After much discussion we opted for the INTACS surgical procedure involving corneal implants. I was extremely nervous about being awake during the surgery and potential complications, but Dr. Silk was there every step of the way talking me through the procedure and giving superior follow up care.

I would highly recommend this office to anyone looking for quality medical care. I am confident that Dr. Silk will continue to do everything possible to get me to state where I can have corrective glasses or contacts again, and am optimistic about participating in the collagen cross linking studies once it is FDA approved for my condition.

Dr. Silk and Jessica Alvarado are wonderful people and absolutely great at what they do. I have a condition called Keratoconus and was referred over to Dr. Silk from Dr. Nguyen and Dr. Boutrose at the Northern Virginia Eye Center in order to receive surgery for both eyes. When I got there I was comforted by a very calming and soothing atmosphere which was further improved when I met Dr.

I wore glasses for 17 years and I decided to have LASIK surgery because I wanted to enjoy outdoor activities with my family without the hassle of wearing contact lenses. Two weeks ago I had my LASIK done with Dr. Silk and I was extremely happy with my result. My eye vision is now 20/15. Dr. Silk exceeded my expectations.

From the beginning, Dr. Silk was extremely meticulous about explaining the details of the procedure, and the benefits and risks. His pricing was very clear (no hidden fees or office visit copays) and better than other eye centers in the area. I’d highly recommend Dr. Silk. He’s very professional, has a great staff, and puts a high priority on patient care and comfort.

Dr. Silk performed my LASIK about a week and a half ago. I have been seeing him for my eye care for a few months now, leading up to my LASIK and he has been wonderful. He has a great bedside manner and is a true, honest professional. I would recommend him for LASIK and also for general ophthalmology any day.

My mother was having trouble seeing. I researched and found Dr. Silk. Let me say this, my mother is NOT a fan of doctors. But we found Dr. Silk caring, kind, & compassionate. My mother is not a native English speaker, but Dr. Silk explained everything carefully enough so that she understood and was comfortable and at ease. She even trusted him enough to undergo two cataract surgeries under his sure hands.

Dr. Silk pulled no punches and prepared me for my procedure. It was just what I was told and it was totally painless. Finding Dr. Silk was the best thing that ever happened to me. I have the vision of a two year old and it is because of the great job of Dr. Silk and his staff. I salute you for a job well done.
