Services
Montgomery Eye Physicians is a comprehensive eye care practice. We encourage you to explore the various services we provide. We have been proudly serving the Montgomery, Alabama areas with the best eye care services this area has to offer. Our eye care services include cataract treatment, LASIK, cornea treatment, glaucoma, and diabetic eye care.
At Montgomery Eye Physicians, we take great pride in the exceptional eye care service our patients receive. Our highly skilled surgeons have many years of experience and use only the newest, most advanced technology. Our goal is to make sure you receive high quality, individualized attention in a friendly, caring environment.
By placing a small incision in the eye, our skilled surgeons remove the cataract by a process called phacoemulsification, during which the surgeon dissolves the cataract. This method is commonly regarded as the laser technique, but actually it uses sound waves to disintegrate the cataract and then vacuum the microscopic particles from the eye.

The office experience was great, but the problem came after attempting to purchase new glasses. The doctor did not discussed that he was changing me from single vision to progressive lenses. These lenses are considerably more expensive. Thus is some thing that other doctors have spoken with me about before writing the prescription.

The Prattville location is very convenient for me. My wait time is minimal. The waiting area and exam rooms are clean and neat. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Meadows is friendly, professional and thorough. He explains his findings, makes recommendations and answers all of your questions. I am a happy and satisfied patient. I definitely recommend Dr. Meadows office for your eye exams.

My visit was due to eye irritation. I was fortunate enough to get an appointment within an hour of my call. The staff was very accommodating and professional. Everyone was fully masked, which made me feel very safe. Dr. Meadows was very thorough and reassuring in his examination. I was extremely pleased with my visit.

The surgery from the entering the bldg. that morning was extraordinary. The staff was quite cordial and the physician and his assistants did a great job. I couldn't be happier with the results. I'm excited about getting my other surgery on opposite eye. I highly recommend Montgomery Eye Care to anyone who needs cataracts surgery. Good job guys.
