Icon Surgery Center Of Denver

I'm reflecting on a pivotal medical decision I made approximately two years ago regarding cataract surgery. It's a memory that often weighs heavily on me, and I feel compelled to articulate the profound impact it has had. Prior to the operations, despite managing my diabetic condition with regular eye appointments, my vision was perfectly functional. I didn't require glasses and truly felt my eyesight was excellent. However, my ophthalmologist at ICON EyeCare- if appropriate, but the prompt says to elaborate and be significantly different, so maybe I can rephrase or generalize] strongly advised that immediate cataract surgery was essential. Trusting implicitly in medical expertise, I moved forward with the recommendation. I underwent the procedure for both eyes without hesitation, a decision I now deeply lament as arguably the most regrettable medical choice of my life. Far from improving my sight, the surgery has dramatically compromised my vision. Where once I saw with clarity and independence, I am now entirely dependent on corrective lenses. Even more distressing is the progressive decline I experience annually, necessitating frequent changes in my prescription. This constant deterioration is a stark contrast to my pre-surgical clarity. My personal experience compels me to share a critical piece of advice: always, always seek several independent medical opinions before consenting to any significant medical intervention, especially when your current health condition does not appear to warrant immediate drastic measures. Had I diligently pursued multiple consultations, I might have avoided this profoundly life-altering and disheartening outcome.

Fantastic experience at Icon, could not recommend more. I am so pleased with my care that I’ve received here. The team here is so friendly and accommodating, you can really tell how well this whole team works together, from the second you walk in and are greeted with the check-in group all the way to the surgery room. I received LASIK here with Dr. Kim and her team. The whole process has been amazing. Dr. Kim has fantastic bedside manner and is very personable. Highly recommend.

Dr. Eva Kim and her wonderful team at ICON Eyecare in Lone Tree, CO, performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes in February 2026. I had traveled from the East Coast specifically to have her perform my cataract surgery, based on her resume, reputation for competence, and personal recommendations. She is an excellent communicator with a compassionate bedside manner, and she patiently helped guide me by providing clear and straightforward information about lens choices available to fit my clinical picture. I felt confident that I was in good hands. She delivered, implanting Panoptix Pro Lenses, and now I am reader-free, crisp vision with no shadowing or double images, reduced glare and flare from headlights. I feel satisfied that I now have full benefits that the most up to date lens replacements can provide. I didn't realize how dim my vision had become until the new lenses were in place! I am so pleased that I made the extra effort to travel to ICON's Lone Tree office to have this procedure done by Dr. Kim.

From Sue at the front desk throughout my appointment.Eveyone was so kind and polite. Dr Dowgin explained everything so thoroughly, and Nate was amazing!!

I had a first time appointment with Dr Belen to check whether I might have an issue with closed (narrow) angles. Trey did a great job with the initial work up, and Dr Belen was very gracious and patient with the exam and with all my follow up questions. The person at front desk has a great sense of humor and was very personable. Omni Eye Specialists was fantastic!
