Patient Testimonials

Visual health is so important to our wellbeing.

We understand this well at Clemson Eye and bring the best in technology, training and patient care to ensure superior visual outcomes for our patients.

For our eye doctors and professional staff, there is little more gratifying than the fantastic feedback we receive from our eye care patients. Below are a few examples.

LASIK Testimonials

Morgan Fields, PA-C

As a Pediatric Physician’s Assistant, glasses continued to get in the way of her work.


After having gone through with LASIK, Morgan feels that her job as a Physician’s Assistant is much easier and so much more fun interacting with the children!

“Seeing the leaves on the trees and the clouds in the sky I feel like really changed my perspective on the world, and the beauty that we get to see every day.”

Jeff Spears, Worship Pastor

Jeff could not function without the help of glasses or contacts. LASIK was something he had always considered at some point, but he was unsure of the process.

“The more I found out about LASIK and the reputation at Clemson Eye with success stories made me realize that this could actually be a possibility.”

“Thinking back to life before LASIK, I’m very thankful I don’t have to deal with that now, and I never want to go back!”

Jordan Carlson, OD

Our very own Dr. Jordan Carlson explains how LASIK helped change his life both personally and professionally.

His everyday occupation consists of all things optics – lenses, lights, and reflections. Eliminating the factor of glasses and contacts made it a lot easier for him not to have to worry about his own sight and how it factors into his career as an optometrist.

“I truly do feel like I can better serve my patients now that I have better vision.”

Kendall Estes, Medical Esthetician

As a Medical Esthetician, it is essential for Kendall to see very small things, from extracting pores to treating vascular lesions. Glasses and contacts were an ongoing issue preventing Kendall from best serving her patients on a day-to-day basis.

LASIK with Clemson Eye was a life-changing experience for Kendall, and one that she says she will never forget.

“I can truly see and enjoy the environment around me in a way that I couldn’t before LASIK. Pretty much anyone you talk to who’s done it, their only regret is why they didn’t do it sooner!”

Savannah, Dog Breeder

Contacts made Savannah’s eyes tired, which made her job as a dog breeder difficult. She was constantly having to stop and switch to her glasses to give her eyes rest.

After pondering on LASIK for almost 15 years, she decided it was time to have surgery with Clemson Eye.

“It was really important to me to get the personal and relatable element ahead of time…Dr. Riddle treated me like an individual person, and not just a number, which I thought was really special.”

Madison Webb, Undergraduate Student

The busyness of Madison’s day-to-day life distracted her from realizing that her sight needed attention. Not having worn glasses her whole life, she had to get used to that new routine.

“I didn’t really ever feel like myself in glasses, because I had never known a life with them.”

She soon realized LASIK was an option for her and never looked back.

“It’s so much better being able to enjoy life and the beauty of everything around you.”

IF YOU ARE ON BLOOD THINNER AND HAVE EYE SURGERY - KEEP YOUR HEAD ELEVATED AT ALL TIMES UNTIL SWELLING GOES DOWN.An older loved one had surgery to lift eyelids so he could see better (removing drooping skin covering eye). He has been on blood thinner for over 20 years. We followed all pre-op care and aftercare instructions given at the time (including management of blood thinner bridging).Unfortunately, he developed a hematoma in one eye the night after the surgery, was bleeding profusely overnight every few hours as the blood would burst through the weakest point in the stitches - which is likely the only reason he still has vision in that eye now - and his eye was still so swollen it was crushing his eyeball. At 1:30am I contacted the on-call service and was told no one would respond from 10pm to 7am. Given what wed been through, that was frustrating.HOWEVER, once they contacted me at 7am they had us come in immediately and addressed the issue. The doctor and staff were very hands on and compassionate - acknowledging this was a worst case scenario every doctor dreads (that hed never seen in 25 years of practice) and the doctor even mentioned he would be changing what he told patients as a result. The doctor took great care to ensure my loved ones eye was not permanently damaged by immediately performing a procedure to release the pressure and allow for improved drainage and healing. He also called the warfarin blood thinner specialist PERSONALLY to discuss the best plan of action going forward rather than having someone else from his office handle it for him. He had us stay in the office for several hours after the short procedure to ensure my loved ones eyesight was improving and ensure there was no permanent damage to the eye. He then had us worked in for a follow up visit the next day.Im incredibly grateful for the doctors attention and swift correction of this issue once someone got in touch with us. It was a long healing journey, and in a perfect world one would hope this wouldnt happen - but for whatever reason it did. I have no doubt the doctor and his staff are updating their aftercare instructions as a result of this incident. Things happen... But the doctor and staff handled it well as soon as they knew what was going on.The only reason this isnt a 5 star review is because if a surgery can result in permanent eyesight loss, and they have an on-call practice, in EMERGENCIES such as this one was I would hope in the future it would be possible to reach a professional at any hour. I respect that everyone needs a work-life balance, but in triaged emergency cases I think it would be better to have someone who can at least advise patients at any hour on what to do when their eyesight is in danger of permanent damage.
