I am forever grateful and thankful to the staff at Park Avenue LASEK and Dr.Chynn for making it possible for me to get LASEK and for the amazing job that was done for me. I had a smooth recovery with nearly no pain. I am seeing well and enjoying my new eyes!. I am still amazed at the ease of the procedure and the technology. I’m grateful to work with such a wonderful team on this journey.

Dr. C. is able to correct extreme astigmatism with LASEK where LASIK cannot. Dr. C. did a great job with the LASEK and helped me greatly improve my vision.

I wish I got the surgery done years ago. Dr. Chynn is the master of Lasek!!! Staff are super friendly and nice! Would recommend anyone who wants to get rid of glasses and contacts!

Dr. Chynn is efficient and moreover, very good at what he does. One month post op and I have 20/20 vision, better than I saw with glasses. Instructions seem dense at first, and the recover period is intensive, but the results are well worth it.

I am so glad I found out about Park Avenue Lasik! Everyone is so friendly and very honest with the procedure the price and the process. I just had my Lasek surgery last July 9.2021 and it is one of the best day of my life! I have a prescription of -13.25 (300 astigmatism) for my left eye and -9.50 (275 astigmatism) on my right eye. and I just had my post op today (July 15) and my vision is now 20/40 and the doctor said it will progress as months pass by. I have been wearing eyeglasses/contact lenses since I was 5 and now It’s so sureal it’s not yet even sinking in! I hope everyone knows about Epi-Lasek, I am in awe why this procedure is still not popular!

Been going here for a few months now and have had excellent results. I no longer need glasses at all to see from afar. Im able to see just as good and better than when I wore glasses. The service and people who work at the office are friendly make sure youre on top of your treatment. I would highly reccomend if you no longer want to wear prescription glasses.

This place is very unprofessional, unorganized, & dirty. Not sanitary at all doctor did not wipe anything down when doing testing on me. Staff was talking about patient (me) in an unprofessional way on FaceTime like i couldn’t hear her right next door. Would NOT recommend. Please save your time & money. The staff are not knowledgeable & the Doctor doesn’t even know what he’s talking about, inaccurate.Reviews are fake, Please be aware!

I was a patient here and I honestly enjoyed the experience. I got LASEK because it was clearly the best option out there. Its the safest, and doesnt have any of the permanent sideffects that LASIK has. And the procedure doesnt involve any cutting (NO FLAPS, and NO FLAP COMPLICATIONS). This is something that makes Park Avenue LASEK stand out, because they dont do ANY cutting procedures. Its clear that they take pride and effort in being one of a kind. They had a fully glass operating room, and even encouraged me to bring a companion with me to watch the procedure. They also made a group chat with me and all of the doctors so I could ask my questions whenever I want!! Dr. Chynn is a great surgeon and was always very respectful when talking to me. He did get a bit strict with his staff, especially one of the doctors there (Dr. Dovzhuk). But I really appreciated that because hes clearly just trying to get the best out of them by becoming more perfectionistic. Plus, wouldnt you want a perfectionist doctor working on your eyes?

Dr Chynn is very straight forward, knowledgeable man. He’s a genius he doesnt think like us. Dr Chynn is very direct and straight to the point, true New Yorker, he does not sugar coat things. At first I did not understand, Dr Chynn always takes the time to break down the procedure and how the eyes work

Just had my LASEK surgery about a week ago. I had a -5 with astigmatism prescription and I’m seeing better already. I chose Park Avenue LASEK because they’re 100% non-cutting so it’s so much safer than LASIK. I’m so glad I got it. The staff is great and I can ask them any questions I want anytime I want through WhatsApp.

Lasek is noncut and much safer procedure. I choose to do it because I do boxing/sparing. I have compared different laser procedure for a long time and I believe people who engage in contact sports should really choose Lasek

Review №15

Do not go to Park Avenue Lasek. These reviews are fake - they give you a discount to give them five stars and to write a positive review. Not sure how incentivizing patients like that is legal as it biases the whole review process. Also, they have a dog inside which seems pretty unhygienic.

Review №16

I am three months post op and my vision went from 20/400 to 20/15 without glasses or contacts. The procedure itself was fast with minimal discomfort. My vision improved immediately after the procedure and has progressively gotten even better over the three months. The best part for me was that this procedure did not cut a flap into my eye. If you’re looking to get your vision corrected, you will not want to go anywhere else!

Review №17

I came to this place because it is different from the typical lasik everyone is familiar with. There is NO cutting into your eye, and so all the complications you hear about are virtually eliminated. The LASEK (different from lasik) procedure I got has been successful and I have already been diagnosed with 20/20 vision after 6 days post op. My recovery period was about 3/4 days and I experienced zero pain in this time. I highly recommend to get LASEK as it is safer and will get you the results you are looking for.

Great service and very good doctors! They scheduled me in for an emergency consult and helped me right away.I also got LASEK in 2017 and improved my vision from -6 to 20/15! No side effects since then and its the best personal investment Ive made. Dr. Chynn is top notch in his field!

Just had my LASEK procedure done a month ago even after being diagnosed with kertaconus and now Im seeing 20/30 which is better than i expected. Dr. Chynn is the best surgeon to perform this surgery since he himself invented it ar Harvard. I am so happy with the way my vision is improving and hope everyone can have the chance to see the way i do or even better.

Review №23

Prior to surgery, I was -4.00 and -4.25 with mild astigmatism in both eyes. I had wanted eye surgery for some time, but was worried about complications like dry eyes, halos, flap-related complications, and the like. I chose to get Lasek because its a newer, safe, non-cutting version of Lasik. After getting surgery a week ago, Im already seeing significantly better and Im happy going about my day without glasses and contacts; I no longer have to be annoyed about little things like my glasses fogging up. Im excited for my eyes to continue getting even better- thank you to everyone at Park Avenue Lasek!

Just got my LASEK procedure done a week ago and I’m already seeing 20/20! Dr. Chynn has done over 25,000 LASEK surgeries and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my eyes, especially after inventing the LASEK procedure himself. Here’s to a life without glasses!

So excited to be finished with my LASEK procedure at Park Avenue LASEK. Dr. Chynn is a expert in LASEK, the newer, no cutting version of LASIK. I had a prescription of -8 and was able to see right after my surgery. I am so excited to get back to Surfing!

**DISGUSTING** Read on:Please see the screenshots of a listing posted by the owner to work for this medical practice.**I do not work for, will never work for, have never worked/nor interviewed for, and would never wish this “medical practice” upon anyone—patient or employee.** I simply came across the job posting, and have never felt so disturbed by what I read. If you are considering becoming a potential patient, read the listing, and make your own informed decision.

Got the LASEK non-cutting procedure, safer than LASIK, and doesnt cause DES or night vision problems. Dr. Chynn is a three ivy league graduate, where he invented the LASEK procedure during his residency at Harvard, and is the best at laser corrective surgery.

DO NOT TRUST 5 START REVIEWS. THEY ARE FAKE. THEY ASK PATIENTS TO PUT 5 STAR REVIEW BEFORE PROCEDURE IN EXCHANGE OF DISCOUNTS/EYE DROPS.PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND FILLTER 1 STAR REVIEWS AND READ. THEY ARE THE MOST ACCURATE ONES.AVOID AT ALL COST:- FAKE REVIEWS- UNHYGIENIC: DR. DOG RUNS ALL AROUND THE FACILITY INCLUDING SURGERY ROOM.- DR.

Review №35

I just committed to my LASEK surgery after shopping for 3 months because LASEK has exactly what I was looking for. I have a high prescription of -11 and the only other option I had was ILC, which is more dangerous and invasive. LASEK is a safer non cutting procedure than LASIK and treats high prescriptions like mine. Dr. Chynn answered all my questions/concerns and will continue to answer all of my questions 24/7/365. I just came in for my free consultation and am already booking my surgery for the end of the week!

I found Park Avenue Lasek through searching the google search term, “ lazy eye corrective surgery. “ Doctor Chynn was amazing and I was able to trust him to correct my extreme prescription that no other doctor could correct. My prescription is -16 and now I am seeing 20/200 which is a drastic improvement from hand motions. Thank you Park Avenue Lasek, Dr. Chynn, and his friendly staff! Sam, the patient coordinator was great!

I had my procedure performed on 9/20/19. The care prior to, up to and after the procedure have been great. Dr. Chynn is extremely knowledgeable and open to making you a part of the process, answering questions and making himself available via WhatsApp to address any issues/inquiries. I am very satisfied with my treatment and would recommend this to anyone that doesn’t want to be cut or has been turned away for similar procedures.

Lasek is newer safe non-cutting version of LASIK. I’m a professional driver so my vision is critical. My initial prescription was -3.75 with astigmatism , my night vision was very bad at night and had to wear contacts that bothered my eyes while driving clients. I chose Dr Chynn because he is so punctual and detailed. I’m already seeing 20/20 one week out from my procedure. I’m so grateful to see these result and drive with much more confidence. I highly recommend!!!

I love the results of my LASEK surgery. Dr.Chynn fixed my vision (-3.5) and I can now do activities without my glasses bothering me. I’ve always wanted to fix my vision but felt now was the time because I’m always wearing my mask. Now when I go to the gym I don’t have glasses that fog up. Dr. Chynn and his staff made me feel safe throughout the whole LASEK procedure. Thanks!

Dr. Emil Chynn and staff were incredibly responsive literally 24/7 and on weekends to the WhatsApp group during pre-op and post-op to answer any questions or concerns that arose regarding my LASEK procedure. So glad I decided to do LASEK with Dr. Chynn. If you are considering LASEK, Dr. Chynn is the only surgeon for you. Thank you Dr. Chynn for making this whole process painless and easy!

I found Dr. Chynn after diagnosed with KC. After thoroughly checking my eyes he determined that Cross Linking only would suffice for correcting my diagnosis as well as bettering my vision. One month after the procedure I am seeing better than ever. Dr. Chynn and his team not only accepted my insurance but they were available for any questions I had at anytime through out the process. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a qualified ophthalmologist.

LASEK is the newer, easier, safe and fantastic non-cutting version of LASIK. Before the procedure my vision was -5.5 and i was nearsighted. I chose Dr Chynn & Park Avenue LASEK because they are the best hands down. Im most happy doing photography post-op. I see the world differently now with my 20/15 vision. My life has changed for the better and yours can too!

LASEK is a newer, safe ,non-cutting version of LASIK that Dr. help invent when he was at Harvard, that he’s performed more LASEKs than any other surgeon in the US, he’s been on Discovery channel &The NY Times, my mom has taken LASEK surgery over 11 years ago and encouraged me to do it cause I had really bad eye sight. After LASEK I enjoy driving and without glasses it’s not much of a problem with a face mask anymore. THANK YOU SO MUCH TO PARK AVE LASEK AND ALL THE LOVING AND FRIENDLY WORKERS :)

I had been wearing glasses for years and finally decided to make the jump to get LASEK, a newer, safe, non cutting procedure of LASIK. I was -6.5 on the right eye and -7.5 on the left eye, and within just a week Ive seen massive improvement. Thank you so much the Dr. Chynn and the Park Avenue LASEK team.

Dr. Chynn is a highly qualified and empathetic professional. I came in for a free consultation and his whole team was so welcoming, friendly and genuine. I decided to go ahead and schedule surgery with Dr. Chynn and even put down a $500 deposit which is normally non refundable. Unfortunately my father passed away due to COVID. Dr. Chynn was more than generous and empathetic be he refunded me $1,000, double the deposit I paid!!! I will definitely be scheduling a visit with him in the future and I would recommend anyone who values their eyes and their health to place it in the care of a loving and wonderful team at Park Avenue LASEK

Ive been thinking of getting my eyes corrected for quite some time as it is a neverending bother while working. It wasnt until I learned of Dr. Chynns LASEK Procedure that I felt confident in going getting it done. The staff is very joyful and knowledgeable, making the pre-op a warm experience. As for Dr. Chynn, he is down to earth and most importantly, an expert in what he does. I have recommended my wife to get the procedure and will recommend Park Avenue LASEK Vision to anyone. Thank you Dr. D, Rob, Stoli, and of course Dr. C for this phenomenal experience. I look forward to seeing the beauty of life through my new eyes.

Review №66

Hi, my name is Harriet and I am a dog groomer. I came in to Park Avenue Lasek a few weeks ago to see if Im a candidate. I came in prepared for the worst because of some of the 1 star reviews I read. When I came in, I was greeted warmly by the staff and I found Dr Chynn to be very informative. The best part of the experience was the dog. I work with all kinds of dogs in my line of work and I thought Tolstoy was the most well behaved good boy. He didnt bark and mostly just laid there on the couch, he wasnt wild at all. I was concerned that the operating room might be dirty because of this but thats not the case at all. The OR is separated by doors and is very clean inside. In some ways, Tolstoy is a therapy dog meant to make people feel more comfortable. Anyway, I had a great experience at Park Avenue Lasek and Ill be getting my surgery in May.

Review №67

I was honestly looking forward to meet with Dr. Chynn about LASEK but my experience with a rude an unprofessional receptionist made me reconsider.When I called the office to cancel my appointment because I wished to schedule a time later in the year, the receptionist was very aggressive and pushy, like a used car salesmen, to get me scheduled DURING OUR CALL. I had to argue with him since I did not want the conversation to drag on longer than needed and when this was finally clear to him, he abruptly goes ok and hangs up. I was not sure if I had heard him correctly so when I called back to confirm the cancellation, he blamed a bad connection for the call disconnect -- had the most uncomfortable and unprofessional experience with the receptionist.

I’ve worn glasses since the first grade and contacts since age 16. I was a little apprehensive as a surgeon myself but got my vision corrected by Dr. Chynn 5 weeks ago. I’m 20/20 vision (immediately) and have no more dry eyes!!! I was told by other places I was a bad candidate as I had a very high prescription as well as astigmatism.

My husband had a LASEK done yesterday at this place. Honestly, I was nervous more than him. But right from the first appointment, we felt very welcomed and comfortable. The staff is amazing and helpful (who else would provide you with personal cell phones?!), the doctor has tons of experience (not even one negative review!), and the procedure done fast and safe. Its only the first day after the LASEK but my husband feeling great, nothing bothers him, the vision is already better than was originally and only going to improve within next week. I am really grateful! Thank you guys for everything. You did exactly what we needed at the moment of serious decision in life!

Review №78

I had a good experience at Park Avenue LASEK.Dr Chynn fixed my eyes after 25yrs of not being able to see in showers, during swims, on rollercoaster rides and when waking up in the middle of the night being unable to tell if a pile of clothes was an intruder.The office is unique, as you will get to experience complete strangers watching your surgery through a glass window on street level like a tattoo shop. While this may seem unusual, even sketchy, I soon realized the benefits of this - it not only allows the public to see that this surgery is not scary or dangerous, but adds a level of accountability to the Dr Chynn and gives you the shortest distance to be walked out of the office by your companion once you are blinded post- surgery. Its also free advertising - something Dr Chynn loves and you will be strongly encouraged to provide through social media posts and, uh, yelp reviews.Healing from LASEK is no joke. Be prepared to sleep for the first 3 days after surgery as you wont be allowed to open your eyes anyway, followed by another 2 weeks of dry itchy pain where you question your life choices and pretend that you arent terrified you made a mistake and blinded yourself permanently. Slowly, things come into focus (literary) and you can finally see.Dr Chynn isnt the warmest man Ive ever met, but he doesnt need to be. Hes there to provide a service which he does well. His bedside manner and curtness with his staff is their own business, Im assuming they are there of their own free will and can quit/leave if they desire to do so. This being said the staff are welcoming, attentive and kind, even if they are also following the script of pushing you for free advertising through Yelp reviews (like this one) in exchange for discounts, and are extremely pushy at your initial appointment. My experiences with elective surgery have all been similar to this - a free consultation isnt exactly free, theyre hoping to make a customer of you, not just provide free evaluations out of the kindness of their hearts. This is annoying but expected.I recommend this business, because Im typing this 3 weeks post op without glasses and thats what I paid for. My eyes get better every day, and are already back to where they were with my glasses. They are still dry and easily irritated, but its my understanding this is normal for all PKR/LASIK/LASEK surgery since I paid a man to melt off the outer coating of my eyes then shoot a laser into them only 3 weeks ago.I was scared but Im glad I did this.

I had non cutting safer lasek about 2 months ago and my eyesight is 20/15 already , better than 2020. Coming into this I didn’t know which lasek surgery I wanted. But I’m glad I came here. The people who work here are very nice. I asked a lot of questions and this guy basically told me everything about how it works. And I was very Intrigued. The process only took about 1 minute each eye.

This was the best decision Ive ever made to start 2021! Ive been wearing glasses since middle school and have always wanted to be free of them as I became an adult.(Trust me one time I was hit in the face with a volleyball and my glasses didnt protect me 🥺)I wanted to start making 2021 my year and to start my glasses had to go!I found Dr. Chynn online, watched a few of his interviews on his eye corrective Lasek procedure (not to be confused with Lasik). After my consultation with Dr. Chynn and his staff I was ready! They gave me the confidence and assurance that I was in great hands.I did the procedure 2/4/2021. I was nervous but excited! Dr.Chynn was amazing during the whole procedure. His bedside manner kept me calm and relaxed during the whole procedure (which I couldnt believe was a quick surgery!).Dr.Chynn and his team gave me all the instructions I needed to follow until my 7 day post op. By day 4, when I can open my eyes for a short amount of time, I couldnt believe how clear I could see from far away!My post op went well! My cornea healed well and now as I continue the steps Dr.Chynn and his team left for me, Im excited in a just a few short weeks my vision will be 20/20!!2021 is my YEAR! THANK YOU DR.CHYNN 😊!!

I had Non Cutting (no flap) Lasek with an E (NOT Lasik) with Dr Chynn on 1/30/2020. I had a severe prescription of -8, lazy eye( amblyopia) and astigmatism. I have been turned down for lasik 6 times in the last 15 years. I am so grateful that I found this competent Doctor. He corrected my eyes to see even better than I did with glasses/contacts. I do not have dry eye or night glare. The surgery was quick and painless. The staff are all very knowledgeable. If you have a severe RX and have been turned down for lasik like me...go to Dr. CHYNN he will change your life with the gift of vision. His prices are fixed and affordable as well. No gimmicks or surprise fees. Thank you Dr Chynn and all the staff at Park Avenue Lasek. 😍

LASEK is a newer, safer, non-cutting version of LASEK that I felt more comfortable with when searching for the best way to correct my vision. The office shared that Dr. Chynn helped invent LASEK and has performed more LASEKs than any other surgeon in the UsS (another reason I felt comfortable). Now, I can wake up and enjoy the sunrise without reaching or searching for my glasses. I’ve been able to swim in the pool without worrying that my eyes get dried while wearing my contacts. I was recommended by a friend who initially wanted to get LASIK but they told her she didn’t qualify and Dr. Chynn was the only one who assisted her needs. Overall very happy.

If I had to share the best decision Ive done for my SELF was choosing Park Ave Lasek and Dr Chynn to give me what I have been dreaming to have since I was little. I have been wearing glasses since I was in 2nd grade, and contacts since 6th grade, and my prescription of NEGATIVE 9 has always been a burden on my day to day life.What I love most and appreciate whole heartedly about Dr Chynn is his bluntness and perfectionism. Lets not forget, Dr Chynn is dealing with your EYES, the delicate gift of vision is not something to be dealt with lightly, and I must say I have been to doctors that did not make me feel secure simply because it did not seem so delicate to them.I have to also note, my cornea was way to thin for Lasik, so my only option at the time was PRK and that has been the biggest reason I waited so long to research other options... but again I am SO grateful that I found Park Ave Lasek.The procedure, the team, the visits, everything in total has been and still is a very comforting and exciting experience. I have better than 20/20 vision today, something I couldnt imagine having 5 months ago.This is the only place I will ever recommend!!!

Accompanied my best friend to her LASEK surgery. Very detailed and courteous staff! Every i dotted and every t crossed. Cant wait for her to see 20/20. The directions for patients and companions are very thorough and make me feel very confident in her recovery and after care. I had PRK over 10 years ago and wish I knew about Park Avenue LASEK! LASEK is noncutting so newer and safer than the older cutting LASIK that everyone is scared to get 😱 😛. The doctor actually performed the non cutting surgery on himself

Ive gotten my surgery almost three weeks ago. Some of the best money Ive ever spent, hands down! I got myself LASEK HD which turned my world into a high definition experience! I see way better than I ever had even with glasses or contacts. Getting LASEK instead of LASIK also allows me to participate in contact spots safely. My vision was very poor and my prescription was -6 so I feel liberated from the need to wear contacts or glasses and I recommend everyone else to free their eyes too!)))

My husband had LASEK surgery with doctor Chynn the day after Xmas 2018. We were really really nervous because you never know what can happen even though theres great reviews. Plus we own a Video Production company and my husband is the senior video editor, his eyes are everything! But my husband was tired of wearing contacts and glasses. His prescriptions were so high and we kept spending money between glasses and contacts every time the prescription changed. And I couldnt stand seeing my hubby getting completely shut down whenever the migraines would attack. It was getting really bad. My husband had a prescription of -8 and -7.When my co worker told me her husband had eye surgery to correct his myopia at Park Avenue LASEK, I immediately researched them from top to bottom. I found some funny and crazy stories about Dr. Chynns personality and stuff, but what I was mostly interested was how good of an eye surgeon he was. He is really good at his craft. Hands down!Plus my husband and I met with my co-workers husband, so he could tell us his own experience, after that we decided to go for it.Its been a more than a month and my husband can already see 20/20. Ive never seen him so happy. The migraines are gone. For him it has been a life changing experience. His dream is to go back to the Great Canyon and experience it with his new eyes because its not the same with glasses. You can never see everything perfectly.One thing though, you MUST follow the instructions, read everything, ask multiple questions because although I love his staff, they are very caring and nice, theyre not the best communicators. Just ask and they will answer all your questions.

Dr. Chynn has been nothing short of amazing. He was able to comfort me financially by offering me financing but more importantly, he accepted my insurance to cover a lot of the cost. I was so happy with the service because the doctors are so smart and well informed. The dog was so cute. He snuggled up next to me and make me happy. I came in for my three week post op and I sometimes stay longer than I want but Im always happy with the service.
