"I did the surgery and it went fine. The problem is the lack of organization, the hectic atmosphere on the surgery day and the extremely long waiting time you have to spend on your check-ups appointments and on your surgery day. Do it elsewhere."

"I had a surgery at this clinic with Dr. Irit Bachar. The process was great and very professional from the first meeting to the last check. My eyes feel and see great as well. The quality, the service and the attitude were at the high level."

"I had my lasik procedure done at Assuta Optic last year. The entire process was simple, efficient, and seamless. The staff were kind and helpful and Dr. Andrew Fink was incredible. I am thankful everyday for the decision to do lasik and to do it with Assuta Optic. From my initial check up to confirm whether I was a candidate, everything progressed nicely. I was approved after a series of tests and right away scheduled my surgery for two weeks later. The day was uneventful, I showed up, was checked again, and then headed into the procedure. The whole thing was over in 10 minutes. They gifted me with a pair of sunglasses that have quickly become my favorite pair. I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner! The next day I returned for my check up and was in and out quickly. It’s been smooth sailing and I highly recommend Assuta Optic for anyone who wants to change their life and receive the gift of vision!"

"Great experience from this place. I've left a message on the website, and recieved a callback to book an appointment for a week later. When I've arrived to the appointment I've been asked to fill a form with my info and to wait for a doctor to call my name and they told me that the process take around 2-3 hours for all the check and that all this process is free. There was 4 stations in the process: First station - "The Corneal Topography" I've waited around 20 mins then entered the room where the doctor did the topography to my eyes, it took around 2-3 mins and then recieved the printed data in a case. Second station - "The Optometrist" I've waited around 30 mins to enter, the second doctor did a Perimety Test, it took around 10 mins and in the end she put some eye drops in my eyes and told me to come back to her within 30 mins to check again (the eye drops enlarged my pupils and made the eyes to be sensitive to light, it wares off around 24 hours after, so be ready to be with sunglasses), after the second check she sent me to the doctor. Third station - "The Doctor" I've waited around 5 mins then entered to his room and he checked my eyes with another machine then he explained me the kinds of the surgeries that they are doing and what fit for me (In my case it both of the surgeries was available) it took around 10 mins, then he sent me to the last station. Forth Station - "The Consultant" I've waited around 10 mins then she explained to me the prices of the surgeries and how to contact them to book the surgery. All the staff was nice and I got an answer for any questions I had. Going to book for a surgery, after the surgery will update this review. For now I'm very recommending this place."

"Had a biometric test prior to cataract surgery next month. Cannot praise the level of professionalism enough. Arrived very early for my appointment and the secretary on floor 7 went out of her way to find a technician to do the test much earlier than the appointment. A lovely technician called. Katya."
