About Claris
Claris Eye Surgery & LASIK was established in 2009. Keith Carlson, MD is the founder and Medical Director.

“Over the years, I have worked with the best people in the business. I am grateful for those opportunities. I feel that many aspects of patient care have been lost. With Claris, our team is uniquely focused on patient education, and the patient experience, to optimize their vision result.” – Dr. Carlson
This means on-time visits; same-day appointments; advanced clinical technology for improved outcomes; and the use of electronic health records to support greater transparency, improved administration and timely communication with patients.
Claris also has an experienced administrative team committed to helping patients navigate the challenging world of insurance. Claris has contracted with a wide variety of insurance companies and offers financing with approved credit through an independent company to assist with the payment of non-covered services.
