LaserVue Celebrates 30 Years of Advancing Vision Care in the Bay Area

More than 40,000 procedures, a founding surgeon still leading the practice, and two offices serving San Francisco and Sonoma County.

SAN FRANCISCO AND SANTA ROSA, CA, UNITED STATES, October 26, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — LaserVue Eye Center is marking 30 years of vision care in the Bay Area. Founded in 1996 by Jay Bansal, M.D., the practice now brings together four doctors across two offices, one in San Francisco and one in Santa Rosa.
LaserVue’s Van Ness Avenue office is where many patients begin. Anyone considering eye surgery in San Francisco, whether LASIK, SMILE, EVO ICL, cataract surgery, or lens exchange, can start with a comprehensive exam and a conversation with our eye doctors.

Thirty years of community trust and more than 40,000 vision correction procedures later, LaserVue has a legacy of trust and outstanding results. That record spans more than seven modern methods of vision correction, including LASIK, SMILE, and EVO ICL, along with cataract surgery and the eye health services the practice provides.

Our experience inspires our use of the latest innovative technologies at LaserVue. We have been pioneering new technologies and techniques since 1996, and we continue this legacy with modern vision correction. With each new advancement, we forward our track record of incredible outcomes and life-long relationships built with patients who trust LaserVue with their vision.

Innovation has been part of that story. In 2024, LaserVue became the first practice in the San Francisco Bay Area to offer Robotic Laser Cataract Surgery, which uses detailed imaging taken before surgery to plan key steps in advance.

For laser cataract surgery in San Francisco, the robotic approach turns detailed imaging into a surgical plan before the first incision. That added precision matters most for patients choosing a premium lens, especially one that corrects astigmatism.

People comparing an eye surgery center in San Francisco often ask who will be involved in their care. At LaserVue, Jay Bansal, M.D. and Stephanie Wangyu, M.D., perform procedures. Optometrist Hannah Walsh, O.D., handles comprehensive eye exams, dry eye care, and pre- and post-operative visits at the Van Ness Avenue office.

Sonoma County patients are part of the same story. Those seeking laser cataract surgery in Santa Rosa, CA can find the robotic laser approach at the Mendocino Avenue office, along with the same surgical team and standard of care.

Choosing a cataract surgeon in Santa Rosa comes down to experience and trust. LaserVue’s surgeons, Dr. Bansal and Dr. Wangyu, have performed more than 40,000 procedures combined. Francesca Sefton, O.D., supports patients before and after surgery at the Santa Rosa office.
