Patient testimonials

After 20 years of glasses and horrible vision I finally received LASIK at Virdi Eye Clinic today. I had a wonderful experience from the consult to surgery day. Very minimal wait time and I was given one person from start to finish from my first call inquiry to my post- surgical evaluation. Susan was just wonderful, no matter how many questions I asked. All the staff were very nice and eager to help you out. Dr. Borisuth was very professional, good and easy to talk to. My surgery was just a couple hours ago so my vision is still blurry but very happy with my choice to go
here. Thank You.

Lael Aspenson

Dr. Borisuth and his expert staff are incredible. I am still amazed at how smooth and painless this procedure was. Would do it again in a heartbeat, and highly recommend coming to see him if you’re interested. Everyone was so knowledgeable, kind and compassionate. I was a nervous wreck and they all made me feel so safe and secure. 5-star treatment and kudos to a job well done! THANK YOU!!

Melissa Baker

Yes, so happy went to the Rock Island Virdi Eye Clinic, loved them so much. Especially Susan, she was so kind and comforting about the whole surgery. I had mono vision Lasik on my right eye and afterwards I was already seeing almost 20/20 for reading. Incredible painless and fast, the doctor was amazing. Thank you Dr. Borisuth you are one in a million!! If you are thinking about Lasik surgery please go here. I wasn’t even sure I was a candidate. they are all so knowledgeable and skilled. I am so happy I can see again without glasses and contacts.

Susan Llaca

I had surgery yesterday to correct the vision in my left eye so I can see close-up. I already have good distance vision so I was able to have surgery on just one eye. I no longer have to use readers! The day after surgery I am having zero issues and can see close up again…love it. The surgery was very quick and painless and I wish I would have had this surgery years ago! The doctor and staff are excellent, they are super friendly and informative. I would highly recommend going to Virdi Eye Clinic for any of your vision needs.

Sheila Williams

I am beyond happy with my vision after Lasik, and I have Dr. Borisuth and his team to thank. His staff, including Susan Eaker, the Lasik coordinator, showed great care and warmth leading up to and during the procedure. The initial consultation was open and honest, and Dr. Borisuth and Susan were available to answer questions via e-mail and phone pre- and post-op. I would recommend the Virdi Eye Clinic to anyone
interested in Lasik eye surgery.

Mishika N

It is honestly the best decision I’ve ever made!! Being able to see without glasses or contacts is still so unreal to me! I love it!! Everyone was so nice and answered any questions I had. I highly recommend this to EVERYONE!! Big shout out to Nicole for referring me, the doctor, nurses and everyone involved making it happen.

Whitney Fortune

I had lasik done at Virdi a week ago and am very happy with the decision. They did a great job explaining everything to me and walking me through the procedure. Which made it much less anxiety inducing than I had anticipated. Still
getting used to the blended vision option I chose, but grateful for the options explained.

Fonda Van Nattan

Best decision ever made! My Lasik was done 03/24/23, Susan was phenomenal with my Lasik consult. Very thoroughly detailed with all the information needed and answers to my questions. Dr. Borisuth did an amazing job on my procedure. Very down to earth and explained the whole procedure to a T. My experience was very comfortable and easy and highly recommend to anyone!

Missy McQuate

The staff at Virdi Eye are excellent and attentive. I was nervous to have Lasik and had been putting it off for a while. Dr. Borisuth and Susan E. made me feel comfortable with doing the procedure. They assured me I was a good candidate also since my eyeglass prescription hadn’t change in nearly a decade. I’m still recovering so I cannot yet comment on the final results of Lasik but I am feeling great and ready to be contact lens and glasses free!

Bridget Johnson

I recently had LASIK eye surgery at the Virdi Eye Clinic in Rock Island. I feel like I am viewing the world for the first time. Words cannot express how happy I am with my new found vision. The procedure was only 15 minutes long, and very little discomfort. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and professional throughout the whole process. I am recommending Virdi to everyone.
