    LASIK, PRK LASEK and Laser Vision Correction by ACES - Cebu, Dumaguete and Cagayan de Oro - ACES Eye Referral Clinics

    Go to Aces by Hypermart, the main center is in Cebu. i have relatives in Cebu that say it is one of the best in the world.

    I had Mono-vision Lasik about 15 years ago and amazingly I had almost instant near perfect vision then and since then it has even gotten better ! No explanation as to why but they have seen it happen before. No complaints from me that's for sure. I had coke bottle bottom glasses at one time, then wore contacts/ mono vision style for years before lasik. I'd do it again in a heart-beat.

    I only have one side effect, a slight ghost semi halo effect at night with headlights and street lights. Not a big deal though. They probably have that figured out by now with all the advances. Go for it. That's my opinion anyhow. No regrets what so ever.

    In my opinion, Dr Larrazable in Cebu Dr Hospital is by far the best in the Philippines. One day I will need corneal transplant surgery and he is the only one I would trust. I have recommended several friends to him for lasek surgery and they all have had good results.

    Back to the OP and his question. Vicky Santiago have a promo on throughout August. 20% off all frames and 12% off lenses. Might be worth you checking it out.

    They do, just what they say, on the Tin (Can)

    Just resurrecting this Thread, as I visited today. 5 min wait for test, 1 Hour to complete the prescription. 10% discount, throughout January. The Shop is Now in Evermall and is well stocked, Plenty of Staff to accommodate. They have engaged another technician. All in all, I stand by my Convictions on this Company.

    You wrote this 6 years ago, so are you still using the same Company in Evermall?

    For prescription glasses I have long used Vicki Santiago's shop. It's a few years since it's been next to Unitop. Now it's a few steps north of Lee Plaza, a store front of the minimall.
