Zero wait time, flexible scheduling, and the professional, friendly staff make appointments a pleasure. Dr. Blanton did my LASIK 20 years ago and because of that experience I sought him out for my PRK touch ups now. I would never go anywhere else

Dr. Christopher L. Blanton evaluated me for LASIK suitability and I couldn’t be happier with the visit. He took the time to go over my exam results, explain whether I was a good candidate, and walk me through options and expectations in a way that was easy to understand. Very knowledgeable, patient, and reassuring. The staff was also friendly and the appointment was smooth from start to finish.

I would Be happy to refer anyone to this practice and will be returning if the need arises. Thank you!

I love this office. It is a little far from me and I was running late in traffic, I called and they said that was no problem. As soon as I got there they saw me right away. Every time I have been here they are always quick and efficient. Plus I still have amazing results from my lasik! I have recommended all my family to come here.
