Why Choose West Georgia Eye Care?

West Georgia Eye Care Center has been serving the Columbus community with exceptional eye care since 1951. The clinic has since grown to become the largest multi-specialty ophthalmic practice in the area, with 3 locations, eleven ophthalmologists, three optometrists and a staff of more than 140 people.

West Georgia physicians are passionate about the health of your eyes and the success of your surgery. They continue to stay up-to-date with the latest technology and advancements in eye care. In keeping with their goal of providing superior eye care, the physicians of West Georgia Eye Care Center were the first to perform iLASIK on the IFS platform in the state of Georgia and the first to offer Columbus the Refractive Lens Exchange procedure.

Our state-of-the-art Laser Vision Center is located at our North Office on Whittlesey Blvd. There, the region’s only corneal specialists perform state-of-the-art LASIK and refractive procedures.

Hearing

Hearing loss is the most common and most frequently undiagnosed, untreated medical condition in our patient population. 1 in 4 Americans beyond the age of 65 suffer from some form of hearing loss. That’s more than 25 million people! Hearing loss can affect anyone at any age, even children. The causes of hearing loss can vary from simple wax buildup in the external ear canal to a more serious, non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss. People suffering from hearing loss usually wait much longer than necessary to get help.

As with your vision, early intervention and corrective action is key to restoring your quality of life. 90% of all patients with hearing loss can be tested and treated right here within our practice under the professional oversight of our physicians. For all others, we can provide timely referrals to other specialty care within the local area.

What Our Patient Say About Us

“LASIK changed my life. Your vision touches every aspect of your day-to-day experience, it’s the way you see the world. When I got laser vision correction at West Georgia Eye Care Center, I felt like my whole world was new. It’s like falling in love…it changes everything!”

Faisel, Tampa, FL

“This year the doctor said I had cataracts. After having my cataract surgery with Restor, I can see better than I could with my reading glasses, especially up close.  I love the new lens; I had no idea it was possible to see this well. I can read the road map now; I don’t even have to look for my reading glasses first!”

J. Rogers, Columbus, GA

“Caring and courteous people are sometimes hard to come by. I do believe West Georgia Eye Care snatched them all up! Thank you for your wonderful work.”
