In patients' words
"I had LASIK surgery by Dr. Lyon. He was wonderful and I would highly recommend him to anyone. He took time to answer all of my questions in depth and explained in a way I could understand."
— Vitals (Dr. John Lyon patient review)"Had cataract surgery. Did not get me to sleep, so I got to experience the operation up close and personal. Nice guy, but he needs better help. Glad it's over and I never have to go back to him."
