I can’t recommend Dr. Shez and his team enough for anyone looking for any type of vision surgery! Dr. Shez truly puts the patient and their vision goals/ needs first which is almost unheard of anymore. He and his staff are extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Dr Shez and his staff made it very easy for me to travel 6 hrs for LAL surgery, office visits and treatments. They addressed all of my questions and concerns throughout the entire process with the utmost compassion and understanding. Thank you all so much! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
This clinic and its physicians are top notch, I couldn’t be happier with their service
From scheduling my appointment to arriving at the facility, every step of the process was exceptional. The check-in experience, eye testing, consultation with Shab, and time spent with Dr. Shehz were all handled with professionalism, kindness, and genuine attentiveness. Every team member made me feel welcome, answered my questions thoroughly, and took the time to ensure I was comfortable and informed. Based on my consultation, I learned I was a candidate for the CLR procedure. After the outstanding experience with the staff and Dr. Shehz, along with my own research, I felt confident moving forward and booked my procedure. I’ll be sure to post another update after my procedure to share my experience and results.
I recently had UV adjustable lens replacement with Dr. Shehz at Visionary Eye Surgery, and I can’t recommend him enough! From start to finish, my experience was nothing short of incredible. Dr. Shehz is not only a highly skilled surgeon, but his genuine care for his patients really sets him apart. He even took the time to text me from his personal phone after the surgery to check in on how I was doing—talk about going above and beyond! The staff at Visionary Eye Surgery made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. They truly make you feel like part of their work family, which adds a personal touch that you don’t find everywhere. Honestly, aside from the operation itself, choosing Visionary Eye Surgery was one of the best decisions I've ever made regarding my eye care. I can't say enough good things about this experience. If you're considering eye surgery, look no further! Thank you, Dr. Shehz and the amazing team at Visionary Eye Surgery!
I had CLR on both of my eyes at Visionary Eye, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. From the very beginning, every staff member was kind, professional, and genuinely caring. They made me feel comfortable and well-informed throughout the entire process. The doctor is exceptional—not only highly skilled, but also incredibly accessible for any questions, concerns, or unexpected issues. Knowing I could easily reach out and receive prompt, compassionate care gave me tremendous peace of mind. My results have been wonderful, and I highly recommend Visionary Eye and CLR to anyone considering cataract surgery or needing eye care. Thank you to the entire team for providing such outstanding care!
I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Shehz for my eye surgery. From the initial consultation through the procedure and follow-up care, Dr. Shehz was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to answer all of my questions, which made me feel comfortable and confident every step of the way. The surgery went smoothly, and I am very happy with the results.
Procedure went well! Everyone was kind and attentive! Highly recommend!
Edited 3 weeks later: I can not say enough great things about this experience. I am 1 day post op of my second surgery and I am sitting here typing this review without glasses or contacts. Please if you are on the fence about any of the procedures just go in and get a consultation. The entire staff is top tier from the moment you walk in the door. I am so grateful for Dr. Shahz and his team for granting me the gift of sight again. 100/10 recommend!!!!!! Day 1: Amazing experience today with Dr Shahz and his whole team. The reception area is detailed and inviting with snacks and beverages and the receptionist was so cordial and friendly. The waiting area was pretty full but there was ample seating with comfortable chairs and couches. Everyone on the staff was awesome and the whole experience was relaxed and easy. I came for a free consultation and left with an appointment for my surgery in the same visit. I came for an evaluation for something I thought I wanted and rather than just sell me that they went over all the options and we settled on the best solution for me. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!
Response from the ownerThanks so much for your kind words, we look forward to taking care of you!I had a massive scratch on my cornea and losing my vision. My optometrist called and they squeezed me in within the hour. He was extremely patient and kind. All follow up appointments he fit me quickly and asked the questions I needed not only to save my eye but helped me back track to understand what caused the scratch. He followed up with my optometrist after each visit. The office staff are amazing and incredibly patient when I couldn’t open my eyes and each follow up appointment. Highly recommend!
