What Our Patients Say

“Very good ICL surgery experience. Dr. Leone and her staff are top notch. Virtually pain free and minimal recovery time. It has been six months and I haven’t missed my contacts/glasses at all. Highly recommended team at Wilmington Eye. Great job to Dr. Leone and her team.”

— Frank C.

“Dr. Polomsky did a great job on my eyes. I had PRK 6 months ago and I’m very happy with my results. Thank you to everyone who helped during my surgery to my checkup appointments. You guys are great.”

— Sarah B.

“I honestly cannot say enough. If you are at all interested in LASIK this is the place to go. I recently had LASIK performed by Dr. Covington and I am beyond astonished by my results. I have been in glasses/contacts since 6th grade and I am now free from both. During my surgery Dr. Covington was assisted by Kelly and Missy which helped me remain calm and feel extremely comfortable during the procedure. They were amazing. Kelly LASIK Coordinator was on top of getting me scheduled in office and for all my follow up appts for the next couple months. This office deserved 5 stars all the way.”

— Chandler G.

“I had been thinking about getting LASIK for years. I finally decided that there was no time like the present... The staff were so welcoming and friendly. I was with Dr. Springs and felt very comfortable with him being the doctor performing the procedure. All of a sudden I was in the chair and then it was over. Waking up being able to see and open my eyes without having to put glasses on is just the most amazing feeling ever. I'm now over 6 months post operation and still love my experience with Dr. Springs and the Wilmington Eye team.”

— Alexandria C.
