Dr. Giyaur’s true enjoyment is in being able to restore eyesight to her patients. She always strives to achieve the most comfortable vision for her patients. In order to do that she spends time listening to her patients to understand their life, occupation and vision goals. For some of them getting rid of glasses is the goal, and Dr. Giyaur offers the latest technology to be able to achieve that. Others desire is to simply return to their younger vision, and we can usually achieve that with lenses, lasers or specialized implants.
With compassion, technology and experience on her side, Dr. Giyaur will work tirelessly to finally help you get the best possible and the most comfortable vision.
For her aesthetic patients, Dr. Giyaur has perfected techniques in non-surgical liquid face-lifting and non-surgical eye bag correction treatment using high quality dermal fillers and Botox. Dr. Giyaur loves to be able to enhance faces without surgery, however, for some, surgical correction is necessary to achieve the desired result. Due to her unique qualifications she is able to offer eyelid corrective surgery or blepharoplasty to her patients. Dr. Giyaur aims to improve the way our patients feel about themselves, to give them more confidence and an improved disposition. Sometimes it’s as easy as placing your trust into her skillful hands.

Love this place! Highly highly recommend LASIK at New York Laser Vision. I had LASIK done by Dr. Giyaur and couldn't be more happier! Very fast and painless procedure, great results and for the good value! My vision now 20/20 and I finally see everyone and everything! It's amazing how my life changed after LASIK surgery.
I’m so happy I found this clinic! I happened to see all three doctors in the multiple visits I had and they all were amazing. Big thank you to Dr. Giyaur, of course. And the ladies at the front desk are the sweetest. Highly recommended!
