Dr. Labor and his team were fantastic from start to finish during my complicated cataract lens replacement. We used the new rxSight lenses designed for people like me who had RK earlier in our lives. Dr. Labor invested two hours over three meetings before selecting this lens. He helped me understand all aspects of the surgery: benefits, potential outcomes, and risks. I would not have chosen this procedure without the time he shared with me.
His staff was fabulous, too. I will miss my time with Dr. Tran, Jasmine, Randi, Carley, Ally, Meghan, Andrea, and rxSight's representative, Renee. They were highly competent, empathetic, and truly cared about my results.
My new vision is beyond expectation. My left eye is 20/15, and my right eye is 20/25 for distance vision, and it is improving. My near vision is tremendous as well, especially my right eye. I walk away from the process not needing glasses. Not bad for a patient with eight cornea incisions from RK in each eye.
Well done, Team!

I had cataract surgery done in Nov/Dec 2020 from Dr. Labor . I experienced nothing but excellent service from the first visit I had at his office. Starting with Dr. Tran his assistant, I always felt a sense he was a person who loved his job and wanted the best care for his patients. Dr. Tran is truly a gift to this profession. I never felt nervous or anxious when I saw Dr. Tran because he made you feel very relaxed and comfortable and answered all questions you may have during your visit. I am completely satisfied with the service I have received from Dr. Labor and his staff and will definitely refer my family and friends to him.

I was totally satisfied and I would highly recommend Doctor Labor and all of his staff members after receiving an exceptional and professional service from my cataract, YAG, and Lasik surgeries at his facility. My eye sight for both eyes after completion of these procedures was much better than I could have ever have hoped for. I believe Doctor Labor's extensive background, knowledge, and experience you won't find anywhere else. I would like to take this time to thank Doctor Labor and all of his staff for an unbelievable eye correction experience ending my need of glasses and obtaining a great vision.

Dr Labor and staff are truly amazing
This is a very busy medical practice and they all truly do their beat to make sure everyone is taking care of fully
And time is spent with you. They will sit and listen to all of your concerns and ease any anxiety you may have. Unlike other Ophthalmic practices where you try to explain your sight or sensation you may have and they just nod their head at you and keep typing or cut you off and move on
That doesn't happen at Eye Consultants of Texas
You can see it in each one you come into contact with. They are hearing you.
Dr Labor is very thorough and requires the best from all of his staff
I've seen reviews on the wait time or the total time there
But honestly I'd rather wait and know I'm getting the best for my eyes then be rushed through and then wonder if I got the best service
These are my eyes and we can't get new ones
It's not like any other body part
And simply be replaced like a hip etc....
So I hope this helps you

I was very impressed with Dr. Labor's thorough exam process and the time he took to explain everything while making me feel very comfortable about the whole cataract surgery process. His surgery center was cleaner than any hospital I've been in and staff and nurses were exceptional. I consider Dr. Lanier to be an outstanding doctor and have already recommended him to several people and I haven't even had my final check-up yet.

My mother has had a horrible experience with the office staff and she was not appropriately taken care of after surgery.
She has overpaid for her patient portion for her surgery and no one will call her back. Dr. Labor if you care about your patients, get an office staff that will take care of your patients.

Your staff of nurses, in the operating area, were so very sweet and caring ... they are very special and made my day!
Please give them a "you done good for me," (yes, i'm country)

I had one cataract removed in 2014. I felt extremely comfortable with this doctor the minute he walked into the room. He is very professional yet very courteous. He has always had time to answer any question that I have had. I would and have recommended him to several people.
I never had any problems with the surgery and today I have 20/20 vision in that eye.
I am now having the other cataract removed and I have complete confidence that I will do just as well with this surgery.
