As a contact wearer, I have always had issues with dry eyes. Dr. Theriot has provided a great plan to help diminish and eradicate the dry eye problem. I also appreciate the fact that the reader gains access to a workbook. It is a useful accompanying tool. Simply put, this book is a great help and a good read.

Once again you made me celebrate! Exam and tests were a breeze today. Thank you Dr. Bryan Lusk, Dr. Pam Theriot, plus your outstanding staff. I will forever be thankful for my corneal transplants and my cataract removal that Dr. Bryan did over two years ago. My great grandmother went blind from this same disease, and yet Dr. Bryan changed my destiny by restoring my vision. I celebrate every single day!!! Sincere thanks, and I highly recommend these physicians.

The pre-op appointment with Dr. Lusk and Dr. Theriot was very thorough and complete and I knew that I was in good hands. Procedure day itself was very smooth. Everyone involved was very calming and informative and before I knew it, I was walking out of the clinic and could SEE! I was seeing 20/15 the day after the procedure and have maintained this excellent vision since. My healing was textbook, mild discomfort for a few days but no pain. I wake up every morning just amazed at what life looks like without glasses!!! I’m so glad I chose to do it!
