As with my first surgery with Texan eye a few years ago, my recent experience was one of deep appreciation and gratitude. The team are professional, warm and effective in their work. If there was a weak link in this operation it lands with this reviewer who didn't always pay adequate attention to their clear and detailed instructions. Fortunately they are understanding of sub-optimal patients. Very pleased and grateful..
On my first visit, I was checked in promptly. I had to wait maybe 3 minutes. Then I s taken from waiting to diagnostic testing. I took of a variety of diagnostic exams, and the had an extensive visit with Dr. Tom Walters. Everything was most professional. Dr. Walters was extremely patient with my numerous questions. He carefully considered my questions and continually answered questions I hadn't even thought of. He has decades of experience and a shop full of the most up-to-date medical machines for the eye I have ever seen. Everything went very well for ...
I have been getting excellent eye care at Texan Eye for many years. My recent exam was no exception. Dr. Aschenbeck, the tech team, and the reception staff were all professional, friendly and helpful. Extensive screening tests were explained as they were performed.

I enjoy being cataract free for over 1 year now with clear vision restored. I highly recommend the staff of professionals at Texan Eye Center and the excellent care and customer service provided!
I had my post-surgery appointment yesterday with Dr. Landry and the wonderful staff at Texan Eye, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by the woman at check-in with the biggest, warmest smile. She immediately made me feel welcome and cared for. Every person I encountered was friendly, professional, and genuinely kind. The appointment went smoothly, and Dr. Landry took the time to make sure everything was healing well and that I was doing great. And then, as I was leaving, the woman at ...
