I had cateract removal with premium IOL inserted in July of 2025. I STRONGLY Do NOT recomend Dr Crowder. There are so many reasons, especially now in hindsight, that he was so awful. *I paid top $$ for the highest level Panoptix Pro lens but instead of using Panoptix lens, he used, without my consent, a lens that had been given a RECALL! B&L Envy. My vision was not good, after first surgery, so he offered a "free" replacement with a true Panoptix Pro. *After first surgery, I looked like I had been in a fight, eye was so bloody. I assumed this was normal--happened after 2nd surgery, too. He did blade--it is not normal for eye to be bloody! Also, I was not given the serial # of my 1st surgery lens-- I didn't know that I was supposed to get that either... Until after my second surgery when I was handed the paperwork about my Panoptic serial # and prescription ... I can only assume I didn't get the paperwork 1st time because I had been given the incorrect, recalled lens and he expected to never have to disclose that. *During 2nd surgery, supposed to use Oric machine to verify lens prescription, but so bloody, Oric couldnt get reading. Also, I will add that it should be customary to get steroid anti-inflammation eye drops to reduce swelling--I was not given eye drops. I went back to his office twice in first week following 2nd surgery complaining of headaches and worsening vision. He said it was normal and would improve... The second time I demanded that he give me steroid drops for my eye, which he did. *After 2nd surgery, vision was worse. No correction with machine in office could produce clear vision. I missed work 4 times for this follow up, for him to try to figure out what was wrong--one visit because HM office didnt have the correct machine. Then, after traveling to Gainesville where the "correct" machine was, the nurse dilated my eye then he said he couldn't run the test with eye dilated. So 3rd time, back to Gainesville, he did the test, said he needed more time to study and analyze the problem. I went back 4th time (after my 2nd surgery) and he still had no clue why my vision could not be corrected. At this point, I went to two other specialist to get second and I finally found a had all the correct machines and the mindset to help me figure out what was wrong... What was wrong? Was the lens was not in the correct position in my and it was back and shifted over to the left... That's why nothing anybody could do could give me clear vision because the actual lens was whack inside my eye. This wonderful new Dr was able to do a lens repositioning surgery, after diagnosing the problem. However I can now see better out of this eye and it can be corrected to 20/20 with machines, but without a contact lens or without glasses, it is still not 20/20 in this eye, still blurry, so the second lens that the first doctor put in my eye, was STILL not the correct prescription. *Do NOT allow Dr Jefferry Crowder in Gainesville/Lawrenceville GA to cut on your eye. He is horrible! read more

Dr Crowder performed cataract surgery on me in Sept and Oct of 2024. He significantly damaged my distance vision. Pre surgery no glasses-now I can't drive without glasses. I have pre and post eye exams for proof of this statement. read more
