"I had my cataract pre-op visits and cataract surgery done at the Pointe West Blvd. location with post-op follow up appointments at the Ellenton and University offices, all with Dr. Manning. Each office has a very caring and thoughtful staff. It is a wonderful feeling to know that a person can go to any Eye Associates location and have the same consistent and timely service and be treated the same by a smiling Eye Associates staffer, no matter the location. I highly recommend the skilled Dr. Manning for his attentiveness and I appreciate him answering all my questions in a non abrupt manner. In my opinion, The Eye Associates is the only place to go for all a persons eye care needs."

"You certainly have my permission to use my comments asserting what an excellent practice you have, and how you were able to handle my situation with understanding and fine medical care. The front office staff was most helpful in calming my anxieties and Jennifer was an excellent ophthalmic assistant. Dr. Han was instrumental in diagnosing my retinal problem and was most pleasant and professional. Dr. Han continued in the fine tradition of Dr. Roman Pravak, who had examined me some time ago and who will be following up shortly on my present condition."

"I liked everything about the facility, specifically ALL the staff were encouraging, supportive, caring, informative, professional, & comfortable environment (including the thoughtful shawls / blankets), which is greatly appreciated. Thank you! I would absolutely recommend The Eye Associates to my friends and family (and already have!). The caring attitude of each and every individual, from Dr. D to all of his professional team and staff are exceptional! Their willingness to listen to questions and concerns is very much appreciated, and their patience is too, for the patient! Thank you so much again!"

"They are very organized. Everyone was extremely kind, patient, and caring. I don’t see any area of improvement that could be made. I was apprehensive at first – but the staff made me feel comfortable, and I knew I was receiving the necessary attention."

We will certainly recommend your office to all."

"The doctors and staff are always attentive and thorough. The Surgery Center was extremely efficient, and could not have been more professional. The best part was when Dr. Silverman himself called that night, just to check up on me. The surgery went exactly like they said it would, and I love my new vision."
