I was made to feel comfortable and at ease. Everyone at the clinic was polite and professional and every step of the procedure was clearly explained. It was a positive experience and I would highly recommend Dr. Khachikian and the Black Hills Eye Institute.

Dr. K got my cataract lenses just perfect for my eyes. I am super happy with my new vision. Dr. K explained the procedure very well before the surgery and everything went well during the surgery. His follow-up was also very complete. He took the time to answer all my question. An excellent surgery outcome and an overall excellent experience.

I was referred to Dr Khachikian thru the VA. From the first appointment thru cataract surgery on both eyes, I felt completely at peace knowing that I would receive the best care possible. My eyesight was changing drastically because of my cataracts and astigmatisms and now I can see more clearly than I have in decades. Dr Khachikian and his staff were patient and kind throughout my procedures and visits. Thank you so much!!

I am very pleased with the results of the surgery. I am looking forward to getting my new glasses. I was a little disappointed that I had to wait an hour and 15 minutes for the second surgery

One eye was great but the other eye Iam not seeing very well. The last conversation I had with the assistant was that he couldn’t do anything else for me
