Dr. Carlson and MN Eye Institute were recommended to us by several former patients. Both my husband and I had cataract surgery. Dr. Carlson and his staff were professional and thorough. We had been to another facility before choosing this one and were amazed at the increased amount of testing and the care we were given. We would recommend Dr. Carlson and MN Eye Institute to anyone considering lasik or cataract surgery. - Patricia - 6/03/2026
