Horrendous experience. Worst customer service EVER. If you…read morehave an afternoon to waste, to be lied to and to be treated like a bunch of cattle- this is your place. We arrived 15 minutes early for my Husband's 3:15 appointment. An hour later we had yet to be acknowledged except for taking our money and completing paperwork. Meanwhile, the front desk "trainer" and another clerk were gossiping, laughing and chatting- ignoring myself and others at the front desk waiting. After I approached the front desk, we miraculously were called back- 50 minutes AFTER our appointment time. But we only saw an assistant for tests. We were then put in a full waiting room and told there were at least three patients ahead of us so it would be ANOTHER 25 to 30 minutes before we saw a doctor. So two hours plus for a check up. But it gets better- turns out there were 10 patients ahead of us. So I wouldn't believe a word that anyone at this office says. I was considering using this practice for eye surgery myself. There is no way I would give them a dime of my money with such an inefficient office. If I ran my business this way, I wouldn't have a business. Zero star rating. Do better, Mann Eye Institute.

This review is long overdue but I have to give a shout out to Great Hills Eye Care in Pflugerville…read morefor their outstanding services for the many years I have been going to them. Front desk ladies are always super sweet, have little to no wait time, and the small waiting space is calm and quiet. I see Dr. Patel for my eye exams and he always listens to my concerns, asks how my lenses and contacts are doing, and provides wonderful suggestions. Overall, wonderful staff, clean and pleasant facility, and great pricing with my insurance.

It's conveniently located at Costco with ample parking. I called ahead and booked an appointment, they were able to get me in within a week of calling. The space is quaint but has everything you need and is well kept and clean. Upon walking in I was immediately welcomed and they actually got me started early with some of the testing before seeing the optometrist. The examination was thorough, I felt the optometrist provided extremely insightful and helpful information- I went in experiencing some pain and am already feeling immensely better!

I never have an issue with her coming here because Dr. Busse takes her time and is so patient with my child and answers all of my questions. The staff here are really nice too and help me whenever I have billing questions or reschedules. There are complaints about the waiting area. As a mom I would rather have my child play with toys or read a book than give her my phone. This is not Little Land or Catch Air...it's free entertainment for your child so get some sanitizer afterwards when your child is done playing just like any public place you visit.

Dr. Busse came along and helped my baby since she was little. She was on her 3rd surgery with the first doctor which also gave her " Brown Syndrome". We decided to go with Megyn Busse and she has been her doctor every since. I felt comfort in knowing that Dr. Busse's daughter had the same issue and she always treated us like family. One thing that needs to be said, when she was done with surgery on the "other doctor" her eyes bled all the way home and hours later ( every surgery) with Dr. Busse she was alert going in and she walked out! NO BLOOD AND ABLE TO SEE!! LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. I WAS AMAZED!! Blood was pouring out of her eyes with the first doctor both surgeries. Thanks Dr. Busse for taking care of my baby!

I had fears of an eye infection, and sought out an ophthalmologist. Based solely on Michelle's…read morereview I checked out the training of Dr. Lindsey and found we both attended the same med school. That was enough for me. I scheduled an appointment (I was able to be seen the next day) and the visit went smoothly. The office staff was friendly and efficient, and Dr. Lindsey was delightful. Every good thing Michelle said about Dr. Lindsey was true for me, too. We had a good time chatting about faculty we knew in common. My fears of an eye infection were groundless (my discomfort was most likely due to allergies so she gave me some eyedrops). I had her do a full refraction and eye exam since I was already there. She found my current eyeglass prescription was fine and didn't need to be changed, and that my eyes were perfectly healthy (she said they were likely the healthiest she'd see all day). I'll see her again in a year, and look forward to it. If you need an ophthalmologist who is well-trained in diseases of the eye as well as the normal eyeglass and contact lens fitting, then I recommend Dr. Lindsey. Other physicians who are members of the group practice (The Eye Institute of Austin) appear to be equally stellar in their pedigrees.

Dr. Lindsey is, far and away, the best ophthalmologist I've ever seen. Very thorough, very nice,…read moreand she has a bedside manner that just inspires confidence that she knows what she is doing. She listens well and proposes workable solutions for every little complaint - like loading me up with samples of various eye drops to try with my finicky gas permeable lenses. Her staff is excellent, as well, and for as long as I've been seeing her, she's had the same assistant, the same optometrist, the same contact lens expert - the longevity in this office just says something. Also, she hates waiting at the doctor's office, so she works hard to stay on schedule, which I so appreciate. Doctors who realize that their patients' time is valuable, too, are much too rare. I'd recommend Dr. Lindsey without reservation.

I first found Eyes of Texas Laser Center through Reddit recommendations. I compared this place…read morewith several other popular places in Austin but found Dr. Shawn Wong to be my favorite from an online perspective. So, I decided that my first consultation would be at Eyes of Texas. The entire staff is not only friendly but very informative. It was difficult to ask questions because everything was covered from the start. Dr. Wong is clearly extremely passionate and knowledgeable about his work. I immediately knew that he is who I would trust to take care of my eyes. My surgery was yesterday and I couldn't be happier with the process or results so far. I am really looking forward to the end of the healing process. My only regret is not doing this 10 years ago. I highly recommend that if you are considering getting LASIK surgery to visit Eyes of Texas and Dr. Wong. I was shown the operation room and a comment was made that there was a piece of equipment in there that looked like R2D2. I'm now convinced that Dr. Wong is the Yoda of LASIK. Thank you all for taking care of me.

She told me Dr Wong was very good at spending time with his patients. She was right. He explained very thoroughly my options and what he suggested based upon my situation. This gave me confidence in my decision. Surgery was better than expected, mainly because his pre-op person did a great job explaining what to expect and being coached and encouraged by Dr Wong all thru the procedure. It's not easy going thru this but his consistent encouragement makes it 100% better. All the staff are professional, friendly and on it. I've already recommended them to friends. Come see for yourself.

We saw Dr. Thai for our 10 month old as we had concerns he might have a strabismus. Dr. Thai was friendly and approachable from the get-go. He interacted so patiently with my son as he examined him, was extremely thorough, and took time to explain to us his findings (maybe even too thorough, but I appreciate knowing the full picture when it comes to healthcare). Even though it turns out our son had no eye problems at this time, we got the sense Dr. Thai really cared about our concerns. I've had dismissive doctors in the past, but Dr. Thai is the kind of healthcare provider I always hope to find: he listened, explained every step of his examinations, and he put us at ease. As for the waiting area, yes, it is a bit cluttered with toys, but I found that made for an interesting environment for young children. I'd take some color and clutter that puts my kid at ease over a bland, boring waiting area any day!
