Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

LASIK Patient
The best gift to me this holiday season is the gift of new vision without corrective lenses. I chose to have LASIK done by Dr. Kerry Solomon, a worldwide known physician and amazing surgeon. I am blessed to be able to work closely with Dr Solomon on his team at Carolina Eyecare Physicians. I wanted to live my normal life without having to worry about finding my glasses or contacts.I can’t wait to be able to do my daily activities without having to wear glasses or contacts. My contacts would not be able to stay in my eyes for a long period of time because of the dryness and redness from wearing my contacts. I can’t wait to be in/on the water with non prescription glasses and being able to look through the camera lens without my glasses getting in the way.I want to thank Dr. Kerry Solomon and his team (my coworkers) for this special opportunity and amazing outcome. You are all the best and I am beyond happy with the outcome of my vision.

Cataracts/Implants
I recently flew to South Carolina from Illinois and had my brother (Dr. Kerry Solomon) remove cataracts from both eyes and implant premier lenses. What an amazing experience-from the initial consult and testing to the two back to back days of surgery. There is no pain and no recovery. I no longer wear contacts (did for 30 years) and my distance vision is spectacular. I wish I was an artist as I can see all branches, leaves, and all details of far away trees. I feel much more confident driving! This is a big change. I have also noticed that colors are much more vibrant-blues are bluer, whites are whiter, etc! I highly recommend Dr. Kerry Solomon and ALL his staff. What a terrific and forever change in my vision! He truly Is the best!

Get a second opinion before scheduling cataract surgery. I was only given 2 choices of new lenses, the one Medicare pays for or the most expensive ones. Was told only the latter would make me glasses free. After paying $7200, and taking 4 vacation days from work, 6 procedures and 5 other office visits, I got a RX for glasses on my last follow up appointment. Friends and family have had cataract surgery with other eye doctors and had much better results and paid half what I did. Save your money.

I had an incredible experience with Dr. Solomon and his team. From the first meeting, I felt like I was in good hands. They really helped me set aside any anxieties about the procedure (I was definitely concerned because of the rumors that go around about it). But they answered all of my questions, walked me through the procedure, and helped me understand that my main focus was to do what I needed to heal. I was able to see very clearly immediately and I couldn’t believe how quickly it happened. 1 week later and I can't believe I didn't do this sooner. I recommend Dr. Solomon to anyone considering LASIK or vision correction surgery!

Dr. Solomon performed a miracle on my eyes, removing two dense cataracts and at the same time, correcting my lifelong severe myopia. I could not have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend him for anyone needing cataract surgery.

On the morning of July 15 my quality of life changed dramatically. That was the day Dr. Kerry Solomon removed the cataract from my left eye and implanted a toric lens. In the few short minutes it took Dr. Solomon to perform the surgery my vision changed from dull and hazy to high definition. The improvement is difficult to put into words. I can only say that this is an age reversal procedure with regard to vision. I had given up on activities I used to enjoy. I used to play golf but my poor vision put a halt to that. I now look forward to returning the course. Driving at night was dangerous. The lights from oncoming vehicles blinded me. Even during the day while driving I had to lean toward the instrument panel and squint to read the gauges. I didn't even know what high def TV really looked like until now. Pictures are bright and crisp. Letters are bold. I can not only see trees but the leaves are clearly defined. Thanks to Dr. Solomon & staff the world is a more beautiful place.

I had the opportunity of visting Dr. Solomon in the month of May 2020. He is one of the kindest, compassionate and most profoundist doctor. It is evident he is loyal to the call of eye specialist. He is very patience and dedicated to the cause. I was very much inspired by wall family portrait in his office. To me, this says much about him. The portrait speaks for itself. It reads (within my finite mind), I have a practice, but I also have a loving family I'd like to share with you. Office staff is very friendly. I've found to be very humbling. I love the atmosphere. It is filled of quietness, stillness and peace. I highly recommend Dr. Solomon to anyone whose in search of a very kind and compassionate eye specialist.

Here is my experience: I had both cataracts done ~ 3 months ago. Prior to surgery, Dr. Solomon said that if not satisfied with the results, that he would correct at no charge. I thought sure...Well vision in one eye was a lot better, but the other was not where I hoped it would be. As of today, everything is great! I have been a health professional for > 40 years so I know most surgeon’s will dismiss any hint of complaint as it is the patient’s imagination. This surgeon is a Dr. of his word, a truly honest professional and compassionate man who has restored excellent vision to me. Do not hesitate to trust your vision in his skillful hands!!!! Also his staff provides the same reliable qualities.
