I am so grateful to Dr Murri for his willing to take on my eye sight. I had many doctors and specialist refuse to treat me and so when I found Dr Murri and his optimism to help me with my vision it was a game changer. Now, six months after my laser eye treatment I am seeing 20/20 and I don’t have to suffer glasses or the pain of contacts anymore. I’m seeing clearer and without struggle and I’m thankful for Dr Murri and his amazing caregivers.

I had -12 vision and for the longest time I didn’t have any hope of being able to see without glasses or contacts. I was referred to Dr. Murri for an EVO ICL consultation, and it was the best decision of my life! First Dr Murri is SUPER friendly and made me feel comfortable. He didn’t get annoyed at all my questions. During the actual surgery he checked in on me and made sure I was comfortable. Since the surgery, I’ve finally been able to wake up without needing glasses. I would absolutely refer anyone to Dr. Murri!

Dr.Murri is great! I went to him for lasik surgery. His consultation was very thorough and Informative. The day of surgery he goes out of his way to make sure you're comfortable. He's fast and essentially it was painless. After relying on glasses and contacts for the last 35 years I now have perfect vision.

I always went to this office to see Tom Gayer for my regular appointments, and the one time I went somewhere else they put me in the wrong prescription. Since then I always just wanted to stay at this office. So I was pleased when Tom said they had an in house Doctor (Dr Murri) that he recommended for getting LASIK done. He did a great job with the procedure. I’m a couple months out now and so far have 20/20 and am loving it.

I have keratoconus and thought that I would struggle with my vision for the rest of my life. I met Dr. Murri last year, after a referral from my regular ophthalmologist. He was able to perform a Cross-linking procedure on both of my eyes to stabilize my corneas and halt the progression of my vision loss. And, what was the cherry on top, Dr. Murri was able to perform a 2nd procedure to correct my vision with Evo ICL implants. I never thought that I would be able to see without my glasses or contacts, but now I get to wake up every morning and see clearly. I see more clearly than I ever thought possible and enjoy less eye irritation at the same time.
