Dr. Damon Welch and his excellent surgical staff did a wonderful job with my two cataract surgeries. Besides the great experience with the surgery, the staff at Eye Specialists of Mid-Florida, P.A. all showed a level of care beyond what words can express. You will be extremely happy if you let Dr. Damon and his staff take care of your eye surgery.

From the first visit to the last such a friendly group of people. Damon knows what he is doing, and does a great job. I highly recommend him or his Dad Daniel. They are very good at explaining and answering any questions you may have. Thank you so much for giving back 20/20 vision in my eyes. Blessings
