The Eye Center

Dr. Risch was very helpful and supportive of my cataract and lens replacement surgery. I was scared of the procedure but the entire staff and surgical team answered all my questions and made my surgery a nonevent. The entire event took about 2 hours from entering the front door and leaving to go home. They do one eye at a time. I slept when I got home and the next day my vision was like I was 20 again!!! No glasses, no pain, no more cataracts, and no more worry! This short procedure changed my life for the better. Thank you Dr. Risch and staff!

Dr. Brown and her assistant (Savannah?) were top notch.Dr. Brown diagnosed the problem and prescribed some over-the-counter solutions. The staff were friendly and helpful. Can't speak to the surgical side of the operation. The automated phone service was less annoying than some others. The humans here treated me warmly and efficiently.

Dr. Shaver and Maddie are making a big improvement in my life through the light treatments for my dry eyes. It's wonderful to no longer feel like my eyes are sunburned. Along with being very professional, they are also very caring and kind. I am so fortunate to be their patient.

The doctors are fabulous and the front staff is amazing. I was told I could set up the office portion of my procedure on payments through the eye center, which I did and I make those payments every month. Every month I get a bill showing my account is past due(even though I am on a current payment plan). I also get a letter stating if you are on a payment plan please call the office. So I call the office, every month and am told if your plan is current you do not need to call. I questioned why my account shows past due if my plan is current and never get a good explanation if they return my call because I've only ever been able to leave a message. As advanced as this office is in technology one would assume their billing software would be as efficient.

Great experience from arrival to exit. Checking in was easy and a short wait to see doctor. Great information and explanation from doctor. I have been going to The Eye Center for over 50 years and have never had a unpleasant visit. Great employees and great doctors.

Dr. Risch performed RLE surgery for me in February of 2025, its been 8 months and I feel this needs an update from the original review. I was in a 5.25+ when I had the surgery for reference and had worn glasses since 4 years old, contacts at 14 and by 47 contacts and readers to see. The first month was adjusting to the new setup, the first week was a lot but my eyes never hurt, not once. Night halos are a lot. I did not drive at night until month 3 after surgery. The transition from day to dark was a lot as well. My eyes were not sure how to understand it with the new lenses. Fully dark was ok except for the halos while riding in the car, you just have to go with the flow. Daytime was great. Lowlight I still needed readers just a little bit if I was in a restaurant reading a menu. By month 2 my eyes were fully healed per my eye doctor. By summer I am at the lake and have forgotten I ever wore or needed glasses/contacts/readers. The transition from day to night is still not my favorite but is way better than it was the first 4 months. As a side note being a contact lens wearer and never having an issue cutting onions, cutting onions was hilarious the first time having new lenses. I had forgotten how spicy they are! I am now 8 months in and I forget often that I couldn't see months ago, night vision is great, day vision is great. Lowlight is good. If the font is 6 I have a little trouble and need a pair of readers. Anything above that and I can see perfect. This has been the BEST decision I have ever made for myself. I regret NOTHING, Doctor Risch is great, and I don't believe that there is a better eye surgeon out there. If you are on the fence about the surgery, don't be. I wouldn't have posted another review 8 months later while sitting at my desk with no readers, in low light on a cloudy day thinking to myself how amazing it is to be able to see. With my office lights off at that. Best decision ever. Thank you everyone at the Eye Center, the Surgery center across the road and my Doctor.

Dr. Risch performed clear lens exchange on both of my eyes in May of 2024. I did not want to wait till my cateracts got bad enough to have insurance pay for the surgery. I couldn't see near or far without strong prescription glasses. He went over the pros and cons of each premium lens types. He did one eye at time starting with my worse eye. I was afraid to do both at the same time.I selected the Panoptix lens. I can see very well during the day but, I do experience halos at night just like he said that I would. It has been wonderful not to wear glasses. I recently got to go snorkeling in the Caribbean. It was wonderful to be able to see the fish, turtles, and rays again. Thanks Dr. Risch.
