Hi All, I am new here. Just wanted to share my personal experience with Dr Wong Jun Shyan at ISEC. Went there for my Pre Lasik Assessment and was diagnosed with thin corneas. I was told that if regression happens I will not be able to have further enhancement. In short if my prescription come back I will still need to wear glasses. Upon hearing the bad news I started asking questions about the odds of getting regression and if regression happens what are the power. The doc was very unfriendly, impatient and always only give me a 3 - 4 words answer and followed by "any other question" everytime aft he answered. He doesn't even look at me when he is replying. He is the kind of doc that did not show a slightest hint of concern for the patient and all he is interested in is the money and getting me out of the room as soon as possible. Well at least this is the impression he gave me. He as the doc should be furnishing me with all the information and not me trying to press for details. This is a basic right for a patient. I asked "what do you think? Should I proceed with the surgery since I have thin corneas and I don't like the idea of wearing glasses again after the surgery. Do you think it is advisable?". Without a hesitation, he said "of course, just schedule your op with the nurse. Any other other question?" Dr Wong is notorious for his bad bedside manner (3 friends of mine have encounters with him and 1 got his surgery done there and 2 left because of his stinky attitude!) Even after all the bad stuff I heard about him I still proceeded to see him because he is technically good. I thought I could ignore the attitude part but he push it too far.

I went to see a different doc in SG for a 2nd opinion and my experience with this doctor is a lot more pleasant. He took his time to address my concerns and explained to me that even with my thin corneas I should achieve good result with intralase flaps. Dr Wong never explained to me about anything. I don't even know what technology or machine he will using on me. The 2nd doc kindly offer to write a note to Dr Wong as all the medical terms are beyond my comprehension and advised me to have my op done back in Msia because of the price difference. I was a lot more relief and have more understanding and knowledge of the options I have after seeing the 2nd doc. I wrote to Dr Wong to schedule for my op, asked if there's any thing I should prepare prior to my op and attached the letter from the SG doctor. Received a 1 line reply saying "There is no additional prep" from Dr Wong. No comment on the letter at all. Still I booked my trip back to KL and went for the op only to found out at the waiting room that ISEC do not have the Intralase facility and they only do Microkeratome!!!!!! This is totally unacceptable. He could at least let me know that they do not do Intralase! I would be such an idiot if I go anywhere near him ever again!

If you interested to get Intralase done in optimax by the an experienced lasik surgery eye specialist, I can help get you a referral letter with great discount. And I am sure the consultants in optimax will not give you some crap like that.

wanna do lasik surgery but still scared.. huhu

eye sight around 800 can do laser

im interested in these.. i've got to read whole page to get into details / recommendations / review.. hahaha

Yes, i think is possible. There are different technologies for different prescription. My power is -7.00 both eyes and got thin corneas best treatment for me is Intralase. Make sure you consult your doctor for all the available methods. I know they are some docs out there that will just recommend you to a certain method because that's the only facility they have in their clinic or centre. I personally experienced that with ISEC with Dr JS Wong. So be careful and do your research.

for my case mostly will cost how much ??

have anyone heard any stories of the surgery failure? what has happened after that? and what has been done to fix it?

interested in getting an operation though

You will need to go through the pre-lasik assessment to check and make sure that your eyes are in a healthy conditions before they can recommend the most suited treatment for you. If your eyes have no problems is basically down to your personal preference on the type treatment.

Here's my experience with Dr Wong Jun Shyan at ISEC that I posted in the forum. For me, Dr JS Wong is a big NO NO!

What is the range of rate nowadays I wonder? Used to hear it's around 2k per surgery.

what is the success rate for the operation

Hi Andrew. You first need to find out the cause and severity of your dry eyes. It needs to be treated and brought down in severity after which your doctor can advise you whether your eyes are fit to undergo Lasik.

yah, what is the success rate, wanted to do but still hesitating

any healthy product to take care of eye

Custom all laser lasik for high power eye with thin cornea cost ard Rm 7500 for 2 eyes with a referral letter. If interested, I can arrange for u.

I have no commerial interest in getting you a referral letter to either optimax or vista, they done the most cases in malaysia, thats why you should choose either of them, rather than those self promoted centres you see in this forum.


If you have lasik failure, you have to see the optometrist that specialised in it, they will fit you with post-lasik soft contact lens to help reduce the starburst or double image from the lasik failure.

I did my laser surgery at Evergreen Eye care, Toronto. I was prejudiced about surgeries and was scared to the roots before surgery. But the experience was cool since they were very gentle with me. I don't have any issues with my eyes now. I have heard of surgery failures and was scared but this one was perfect!

I got 925 power on my right eye.. Possible for lasik?

Hi, I want to do my lasik in Johor. Any recommedation? More precise is optimax vs vista. I believe those two is available in jb. Gonna check them out later on.
