IQ Laser Vision - Santa Clara

Santa Clara, CA

I recently had EVO ICL surgery here, and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish. The staff was friendly, professional, and took the time to answer all of my questions, which made me feel comfortable throughout the process. The procedure itself was much quicker than I expected, and the surgeon explained each step clearly. My vision improved almost immediately, and the follow up appointments have been thorough and reassuring. I’m very grateful to the entire team for their care and professionalism. If you’re considering vision correction, I would definitely recommend coming here for a consultation. Thank you for making this such a positive experience!

very experienced surgeon and friendly staffs helped my lasik went smoothly and easy. Thank you all

It has now been 3 weeks since I got my SMILE procedure done and I can't be happier with the results! I had done some "shopping around" before choosing IQ Laser, but ultimately went with them because they offered the best price and because …

Started on this journey beginning of December. I’ve been thinking of getting Lasik for years now and finally decided to do it! Did my consultation with Jacinta and after 2 other consultations with other vision center, I felt most comfortable with IQ. On the day of, everything went smoothly. I did have to wait 10-15 mins but not an issue. Ricky went over the eye drop medication before and he was super nice. Then I met with Dr. Phan to check my prescription again before the surgery (which definitely reassured me). I’m seeing 20/20 after one day after surgery. Can’t wait for my 1 week check up. I’m a little uncomfortable in my left eye but hoping it gets better! Overall a great experience with IQ Laser!

I NEVER leave reviews, but this company deserves one. I have worn contacts/glasses for 20+ years and I qualified for the SMILE procedure. Dr. Phan was absolutely incredible. He was extremely thorough with dialing in my prescription prior to …

My review is mixed because it was great until it wasn’t. The staff and doctors were great, SMILE itself went well. Overall if your experience ends there, you’ll have a 5/5 experience. However I had issues with blurry vision and while I appreciated them taking no time at all to see me to figure out the issue, the amount of effort was lackluster. I went down a total of 2-3x and they repeatedly gave me the vision exam where I had to read the words, and each time they proceeded to tell me I have perfect vision and there is nothing to correct. It was so frustrating like I’m being gaslighted I have no vision issues, despite not being able to see clearly, because I passed this test like as if this is the ONLY measure of vision. They also repeatedly tell me to just use eyedrops. That went on for 1-2 years until I went to see an ophthalmologist and it turns out - well there are other things you can do to treat the side effects of SMILE and LASIK, and there is more than just eye drops. If this place could not perform it, the least they could do was educate me on options on refer me to another ophthalmologist who can address it. So yea after 3 years, blurry vision is fixed. And I wish this clinic just sent me an away with a referral right from the start to another ophthalmologist who could do more than just ask me to read letters off a board. Since the doctor is the expert and side effects like dry eyes are pretty common, I wish they made more effort to actually fix the problem. And not try to troubleshoot it only within the limits of what their clinic is able to do. (Asking me to use eye drops)

I had LASIK surgery with Dr. Scott Hyver in 2016. One of the main reasons I chose his practice was because of the Extended Care Program, which gave me confidence that if my vision changed in the future, I would have access to enhancements. About two years ago (2024), I noticed my vision starting to decline and contacted the office to ask about an enhancement. I was told my vision hadn't changed enough to qualify yet and that I would need to wait. Fast forward to now, and my vision has continued to worsen - especially my distance vision - to the point where it has begun affecting my ability to drive safely. When I contacted the office again, I learned that Dr. Hyver had retired, but I was reassured that the Extended Care Program is still being honored for his former patients. The process, however, has been frustrating. I was first instructed to see my regular optometrist for an updated eye exam, and then I was scheduled for additional testing at IQ Vision, which I had to pay for out of pocket. I'm not sure why these tests aren't covered under the Extended Care Program, especially since they're required to determine eligibility for an enhancement. I also didn't feel that the subjective refraction performed during my visit today accurately reflected my true prescription. At the end of the appointment, I was told that I might not qualify for an enhancement at all, or that they might only recommend treating one eye. While my left eye is noticeably worse, both eyes have declined since my original surgery, and correcting only one eye would still leave me struggling with the other. It's disappointing to have paid for additional testing without knowing whether I'll actually receive the enhancement that was a key reason I chose this practice in the first place. I sincerely hope this isn't a process where former patients are required to pay for evaluations only to be told they don't qualify. I'll update my review once I know the surgeon's final recommendation. Overall, the customer service has been good. My only negative interaction was when I was leaving after my appointment. Although the staff had already confirmed that I had paid, the front desk employee appeared skeptical and wanted to verify it again while I waited, which felt a bit uncomfortable. Overall: I'm reserving final judgment until I hear the surgeon's recommendation, but so far the experience has been a bit disappointing and costly than I expected, especially given the promises of the Extended Care Program that influenced my decision to have LASIK at Scott Hyver's practice.

I usually wear two pairs of glasses because of my vision problems, and I’ve always struggled to see clearly—especially when playing sports. I do over eight different sports and love being outdoors, but it was hard to even see my teammates sometimes. When I visited this clinic, I was blown away by how professional, friendly, and caring everyone was. The staff, the doctors, and especially Dr. Angel were all amazing! The service was outstanding from start to finish. The next day, I went to San Francisco for a check-up, and afterward, I walked around the city—and for the first time in so long, I could actually see everything clearly. I started crying tears of joy. I’ve been hiking and skiing for years without being able to truly enjoy the view, and now I finally can. From the bottom of my heart, thank you to everyone at the Santa Clara and Daly City offices. You didn’t just make my day—you changed my life. I know you’ll do the same for many others.

The whole staff was exceptional. They made me feel very taken care of as they have multiple people handling different parts of the process from taking initial exams, going over logistics, prep, surgery, and recovery. Dr. Phan was able to …

This place said they do sedation, then day of, did NO sedation!!!!! They want as many surgeries done as possible in one day and care ZERO about the patient!! Nobody cared there about anything. I’d give zero stars if I could:(

I’m not going to lie, I was super nervous but the quality of care and comfort from all the staff was amazing, from start to finish & the day of the surgery could not have went any better, after speaking with the dr I felt so at ease. My vision is better than ever & happy to say, NO MORE GLASSES !! Thank you IQ Lasik

There’s a reason this place consistently gets 5 stars reviews - their staff is incredibly friendly, patient, and professional, and people get the results they want. I had a good time interacting with everybody from the consultant to the …

I recently had my procedure on 3/25/24. Due to my high prescription, I was only qualified for EVO ICL. This procedure requires a lens to be inserted in your eye. The benefits of this procedure is that you do not get dry eyes and it has UV protection! I've never heard of this procedure, but apparently it's been around for many years. The doctor that did my procedure was Dr. Lin. From what I've remembered, he's the best in the country. The office is clean and has a very calm vibe to it. All the workers were very friendly and helpful. My consultation went smoothly. The person doing my consultation answered all my questions and I left very confident and excited for my procedure. The day of the procedure, I was more excited than nervous. They gave me some medications that would help you with anxiety or nervousness. The procedure was quick. Dr. Lin was very friendly. I was told the procedure would take about 30 mins, 15 mins per eye, but it felt like it was only 5-10 mins per eye. The procedure was done and they provided me with clear post care instructions. I also had several friends go here for lasik. 10/10 would recommend! I am so happy to be able to wake up with clear vision and not worry about contact lens or my glasses anymore!

From the initial consultation to surgery to post-op appointments, I've been thoroughly impressed by the IQ Laser Vision staff! I came in hesitant but hopeful, in search of freedom from my -8.5 vision with high astigmatism. Last year, my eyes started rejecting contacts--every time I wore them I was faced with redness, inflammation, and unbearable dryness. I was on rounds of steroid and antibiotic drops and was stuck in glasses for 8+ months. With such a high prescription, it was a pain to continue with my normal activities as glasses are heavy and my vision was warped. After my consultation with one of their doctors, they determined ICL would be best. I decided to meet with Dr. Lin on Zoom beforehand and he was very knowledgable and gave me confidence that the surgery would go well despite my unique circumstances. I had gone to another clinic as well, but in the end chose IQ Laser Vision because of Dr. Lin's experience and because they use the latest technology with the ArcScan--getting the most precise measurements for the lens to fit the eyes. This ended up being crucial for me since my left eye was slightly smaller than my right and they used different size lenses to accommodate them. The surgery itself felt quicker than I had thought it would be. Dr. Lin was calm, kind, and reassuring. It was painless and recovery has been so easy. I'm on day 4 post-surgery and am already seeing 20/20. It's incredible and so life changing as someone who's been in glasses since I was 5 years old. My husband was able to watch the surgery and was impressed by Dr. Lin's steady hands. I am so glad I chose IQ Laser Vision and Dr. Lin!

I did SMILE surgery with Dr. Phan last year, and it was an overall great experience. I was a bit anxious, but Dr. Phan’s approach immediately put me at ease. The procedure itself felt not quick for me but it was manageable. I experienced some dryness during the first few weeks, but my recovery has been smooth overall. The staff and doctors are professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly reassuring throughout the entire process. All my pre-operative check-ups and post-operative appointments were thorough and handled with great care. The clinic is clean, modern, and well-equipped, which made me feel confident and comfortable. I’m very happy with the results and would recommend this clinic to anyone considering LASIK or SMILE surgery!

tl;dr: The EVO ICL procedure with Dr. Lin at IQ Laser Vision Santa Clara was nothing short of a life-changing miracle for me! The procedure was fast, easy, and painless. I was already seeing 20/20 at 1-day post-op. I would highly recommend …

I had an amazing experience with ScottHyver Visioncare and couldn’t be happier with the results. Dr. Lin was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and personable. He took the time to answer all my questions and made me feel completely at ease, especially when I was feeling anxious before the procedure. The staff were also great. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and very accommodating. They even helped coordinate my appointments so that my partner and I, who were both getting LASIK, could be scheduled back to back, which made the whole process so much more convenient. The recovery was smoother than I ever expected. By the very next day, I felt great with no pain at all and my vision was already incredibly clear. Both my partner and I can now see 20/15, and it honestly feels life-changing. We are so grateful for the entire team and would highly recommend to anyone considering LASIK!

I had EVO ICL surgery with Dr. Lin last week, and I’m now seeing 20/20. Although there is still a slight astigmatism in my left eye, it doesn’t affect my daily activities. I can finally see clearly without glasses or contact lenses. Before the surgery, I did extensive research because I wanted the best doctor for the procedure—and Dr. Lin is truly one of the best in the country. Every step of the process was smooth and exceptional—from the initial consultation and multiple rounds of eye exams and measurements to the surgery and post-operative care. Dr. Lin and his team were thorough, professional, and reassuring throughout the entire journey. I was very nervous on the day of surgery, but the procedure was quicker and more comfortable than I expected. I only felt some mild pressure during the operation, and before I knew it, it was done. I’m incredibly grateful I chose Dr. Lin for this life-changing experience.

I am so happy I went with IQ Laser Vision for my SMILE surgery! Since I don't have much flexibility for time off work, I was specifically looking for a clinic that could handle a "same-day" process, and they made it happen. The whole experience was incredibly smooth. Terry reached out a week beforehand for a virtual consult to walk me through the procedure and pricing. He was super transparent with the cost breakdown and made sure I was getting the best value. He even arranged for me to pick up my pre-op instructions and eye drops early so I’d be 100% ready for the big day. I ended up going to the Daly City location to fit their surgery schedule, so I just had to make sure I planned out my ride accordingly. On the day of, the consultation was very thorough. Honestly, the vision tests felt even more rigorous than my regular optometrist appointments (they had me reading very tiny letters and I had a hard time- but I guess that’s good they were being as precise as possible). I was cleared for surgery soon after and they were even able to move my procedure time up, which was a nice bonus. Dr. Barrion was awesome. You can tell she has a ton of experience, and she walked me through exactly what to expect right before we started. Eye surgery can definitely feel a bit scary, but her reassuring tone kept me feeling pretty calm and safe throughout. It was not painful at all. The whole thing was done in about 10 minutes! As for the recovery, I was required to close my eyes for at least 4 hours immediately after getting home. It was a bit uncomfortable but overall tolerable, and the eye drops really helped. The turnaround was so quick that I was actually back at work the next day. My vision fluctuated a little during the first week, but it was still way better than my original eyesight. At my 5-day post-op visit, I was already seeing 20/15 in one eye and the other is nearly 20/20! I haven't had any dry eye symptoms, and while there’s still some slight haziness around bright lights, the team assured me that should fully stabilize in a few months. It’s already been such a massive improvement in my daily life. My only wish is that I did it sooner. Totally worth it!

Did SMILE for both eyes last Friday. On the day, the eyes are very blury, went straight home and slept for 14 hours! That's my best sleep for many years. The second day, I feel like my eyesight had recovered for 80％ already. It's 4th day now, other than a few times a day, my eyes gets confused about focus, they feel very normal. Dr Phan is really good on it!

Terrible Experience with the guy named Patrick. He strongly pushed for a $200 deposit after I clearly stated I needed more time …

I first came across IQ Laser Vision from a friend who had a successful LASIK procedure done by them. …

I got EVO ICL surgery with Dr. Lin last Wednesday, and the whole experience was fantastic. The staff was incredibly friendly and organized, guiding me through every step — from initial exams to logistics, prep, and post-surgery recovery — with clear, thorough explanations. The procedure itself was calm and seamless, and everything felt smooth from start to finish. Now, I can see perfectly, and I absolutely love my new vision. If you’re considering vision correction, I highly recommend Dr. Lin and the team. They are efficient, professional, and truly know what they’re doing!

There’s a reason this place consistently gets 5 stars reviews - their staff is incredibly friendly, patient, and professional, and people get the results they want. I had a good time interacting with everybody from the consultant to the office staff to the doctors. I got SMILE and the procedure was as quick and painless as I expected. It was a little scary of course but Dr. Pham was super calming and made the procedure feel easy. Within 24 hours of the procedure I felt that my vision recovered to 20/20 if not better. 3 days later, I was embarrassingly late to my post-op visit (and arrived after their office hours) due to heavy traffic. Because I was flying out the same night rescheduling would’ve been quite difficult. Despite it being entirely my fault, the office still decided to wait for me, and Dr. Wu who saw me after hours was incredibly understanding and efficient. (Sorry again for making you stay late!) All in, I whole heartedly recommend this place. I think it’s run by good people who care about their patients.

I was initially hesitant because the office was quite a drive away for me but their standard of care and professionalism was far above anywhere else. They have it down. Every one that works there seems to happy. I also appreciate that they accommodated my schedule and the long drive by still seeing me if I was early or late to the appointment. Just do it!

The best investment I’ve ever made!! So amazing to wake up every morning and see! No glasses no contacts!!! IQ Laser Vision -Cupertino took great care of me. Their staff is amazing! …

I had my smile procedure a week ago and couldn’t be happier with the experience. I traveled from out of state, and Christine was incredibly helpful—guiding me through everything before I even arrived. The procedure itself was quick and painless, with only some pressure but no discomfort. Dr. Phan was so professional, I felt like he really took care of me. My vision is still slightly blurry at times, but I was told that’s normal and should improve. Overall, I’m thrilled I went through with it and excited to see how it continues to change my life.

The entire staff was extremely informative, helpful, caring, and they made this experience unforgettable. After years of waiting and contemplating where to get my procedure, I am glad I chose to go with IQ Laser Vision. This place is a …

My last day of wearing glasses after I have been wearing over 10 years. I decided to do ReLEx SMILE. It doesn’t hurt at all! I did with IQ Laser Vision- Santa Clara. I highly recommend!

I had a positive experience all the way with IQ Laser Vision San Jose's office for my SMILE procedure. Thanks to Dr. Phan and his staff, I am now free from contacts and glasses! …

I’m making this post more than a year after my wife had her SMILE procedure here with IQ Laser Vision. Don’t know what took me so long, because we have had such an amazing experience so far and the team here has both offered amazing care and the results have been amazing! I had suggested to my wife that she get laser eye surgery after having had LASIK myself over a decade ago. Let me tell you…. technology has gotten so much better! My wife was lucky. Also, my wife was very scared and nervous, and the staff and surgeon was very good at helping her feel comfortable at all stages. We opted for SMILE, which was more expensive than LASIK, because of the quick recovery time and it being minimally invasive. SMILE doesn’t require that a full flap be cut from your cornea, so you also typically experience less eye dryness and halo after the procedure, which are things that I definitely had to deal with many years ago with my own operation. Waiting has been a common thing for a lot of medical appointments in the pandemic, and this place is no different. So expect some delays for appointments and come prepared with a book 📕 or things to do on your phone 📱. One story that I’ll never forget…. on the day of our surgery, another patient actually had taken something to calm herself for her eye surgery, and ended up fainting. I saw first hand the whole staff jump into action and take the most amazing care for her. They let her take up an entire room and lay down, kept checking her blood pressure, and gave her some fluids and snacks to make sure she was fully recovered quickly. She did end up getting her surgery that day too! 👍🏽 Overall, I’m glad that my wife and I chose this clinic to have our surgery.

I have been wearing contacts every single day for years. It slowly became a hassle overtime, and I started exploring the possibility of completing SMLE. I was very hesitant at first, but Christine, my counselor, provided me with all the necessary information and was very communicative throughout the process which helped ease my worries. Dr. Phan was my surgeon, and he was very calm and professional on the day of the surgery. Overall, I had an amazing experience with Dr. Phan and Christine. I am also very happy with my results. I now wake up everyday and can see clearly without my contacts or glasses.
