Our (prior) routine optometrist completely ignored, overlooked, and/or missed that both hubby & I…read morehad quite significant cataracts, despite both of us informing the prior doctor that we "couldn't see" even with new prescriptions. I guessed it might be cataracts. I searched for "best cataract surgeon in San Antonio", which led us to San Antonio Eye Specialists. Oh. My. Goodness. What a welcome and helpful difference in doctors, and outcomes! SA Eye Specialists are in a beautiful facility that is sparkling clean and welcoming. The office staff are friendly, and efficient. The medical staff are phenomenal, from our initial screenings & testing all the way up to and including Dr. Membreno, who now has replaced both my cataracts with the Light Adjustable Lens, while my husband went with Dr. Membreno's suggestion of a Toric lens for his situation. We are both absolutely delighted! I've been through an additional, unexpected (by me) procedure after there was clouding connected to my new lenses, before we could start the light adjustments (I think the "clouding" is called YAG or something? Apparently extremely common; I was lucky mine occurred - and was corrected - prior to the adjustments to my lenses.). All was handled quickly, with everything being explained clearly and thoroughly, from beginning to end. Dr. Membreno is phenomenal, and I'd recommend him in a heartbeat, to anyone with eye concerns. What struck me the most about him initially is his knack for being present: When he's with you, he's 10000% tuned in to YOU. It's as if he has nothing else in the world to concern him aside from you. What a reassuring and comforting experience, especially regarding something as important as your eyes and vision! We now consider San Antonio Eye Specialists our one-and-only eye doctor, as we will be coming here for any & all eye issues we have that fall within their purview. As one who has worn glasses or contacts for ~60 years, saying I'm ecstatic to be able to see is an enormous understatement. Colors are vivid and clear like I don't remember seeing, ever. I'm still undergoing adjustments on the light adjustable lens and yet already I'm able to read fairly well, and crochet, without glasses. Very excited and pleased!

The facility is beautiful, clean, and equipped with top-of-the-line technology, which immediately gave me confidence that I was in great hands. The entire staff made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. I usually get a little anxious during eye exams, but they made me feel so comfortable from start to finish. I highly recommend Dr. Iskander and San Antonio Eye Specialists to anyone looking for exceptional eye care. Their professionalism, expertise, and outstanding patient care truly set them apart! Easy 5 stars!

The minute you need further assistant, follow up appt, the procedure didn't go as planned and you need a touch up, anything....good luck. They will kick the can as far as they can.

Their scheduling department is a joke with no visibility. I'd say you get what you pay for but seeing that the price is universal for most shops, who knows. My advice pick a place where you can call the office and actually take to someone to be seen.

My appointment was at 8:10 am on a Monday morning. The office did not even open its doors until…read more8:09 am. The staff was loudly talking how bad traffic was due to it raining I suspect to share the reason for the office being opened late. This isn't the first time either and rain wasn't a factor previously. Mind you everyone else is expected to be there in time - and all patients were by the way. I was not seen until 8:40 am...a full 30 minutes later with no patient in front of me. I can't even understand this as the lady who ended up attending me was assisting no one else before me. So let's get to this young lady assisting me. Don't get me wrong she was nice but new. New to the machines being used, new to proving instructions on when to blink. She needed to ask for help multiple times, she didn't know how to position the machine against my eye. It was a mess. I had to ask about the consent forms I was signing as she failed to mention there were out of pocket costs if the insurance didn't cover it. And these people weren't even mindful enough to try and make up for their own delays. Just getting the pictures of the eyes took 45 minutes. Then there were no rooms available to be seen an hour an 10 minutes after my original appointment. I was honestly at a loss. I have been here now multiple times due to eye dryness and TLC dropped the ball. I have to work too. I have somewhere to be too but there is just a complete disregard for other people, their own schedules and when TLC even schedules their appointments. Update: at 10:08 AM I went to the front desk as I still had not been seen. The doctor finally walked in said " I read your review and I'm firing you as a patient and you need to leave. I won't charge you but leave." I said OK and what about seeing someone else? He said " I don't care just leave." so I left everyone beware of this place after ruining my vision and pain. This is what I get.

The office on Sunset is very nice and has a large practice - 3 surgeons and a number of optometrists for regular exams and surgery follow-ups. Initial exam was thorough and time with Dr. L was generous. He explained EVERYTHING so well - scheduling, process, and surgery - used visual aids, answered every question. Felt VERY confident about what was to come from the very first meeting. The day of each surgery was planned to the tiniest detail, and the team at the physician-owned EYE35 Surgery Center functioned like a well-oiled machine. From the very friendly greeting and attention at the front desk to the super friendly, empathetic nurses, to the fabulous anesthesiologist Dr. Phil, to the procedure itself, to post-procedure instructions. Everything was set up for success! We felt well cared for with personal attention even though their were a number of patients lined up prepared for surgery. Dr. Lehman personally called the evening of the surgeries to make sure all was OK and to answer any questions. Excellent vision outcomes for both of us! We couldn't be happier with Dr. Lehman, his office team, and surgery center team. The BEST!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Yesterday was my surgery day and everything went to plan. My mother drove me to the Alamo Vision Center, the surgery took about 15 mins and I was immediately able to see clearly, leafs on trees etc. I was sensitive to light immediately afterwards, which is normal, and after arriving home and taking about a 2 hour nap I could see so well I could watch tv, read, etc with no problem. The next day(today) I went in to the office for my check up and Dr. Rashid said that everything looked perfect and I could read the 20:15 line for the vision check!
