Recently, I had my cataracts removed from my right eye and a lens inserted at the AustinEye facility. It was quite an experience. The entire procedure was not what I expected. It was a very pleasant event. The nurses and attendants were fantastic and very concerned about my well-being. They treated me better than any clinic or hospital that I have attended. While I was in Room One, a nurse, I believe named Dawn, spoke in a soft warm voice saying ”you have only 1 minute and the pressure will be relieved, you have 50 seconds and are doing great, you have only 30 seconds to go, etc.” Her soft, calm voice made me feel comfortable and very relaxed. The day before my surgery, my wife and I had our toenails trimmed. The pain from clipping my toe nails was much worse than the Cataract laser procedure. I felt no pain during the surgery. The following day I had to drive to the clinic for a Post-operative examination. While driving to the AustinEye clinic, I did not wear my glasses. I couldn’t believe how much my eye sight improved. I could read distant signs and still view the readings on my van’s dashboard. I was informed my vision for my right eye was 20–25. Both Dr. Bui and I were extremely pleased on how while the surgery went and my existing condition. My appointment at the Clinic was 5 pm. I left about 6:15 pm and went to Catfish Parlor to pick up some grilled catfish for my wife. It started to get dark on my way home and my left eye was creating a problem because of the night glare and halos from other vehicles. I had to shut my left eye and view only through my right eye. What a difference it made. With only my right eye, everything looked natural and clear. I am 87 and the joy of my new vision makes me feel like I am only 65. I am looking forward to removal of the cataracts in my other eye. Overall, I am extremely pleased with Dr. Bui and especially with the wonderful staff of AustinEye. Anthony Burzynski

They Educate, & give a thorough exam and I’ll be back.

I had elective lens replacement surgery to eliminate the need for readers, I am so happy with my decision to do so. I could see better immediately following surgery and back to 20/20 the next day! I was very impressed the entire process, from consultation to post-op check the day following my procedure. The staff is professional and very friendly and made me feel comfortable and well taken care of. The office staff is organized and helpful, the treatment staff warm and caring. Dr. Shannon Wong was excellent and I felt I was in good hands throughout the process. By the time I got home and relaxed after my procedure, they were already calling to check on me and be sure I understood their instructions until they saw me the next day. I would absolutely recommend Austin Eye, Dr Shannon Wong and staff and the lens replacement procedure in general. I’m three weeks out and thrilled that I haven’t used a pair of glasses since! The eye patch is only worn for that day and then at night for 7 days, the second photo is of my eye on Day 2. My eye was pretty normal looking after that. No eye makeup before and after surgery, but it was worth it.

Best doctor I have ever been to. Staff is excellent top to bottom. Had cataract surgery and could not ask for a better experience. Facility is tops. Little or no wait . Dr. Shannon Wong is the best. update, 2 years now and I couldn’t be better. This place is the best. Thanks to Dr. Wong, he is great. Don

They were extremely professional and thorough every step of the way…I was educated on the cataract lens replacement process and all of my options. After I got home from my initial exam and consultation I had additional questions regarding how dry eye and previous RK surgery would effect the outcome and recovery. Dr. Shannon Wong called me back himself and took his time to answer all of my questions, which relieved my concerns. The nurses who prepped me for the procedure were knowledgable and had my utmost comfort in mind. The surgery was quick, easy and I am looking forward to having my second eye done next month.
