Choosing to have eye surgery — whether it’s laser vision correction or cataract surgery — is a big decision. It’s natural to want to hear from people who’ve actually been through it before booking your own consultation. So instead of telling you why patients trust BoydVision, we thought we’d let them tell you.
Here are a few recent stories, shared by real patients on Google.
“Seeing pretty well” one day after SmartSight
As the first and only clinic in BC offering SmartSight (aka SMILE), we’re proud that it’s already changing how quickly patients notice results. One patient, just 24 hours removed from surgery with Dr. Lewis, was well enough to sit down and write a review from her phone — and described being able to see clearly in that short a window. She singled out the care she received from the team beyond the surgery itself, saying the office made her feel right at home from the moment she walked in.
That combination — advanced technology paired with a team that genuinely puts patients at ease — is exactly what we aim for with every SmartSight procedure.
“Painless” and “seamless” from start to finish
Cataract surgery can feel like a bigger decision, especially for patients weighing it for the first time. One recent patient described the entire process as seamless, calling Dr. Boyd a “top-notch surgeon” and praising the clear instructions and clear vision that followed. Another patient echoed that experience almost exactly, noting the modern equipment and comfortable setting, and saying Dr. Boyd’s calm, clear explanations gave her full confidence the whole way through.
Caring for family, not just patients
Some of the stories that mean the most to us are the ones from family members. One patient shared how nervous she and her mother felt going into her mother’s eye procedure — and how that nervousness melted away once Dr. Boyd walked them through everything and made sure her mom felt comfortable at every step. She described the results as incredible, and said seeing her mother happy and confident again meant everything to their family.
Reducing anxiety, one procedure at a time
Surgery, even a routine one, can bring on real anxiety. One patient who had cataract surgery credited Dr. Boyd’s bedside manner with turning what could have been a stressful experience into a relaxing one. They specifically thanked Dr. Boyd and the team for running a practice built on efficiency and genuine kindness.
