In January 2017 I had cataracts in both eyes removed. I want to thank Dr Lewis and Dr Devlin for the outstanding results and excellent care I received. Dr Devlin provided me with a detailed explanation of the procedure in addition to a thorough description of what I could expect to occur throughout my recovery. I didnt even have to worry about transportation, as van service to and from the surgical facility was available for a nominal cost. Prior to surgery I wore Monovision contact lenses and wore glasses for night driving. Dr Lewis was able to implant Monovision lenses, which means I can continue to just wear glasses for night driving with no glare issues. The procedures were a breeze. I experienced no pain or discomfort whatsoever. I used my prescribed eye drops, followed all post-operative instructions and kept all of my appointments - all of which I believe were key to my excellent results. I will be recommending Dr Lewis and Dr Devlin to friends and family that may need cataract surgery. My vision is better now than it was twenty years ago all thanks to Dr Lewis and Dr Devlin.

I am Bette, not Kip Simons, my husband. I had left cataract surgery on Jan. 8, 2016. I went home with a corneal abrasion. On Jan.15, I had to return for the right eye. I asked to speak with Dr. Lewis to tell him about the abrasion & a new burning sensation and loss of peripheral vision in the left eye. He became irate & yelled "youre disconnected from reality", that "I dont work for you", "youre here for my services" and "I dont need a "school marm telling me what to do", and "cancel the surgery" to the nurse. I reminded him that I postponed chemo to get both eyes done a week apart. He then ordered a test which proved the peripheral vision loss. He said I "wasnt crying wolf after all". No, I wasnt lying. This man is unstable & disrespectful. He will instantly flip from nice to nasty. Beware.

The professionalism, efficiency, and caring of Dr. Lewis, Dr. Sherman, the rest of his professional staff, and his entire support staff were self-evident from the moment that I walked in the door. My wait was minimal. The waiting area was very pleasant and all of the examination rooms were immaculate with extensive up to date instrumentation. I was not rushed, everything was carefully explained to me, and all of the explanations and answers to my answers were very comprehensive and understandable. Dr. Lewis was quickly able to pinpoint my problem and provide me with the proper treatment. You cannot do any better than Dr. Lewis, his staff, and his office.

I could not have had a better experience.I had been wearing glasses for 70 years with a major correction. Following two recent cataract surgeries, I have near perfect vision for the first time in my life. Dr. Lewis and Dr. Devlin epitomize what a physician should be- highly competent and totally decent people. Thank you for improving the quality of my life.

Dr. Lewis & Dr. Devlin are quite honestly 2 of the best doctors I have ever met. Dr Lewis is honest with his diagnosis.Another doctor was ready to operate on the spot - Dr. Lewis said I did not need it! They are both so personable and caring. I can not recommend them enough. Their equipment is far more advanced than what Ive seen anywhere.

The office has the most advanced testing equipment I have seen. The staff is warm and they take the time to explain everything. I had a pleasant experience when I had my eyes evaluated for LASIK. Unfortunately I was not a good candidate for corrective eye surgery. I will be using this office when the time comes to consider cataract surgery.

I had LASIK in 2001 and still enjoy great vision. My daughter was a better candidate for an intraocular contact lens (Visian ICL). She is thrilled with her vision and the entire experience. Dr. Lewis is a caring surgeon with a great office and excellent results.
