Dr. Vance and the team at Restoration Eye Care are absolutely incredible! I had cataract surgery on both eyes last month, and the results are life-changing. From the initial consultation to the post-op follow-ups, everyone was so professional, kind, and informative. I can see colors and details I haven't seen in years. Highly recommend!

Response from the owner 1 week ago

Thank you for sharing your story, Sarah! We are absolutely thrilled to hear about your beautiful new vision. Dr. Vance and the entire staff enjoyed assisting you through your cataract recovery journey.

Getting LASIK done here was the best decision of my life. I had severe astigmatism and was hesitant, but Dr. Vance explained the procedure clearly and put all my anxieties to rest. The procedure itself was fast and painless, and I woke up the next morning with 20/20 vision. Outstanding facility and state-of-the-art tech!

Wonderful experience for my annual eye exam and medical history update. The hygienist and receptionist were extremely friendly. No long waiting times, and their patient safety protocols are top-notch. They make sure you are super comfortable.
