Dr. Samir Melki MD

I had an ICL procedure with Dr. Melki last week and it went basically perfectly. though it may seem anxiety-inducing to many, the procedure lasted only around 20-30 minutes and was nearly painless. The staff were clearly knowledgeable and very helpful. So far, I've landed on a 20/25 vision, which is a major improvement over what it was prior. I am very thankful for Boston Vision and their whole team for their care and help. My vision is still blurry but we believe it will subside soon

A few minutes after I arrived, I was brought into a room and given eye drops to expand my cornea and numb the eyes. The doctor came in to verify the distance that I would like to have in both eyes, then I waited for the drops to take place. In the operating room, they shined a very bright light in my eye and told me to look at it. The procedure was uncomfortable, but there was little pain. I'm also very squeamish so I'm sure I didn't make it easy for them. Each eye only took a few minutes and I was out very quickly. Although initially I couldn't see out ...

I had ICL surgery at Boston Vision on February 5, 2025, and chose Dr. Melki as my surgeon. Before the procedure, my pupils were dilated and I was given a sedative. After waiting for about 30 minutes, the surgery began. The entire process was quick, taking only a few minutes per eye. During the procedure, I had to focus on a light, which felt very bright and uncomfortable due to the dilation. When the lens was placed in my eye, I felt some pressure and discomfort, but no pain. On the day of the surgery, my eyes were extremely sensitive to light because ...

My experience with Boston Vision exceeded my expectations. Everyone I encountered throughout the process was kind and helpful and were always ready to assist me in any way they could. The team addressed any concerns or questions I had pre and post op and I knew they would be easily accessible if I had questions after hours. Dr. Melki and the team made me feel very comfortable the day of my surgery. I knew I was in good hands. I am very happy with the outcome. My recovery has been easy, straightforward and painless

I had a great experience with my operation. I've worn glasses for 28 yrs and contacts for 6yrs. Finally made the decision to get LASIK after thinking and talking about it for years. On the day of operation, they were very informative of what steps they were taking from keeping my eyes open, to applying water. They never surprised me throughout the procedure. As of now, I'm a week after surgery and haven't experienced any pain or dry eyes and I can now see distance without corrective lens.
