Cannot recommend Dr Coad & his lasik coordinator Nicole enough. They are wonderfully supportive and gentle that even if you are nervous it will be difficult to stay that way around this supportive duo! Without a doubt recommend going to see them, they are worth the additional care and cost for a full-service experience that are there just to help you & give you the best vision possible. Thank you Dr Coad & Nicole.

Dr. Coad and Nicole made my experience literally flawless. Not one single misstep from diagnosis to post op. It was obvious that the team has considered every step in the patient journey and optimized for efficiency and comfort. My surgery was quick and had minimally discomfort. Recovery was quick and my eyesight is now beyond incredible. I can't say enough--I rave to my friends who are looking into lasik that they must check Chelsea Eye. I'm thrilled with the total outcome. 

Business response:

Dear Matthew, We are thrilled to know how happy you are with your LASIK surgery! It was our pleasure to take care of you and your eyes. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us!

I have been going to Chelsea Eye for a couple of years after my former Dr. failed repeatedly to get my prescription right. They have sophisticated equipment and a staff that knows how to use it, and they got it right the first time. This year, I had to switch to an insurance they don't take. But I have other eye issues, and when it was time for my full eye exam, I decided to pay out of pocket ($225) because I'd had such a good experience. I had the exam with the O.D. who recommended I see Dr. Coad about cataract surgery. Th... read more

I am a tourist, and having pink eyes during vacation is an unfortunate. Although I went to a different address under there network, the staff was so kind to squeeze me in for a check up. All doctors was welcomed and carefully explained my medication. When the doctor knew I was tourist, he was too generous to give me a gratuitous checkup. Thank you

Can I please take a moment and talk about how awesome Dr. Jay Yoon is?! I would be friends with this woman! I went in freaked out about a blood vessel on my eye and in total hypochondriac mode (is it a stroke? Is this connected to my brain? Is it gonna spread?). She laughed and calmly said "looks like you've always had this and it's fine and here are some drops cause your eyes are dry and here's my great primary doctor who I recommend since you don't have one." She was very funny and relatable and cool - she didn't try to ru... read more

I don't usually post reviews, but I feel compelled to post this one. I have been a patient of Dr. Coad's for over 15 years and have frequently recomended him to those in search of a great eye doctor. Today I went for my post-op visit after my second cataract surgery in two weeks (I had surgery on both eyes), and the results are nothing short of miraculous. Dr. Coad recommended and implanted the Symfony lens, which has allowed me to dump the glasses I've been wearing for 25 years. For the most part, I'm seeing as well as I di... read more

I highly recommend Chelsea Eye Ophthalmology! Dr. Coad and his staff are amazing. They deliver the ultimate in professionalism. Such a kind and caring group that makes you feel right at home. Dr. Coad performed a double lens replacement using the Symphony Lens and I now have zero cataracts and 20/20 vision. I feel like a kid again. At 63 that's a major accomplishment! Thanks Dr. Coad and staff. See you at my next follow up!!!

BJ E, thank you so much for your wonderful review! We really appreciate your kind words!

I would give Chelsea Eye Ophthalmology 10 stars if I could. I just got LASIK there after wearing glasses and contacts for 35 years and I couldn't be happier with the results. Dr. Coad and his LASIK coordinator, Nicole, were thoughtful, kind and very thorough. I was evaluated, measured and tested not once but twice to make sure that I was an ideal candidate for the procedure. They walked me through every step and answered every question that I had. I was very concerned because my eyesight had been so bad for so long (nearsigh... read more

Elizabeth and Dr. Coade were incredible. I was terrified to get Lasik, and the two of them made it easy! They were comforting, professional and accommodating. I was seeing 20/20 on my one week post-op follow up visit... highly recommend!

Liza, thank you for your kind words!
