There are literally 3 reviews that have even been left since Dr. Beyer left. This place is a joke, don't trust the one rookie "Doctor" named long for anything serious

Dr. Long is not qualified to perform ICL surgery. Giving him the benefit of the doubt following the initial operation, I believed that rather than surgical error, my residual visual impairment was a product of a defect with the lens as opposed to surgical error. When I returned months later for a lens exchange, after it became evident that time and eyedrops weren't helping, I was subjected to a prolonged and painful operation where it felt like my eye was being butchered by an ape with a scalpel. In Dr. Long's hands, the forceps repeatedly failed to grip the lens, and it took him so many tries that the numbing drops had long since worn off. More importantly, he caused so much trauma to the eye during the procedure that I have since developed a cataract. nearly 5 months and $10K later, my vision is worse than ever. What has been done to me is nothing short of criminal malpractice. Do not entrust the fate of your vision to this unexperienced, unskilled individual.

I was traveling from KC to Estes Park when I began to have an eye flare. I have suffered from iritis and uveitis in the past due to an autoimmune condition.My ophthalmologist recommended that I see an ophthalmologist in CO urgently. With it being almost 3pm on a Friday I was extremely nervous that I would be unable to see a specialist since I was not a patient.I called multiple ophthalmologists in Boulder and I was so thankful the front desk (I cannot remember her name) was able to get me in with Dr. Long.Dr. Long was very thorough and provided me with medication and the number of the on call doctor in case I had further issues over the weekend (thankfully I didn't).I'm so thankful they were able to see me on such short notice and ease my anxiety while traveling from out of town.Thank you to Dr. Long and the rest of the staff!

This place cured me! I had nasty recurrent ulcers in my eyes due to trauma. I went to 4 (FOUR) ophthalmologists and NOT A SINGLE ONE of them took the time to look at me and find the scar tissue causing the recurrent ulcers. These were so painful it was like a canker sore in my eye once a month. These other Ophthalmologists were content to watch me suffer in pain. Boulder Eyes cured me and I'm 4 years out from the surgery and have not had a single ulcer. I cannot say enough about this team.

In 2007 I received PRK from Dr. Beyer at the age of 19. PRK was required over lasik to have uncorrected 20/20 by the US Navy if trying to join special forces division. At the time Beyer had a business partner and both were running a promotion that patients could receive 50% of the contract price back within a year if all rules were followed. No patients saw their money back as Dr. Beyers business partner took the money and fled the country. I was due almost $2,000. I have reached out to Beyer multiple times throughout the years and he offers no remorse or solution even though he personally profited off of the scam. Sham on Dr. Beyer. I also will note that ever since the surgery my night vision is terrible and I have starbursts and halos around lights. When shopping for a PRK or Lasik, I suggest you look somewhere else.

I had lasik two months ago; now my vision is worse than before. I was not warned that this can happen. Very disappointed.

We tried to schedule a phone consultation with the doctor that recently took over this practice. Dr. Beyer was the previous practice owner. He had promised us a discount and a better price for the surgery. We tried to schedule surgery with this clinic. They never even called us back. Maybe the new doctor didn’t want to do the job for the quoted price of the previous doctor. Nevertheless, we ended up paying more for good customer service, and a company that took us seriously. LasikPlus in Belmar did a great job and they were very reasonably priced. They were on time with the phone consultations and on top of everything. They even provided my wife with a temporary pair of glasses to get her by while she was without her contacts. unfortunately, this office lost a customer because they didn’t follow through on an appointment they set with us. Too bad. Hopefully they treat the rest of Dr. Beyers clients better than we were treated.
