Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Wonderful!
Dr. Blanton and his staff are great! I found out about them through a friend. I highly recommend them. It’s a free consultation and they give you price options (which are very reasonable). They are very professional and very kind. I’m very happy with them and I’m looking forward to my surgery.

Follow up 2007 Lasik of right eye
A lot of eye testing to develop the existing state of both eyes prior to seeing Dr Blanton. Technicians very professional!! Dr Blanton continued some more eye examination to confirm that I have cataracts, requiring removal.

Best Experience
The whole office was great! Everyone was polite and friendly. They all seemed to enjoy their jobs and would answer any questions I had. I was really nervous about the surgery, but after talking with Dr. Blanton and multiple workers they all made me realize everything was going to be okay. Dr. Blanton was claiming and broke everything down to me step by step. 10 out of 10 experience. I wish I had done it sooner. I highly recommend Dr. Blanton to anyone looking to have lasik.

EXCELLENT absolutely the best
I was not an easy fix. I was never hurried. He always took extra time with me. At no extra cost we had extra appointments so I would get the best results possible. He answered the hard questions about everything no matter how long it took. I was never hurried or just another number to get out the door. This is THE place to go.

Great experience
My experience at Inland Eye Lasik and Dr. Blanton was great. The actual Lasik eye surgery itself can be a little bit anxiety filled because we aren’t used to having people so intimate with our eyes. But Dr. Blanton talked to me through the entire procedure and explained every single step which made my anxiety levels so much better.

Great Dr very knowledgeable and understanding! Going into it I was very scared but he was very confident and made me feel confidence in him. I had gone to two other drs and did not have the same comfort in going through with the procedure. His office staff is 100% as well. Highly recommend Dr Blanton and his staff for lasik eye surgery.

Great Doctor
Dr. Blanton is a super doctor. He patiently talked with me, no rush, checked my eye carefully, explained solutions. I felt very comfortable talking with Dr. Blanton. And Dr. Blanton is a very experienced doctor. I will refer my family members and friends to Dr. Blanton if they have eye problems.
