 20/20 vision! What can be better than such news?
Wish you all the best, Dr. Boothe and the staff

I did my eye surgery with Dr. William Boothe at the Eye Care and Laser Center and he was great. After meeting and getting information from some other eye surgeons, I decided to make an appointment with Dr. Boothe. I heard about him from friends and saw his commercials on TV a few years ago. I thought it would be a good idea to go and get an expert opinion from someone who is very experienced. After my first consultation with this man I came to conclusion that there was no sense to travel across the state to have laser correction with any other eye surgeon. I saw official letters from Laser companies in his office that state that he is the most experienced Lasik surgeon in the country and his staff explained how only the latest and best laser equipment is used in the center. I felt that all the elements were in place for a safe, painless and successful surgery. It has been a year since my Lasik operation and I am still impressed by my new, perfect eyesight. I recommended Dr. Boothe and his staff to anyone I know and wrote this letter to be shared with people who are thinking of getting their eye done with him.

I have worn my glasses for the last 7 years, since my eyesight started to deteriorate, probably from watching too much TV or playing computer games too often. I had heard about Lasik many times and some of my friends have done it, but I was always uncertain about having it done. One of my friends had highly recommended the Boothe Eye Care and Laser Center and said they provide a free consultation, so I made the appointment. I liked the office, it did not feel pretentous. Dr. Boothe’s staff was friendly and very knowledgeable. They really took care of me. When I came in a few weeks later to do the surgery, my Lasik took only 10 minutes and I almost did not feel any discomfort during the that time. Nothing can be better than to wake up every morning and be able to see leaves on the tree outside my window very clearly, as if I’m back to the vision I had as a kid. My eyesight is even better than when I was wearing glasses! Thank you Dr. Boothe for correcting my vision.
Best,
Susan L.

I had 40/200 eyesight for the past 15 years and finally decided to have IntraLasik. I chose Dr. William Boothe in Plano, Texas, to perform the procedure using the iFS Advanced Femtosecond Laser. As for me, Dr. Boothe is the greatest surgeon in the country and his professional staff is excellent! I read all of the Lasik-complications sites before the procedure and was not sure if I really want to get it done. I was feeling a little scared. The doctor talked to me through the entire process while it was happening, and all my fears were removed. The IntraLasik procedure was really painless and I felt comfortable during it. I now have 20/20 eyesight and have not had any complications.
I will never forget what you have done for me

Hi. I got Lasik surgery for both eyes one month ago. I did my research and I decided to choose Dr. William Boothe because he has done successful Lasik surgery on some of my friends and acquaintances. The final results were great – 20/20 vision. After I heard that, I understood that Boothe Laser Center is a right place for me. The next day after the procedure, I could see 20/20 in my right eye and 20/30 in my left eye. It is amazing! I still cannot believe that I no longer need to stretch my hand for my glasses to see numbers on my alarm clock display in the morning. I also do not need to use my glasses when I drive the car or read my favorite magazines anymore. The only thing that brought the discomfort was no taking a shower for a few days after the Lasik procedure (my eyes needed some time to heal adequately). But that’s nothing. I have got the best present in my life – I can now see perfectly and I can forget about my irritating glasses for the rest of my life!
Thank you so much, dear Dr. Boothe and all professional staff of the Center!

I’m a taxi driver from Dallas. Choosing to have Lasik eye surgery was one of the best decisions I made for my job and my life. I can’t tell you how important it was for me to have the procedure with a doctor I could trust. I had considered laser vision correction for years, but was very nervous. Dr. William Boothe at the Eye Care and Laser Center in Plano was definitely the guy to see. I heard his ads in the radio for years and finally decided to do it after listening to a show where the host described how he did his eyes with Dr. Boothe. The staff was excellent at putting me at ease. The surgery was quick and painless, follow up care was thorough and I think I went back 4 or 5 times, just to make sure everything is fine. I’m happy with the results.
Dr. Boothe is the best!
