At Peninsula Laser Eye Medical Group of Mountain View we specialize in both refractive and cataract eye surgery. Dr. Dan Beers has even been named one of "The Best Surgeons in the Bay Area" by San Jose Magazine and other journals. Dr. Dan Beers has served as the Chief of Ophthalmology at El Camino Hospital and teaches the latest surgical techniques to the ophthalmology residents at Stanford University.
Our office has performed tens of thousands of LASIK procedures. In fact, our doctors have even performed the surgery on each other! We are happy to report that 92% of our patients see 20/20 or better following LASIK and 99% see 20/40 or better. Excellent personalized care, use of the most advanced equipment available, and extensive surgical experience are the main reasons why so many patients come to see Drs.
Our natural lens inside the eye has the ability to flex and focus at different distances, but unfortunately this flexibility begins to fade away around age 42. A multifocal lens is designed to provide clear vision in the distance and near. Multifocal lenses have been used extensively over the past ten years.
Cataracts are a natural part of the aging process but they do not have to interfere with your lifestyle. Tremendous advancements in technology and lens implants now make cataract surgery more painless and beneficial than ever. Nationally, over three million procedures are performed annually. Remarkably, many patients experience vision quality that is superior to their pre-cataract baseline.

I had Dr. Beers perform my Lasik eye surgery close to 20 years ago. He was amazing and called me the evening after surgery (and he was traveling) to check-in on how I was feeling. Perfect vision, so happy. Fast forward, 2022 and now I needed cataract surgery. Again, the surgery was painless, fast and the team is all about the patient. I no longer need my reading glasses, the halos went away and driving at night is once again doable. Thanks to Dr. Beers and his great team. I am so grateful!

I had ICL surgery with Dr Beers and I'm extremely happy with the results. I have dry eyes, a really high prescription and high astigmatism so I was not eligible for lasik/PRK. I've seen a few other ophthalmologist but they were not able to help me so I was so ecstatic when Dr Beers told me that he will be able to help improve my vision with ICL. The process was a little lengthy since they have to special order my lens due to my high prescription and the shortage during the pandemic. Georgina was very sweet and helpful and kept me updated all through the process. Dr Beers even got involved to help expedite my lens order.
Overall I'm extremely happy with my decision to get ICL and I would highly recommend it. This is the best vision I've had all my life without the hassle of contact lens and glasses.

Dr. Beers was wonderful and awesome! He and Georgina really helped me understand the process and feel really comfortable throughout the whole surgery. Dr. Beers even helped me over the weekend when one of my lenses fell out. His office was amazing and everyone is so friendly! I have recommended this office to my family and friends if they are ever on the need of lasik/PRK laser eye surgery! Cannot recommend them enough! Love this office!

I had my lenses replaced in both eyes. This is a life altering operation. My visual acuity now is better than I have ever had in my whole life. What was unexpected was the delightful improvement in color accuracy - I am now seeing true colors for the first time in many years. It is amazing. Dr. Beers was excellent in explaining carefully the various lens alternatives and letting me decide my self.
The operation itself was a breeze. In and out in a morning. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. It was all done with assembly line precision. I had great confidence that they had done this many, many times before and had it down to a carefully choreographed routine. I had no pain. I was already seeing out of the operated eye the next day and within a few days I was seeing better than I had before. A terrific experience overall.

This is an excellent clinic for doing Lasik. Highly recommend. I am a 37 y/o male engineer who had Lasik vision surgery with Dr. Liu, in August of 2020. I am now three weeks post-surgery and have 20/20 vision, with the normal side effects/recovery time. The whole process was very professional, quick, and effective. I especially appreciated that after my surgery, later in the evening, Dr. Liu gave me a personal call to check in on how I was doing. And we are doing post-operative checkups at 1 day, 1 week, 3 weeks, and 13 weeks. I feel very well cared for. Thank you.

Dr. Liu did my Visian ICL and everything turned out really well. I opted in for ICL instead of Lasik, because of my fear of getting something done that's non-reversible. The whole process went smoothly. I first got the iridotomy done, which hurts quite a bit on my left eye because I have very thick iris, but it's nothing unbearable. The ICL surgery itself was way better than the iridotomy, I have very low pain tolerance and I didn't feel much.
I was able to gain very clear vision (almost 20/20) on the second day, but very sensitive to lights. After the third day I was able to go back to my normal routine. During my follow up checks, Dr. Liu told me that the lenses are sitting very well in my eyes, the lenses size fits perfectly and I was able to getting very good vaulting (about 1.5 cornea thickness).
I regained very sharp and crisp vision, it's nothing comparable to using glasses and contact lenses. Overall I'm really happy with the result, I regret not getting it done sooner :)

I have been a very satisfied patient of Dr. Beers since 2003. Not only is he a wonderful Doctor, but his entire staff is always helpful and professional. When I first visited Dr. Beers, my vision was so blurred I was having difficulty seeing. I was wearing contacts at the time and my corneas were so scratched, Dr. Beers originally thought I might have cancer of the corneas. Luckily that was not the case.
He treated me, and my corneas healed extremely well. Afterwards I didn't want to wear contacts again, so I choose to have Lasik surgery. It is one of the best health decisions I have ever made! I had mono vision done and haven't had to wear glasses or contacts since 2003. I recently had my yearly check up and my eye sight has barely changed in all those years. I teased Dr. Beers and told him I must have had a good Doctor'', and I did! I highly recommend Dr. Beers and the Peninsula Laser Eye medical Group.

Professional and experienced staff. Highly recommended. This is a review about the photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) procedure I had done in July 2020. I was always squeamish about touching my eyes and it took me ages to even work up the courage to start wearing contact lenses. Anyway, years later, I decided to have laser eye surgery done to correct my strong myopia.
My doctor, whom doctor Dan Beers had done LASIK on over 20 years ago (!) recommended him. Georgina, the refractive coordinator, was so friendly and kind. She explained a lot of things to me and did the measurements, etc. Dr. Beers (who has an impressive resume by the way -- years and years of experience in this field) took one look at my eye measurements and explained that I was not a LASIK candidate.
I was initially heartbroken, but then he explained that PRK was an alternative and that some people can get even better vision sometimes with PRK (plus you have the added bonus of not having a flap created). I was very excited that this possibility existed and eagerly opted for this PRK alternative. Georgina held my hand during the quick and painless surgery (involves staring at a laser while the surgeon does his magic), which was so nice and made the experience so much better. Things take TIME to improve after PRK (Dr. Beers had explained this to me before). However, I was lucky.
Although I suffered from dry eyes and moderate ghosting initially (completely expected), things improved week by week. I got to 20/20 vision pretty quickly and I can now say that after 9 months, I no longer need any lubricating drops and my vision has now reached 20/15 (which slightly exceeds my initial goal of 20/20). Please keep in mind that the experience varies from person to person depending on how your eyes heal and that my experience might be different from yours. I think I made the right choice by choosing them. I felt that I was in safe hands throughout.
