About Magruder Laser Vision
At Magruder Laser Vision, we aim to improve people’s lives by correcting their vision through refractive surgical solutions such as LASIK, Lens Replacement, and Laser Cataract Surgery. We pride ourselves on delivering the highest quality services in the market while maintaining a nationwide reputation of being at the forefront of technology, as well as welcoming and caring.
What Drives Magruder Laser Vision?
At Magruder Laser Vision, our passion is simply providing clear vision without the need for glasses or contacts. We understand the hassle, expense, and risks involved with contact lenses and glasses, and as such, made it our mission to give our patients independence from these through minimally-invasive surgical options. Improving our patients’ lifestyles and providing outstanding patient experiences is what drives us.
Where We Started
In 1996, we started off as LaserVue, Central Florida’s first LASIK center. We specialized in related procedures like Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK), now called Advanced Surface Ablation, and refractive cataract surgery. This last procedure allows vision correction at the same time as cataract removal.
With our main office building, built in the early 2000s, we knew that we wanted to focus explicitly on creating a warm and comfortable environment for our cataract and refractive surgical patients.
This included designing a space with high ceilings, large windows, and the latest diagnostic and laser equipment available. Our mission, to bring patient experience into the core of what we do while optimizing our surgical outcomes.
A Culture Dedicated To A Positive Patient Experience
Our team is all about bringing warmth to our patient experience by fostering a genuine and personal connection to each and every individual. We’re not ‘just an office building with fancy lasers’… But a culture that is all about making our patients happy.
We customize all of our recommendations to each individual’s vision correction and infuse warmth into all of our interactions to help them feel safe. This ensures that no matter who you’re interacting with on our team, whether it is our front desk, technicians, or doctors, you will feel at ease and well-cared for.
Our Future: Innovating Patient Comfort
2020 witnessed our expansion into a new office-based surgery suite. Office Based Surgery seamlessly integrates clinic and surgery in one location, providing a comfortable and personalized premium surgical experience. It’s better for both our patients and our team because we have the ability to control the schedule, equipment, sterility, staffing, and management. It’s better for our patients because it’s more convenient, without anesthesia, and offers our high-touch offerings with greater flexibility.
