Why Do So Many People Demand the Experience & Expertise of Virginia Eye Institute Surgeons?
 |
John Beilein
Former Head Basketball Coach at University of Richmond
"Meeting the Atlantic 10 Conference challenge will demand a sharpened focus on the part of our players and coaches. That’s why I had LASIK performed by Dr. Tony Sakowski, UR class of ‘65, at Virginia Eye Institute. My vision of the entire basketball court has markedly improved since the procedure, and I would sincerely recommend it. Thanks to Virginia Eye Institute my focus has certainly been sharpened for the season." |

Jimmy Sneed
Chef/Owner, The Southern Grille
"Wow! Before LASIK, my vision was 20/800 in each eye. Now, it’s 20/20! I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Walter Bundy’s care and attention both before and after the procedure. If he were a chef, he’d get five stars!" |
 |
Dr. Sara Monroe
"What a plesure it is to really see the jumps! My experience with LASIK at the Virginia Eye Institute and Dr. Trice was excellent. The staff was professional and I couldn't be more pleased with the results." |
 |
John Beckner
Director of Pharmacy and Health Services for Ukrop’s
"Ukrop’s has enjoyed a longstanding relationship with the Virginia Eye Institute from vision screenings to guest appearances on RICH-TV. Therefore, it was only natural that I turned to the capable and experienced hands of Dr. Walter Bundy for my LASIK procedure. It has made a tremendous difference in my quality of life both personally and professionally. The procedure and the results certainly exceeded my expectations." |

Rob Ukrop
The Richmond Kickers
"Dr. Sakowski educated me about the LASIK procedure because I wanted to know how the procedure would affect my soccer career. After finding I was a good candidate, I realized this would improve my on field vision and allow me to be a better player. Yes, my new eyes are a huge benefit to my soccer career, but more importantly, the procedure has improved my daily quality of life. Each day I see things I had never truly noticed before like the blue sky on a clear day or the leaves changing colors in the fall. I never realized the world around me could be so clear! I am thankful to have worked with the great team at Virginia Eye Institute." |

Wayne Grubb
NASCAR Driver
"It's just awesome -- an unbelievable difference! Just the comfort in the helmet alone is worth it all. I've been wearing glasses since the 5th grade. I'm still looking for my glasses every time I put my helmet on- it's hard to break old habits!" |
 |
Jim Reid
Head Football Coach, University of Richmond
"LASIK has made a tremendous difference in my ability to see the entire football field in practice and on game day. It was a long-overdue and worthwhile decision to undergo LASIK with Dr. Tony Sakowski. I will be thrilled if the results of our season match the success of my LASIK procedure!" |

Kitty Bowman
Photographer
"I need perfect vision to deliver beautiful photographs. That's why I demanded the LASIK technology and experience provided by Virginia Eye Institute and Dr. Tony Sakowski." |
 |
Bob Black
"I'm called the Voice of the University of Richmond Spiders, but more importantly I'm the Eyes of the Spiders. Whether announcing a touchdown or a three-pointer it's a clear call now, thanks to the technology and experience provided by Virginia Eye Institute and Dr. Tony Sakowski." |

Ken Wayland
President, Free Agents Marketing
"My doctor and each and every Virginia Eye Institute associate contributed to the most pleasurable medical experience I've ever had. They worked so well as a team that each step of my LASIK procedure went smoothly. I can clearly see why so many people choose VEI... Literally!" |
Sharon Hunt
"My experience with Virginia Eye Institute was fantastic! The staff and Dr. Sakowski were friendly and professional. The immediate results were better than I expected."
Michele Davis
"I have heard so many commercials regarding LASIK and only dreamed I could be one of the patients with a success story. I then spoke with a friend who had the surgery and she couldn't speak more highly about her results. Within 6 months I had the procedure and it's truly amazing to be able to see so well without bothersome glasses or contact lenses. Thank you Dr. Sakowski, you did a great job!"
Travis Meade
"The LASIK procedure has expanded my view of the world, literally! I would encourage anyone who is interested in unburdening themselves of glasses or contact lenses to go to Virginia Eye Institute. I believe the doctors are making great strides in corrective eye surgery."
Carl Rockefeller
"After attending a free seminar I was convinced this procedure would get me out of the glasses that I had worn for 50 years. The LADARvision tracking laser technology relieved any fears. Dr. Sakowski explained the procedure and instilled the confidence in me to put my most valued sense, eyesight, in his hands. Thank you for all you have done for me!"
Rose M. Kessler
"I felt very relaxed from day one. Dr. Sakowski was great! He answered all of my questions without making me feel uneasy. He never pushed or rushed me even when I had to be examined without an appointment. The whole staff was excellent from the receptionist to my surgical team. Dr. Sakowski seemed just as excited as I about my surgery! I have all the confidence in the world in him. The most remarkable thing is that everyone at the institute is concerned about their patient's comfort. THANK YOU ALL!!!"
Jesse S. Lennon III
"I felt completely comfortable with the surgeon and staff at Virginia Eye Institute. I had previously spoken with another heavily advertised surgeon who did not seem to have the time to make me feel at ease both with him or the procedure. Dr. Sakowski did everything in a professional manner as far as I am concerned and took the time to explain a lot about the procedure as it related specifically to me. I will be and already have highly recommended both him and Virginia Eye Institute to all of my friends, family and acquaintances."
