I have been a patient of Dr. Mitchel Wong for many years. In 2013 Dr. Wong told me my cataracts would probably be removed in 2-3 years. However, in February 2014 my left eye deteriorated quite a bit and by August I could no longer read or see much of anything with my left eye. I had my annual visit with Dr. Wong whereby he told me I was using one eye (right) and he had me scheduled for cataract surgery on October 20th. The staff presented an explanation of the cataract and had me watch a video for further information on cataracts, the surgical procedure, and other pertinent information. On the day of the surgery, the nurses were fabulous and very caring; they explained the procedure and provided medication and eye drops for prepping. During the procedure, Dr. Wong patiently told me what to do – I felt comfortable during the surgery. I will tell you it is cold in the surgery suite. I got a kick out of the talking computer as each process was completed. I went home with a patch over my eyes and instructions on the use of the eye drops and what not to do. At bedtime I had to take off the patch and put the eye drops in my eyes. I noticed the crystal lamp being so clear and bright. Upon awakening the next day I took off the eye patch and was astounded by the clarity, crisp, colorful world I had long missed. I went outside and become engrossed in everything I was seeing. The world was beautiful – even the paved street. I stood there closing the left eye and comparing the difference between it and my right eye’s vision. To say the least I was on cloud nine. Dr. Wong had given me one of the greatest gifts – my vision and I am looking forward to getting a new lens for my right eye. I knew Dr. Wong was a great Ophthalmologist when he restored some vision and color back for my mom’s eyes during the early1990s. So, I knew that if ever I needed treatment for my eyes, I would have the best care. I would like to mention that Dr. Wong has state-of-the-art equipment that are complex in structure that perform amazing tasks. Whether or not anyone reading this has a problem with vision, it is important to have yearly checkups. Having just a slight blurred vision and using readers may not take care of the situation. There could be an underlying issue. If you are diabetic, is it crucial to have examinations done by an Ophthalmologist. I highly recommend Dr. Mitchel Wong for all your visual needs. He is very caring and understands how valuable your vision is. Also, his staff are amazing. Thank you, Dr. Wong for giving my sight back!!!!!!!!!!

It was a great experience, she do her job very professionally, she treated me better than any other doctor that I have seen before. If I need another surgery, I would definitely go back and see her. I am very thankful and happy with the surgical job she did to my eye.

My 85 year-old grandmother had cataract surgery with Dr. Odette in October 2014. We were all thrilled with the quality of service we received. From the front desk, the surgeon and medical staff, to the optical personnel everyone was top notch. My grandmother has not seen this well for as long as she can remember. Great staff, great results!

I came to Austin Eye as a new patient, knowing I was ready for cataract surgery. Dr. Shannon Wong and his staff did my exam and scheduled my first surgery. Upon arrival, Shelby made me feel totally “at home” and helped me relax. The first surgery went very well, and I am amazed by the light and colors I see again! I asked to have my other eye done the following week, with the same excellent care and attention. I have had no problems, and even without glasses, I can see to drive and do all the normal things I need to do. Thanks, Dr. Shannon and all your staff for excellent care. What I had dreaded having done has been completed with care and perfection.

Austin Eye was extremely professional. One of the nicest and cleanest offices. Dr. Shannon Wong and his staff made every visit pleasant. They answered every question with detailed information. Dr. Wong was always available by phone or email. I truly thank Austin Eye for making my eye surgery a positive experience.
