Very pleased with the treatment, professionalism, instruction and care provided by Dr. Deese. I feel confident that my issue will resolve or that another option will be available. i

Dr. Deese whirled into the room full of professional enthusiasm and a great attitude. The entire experience was uplifting…but the experience began at the front desk - continued as the tech performed her testing ( she had the greatest smile and just exuded joy with her smiles) .

Dr Deese and Austin Eyes are great! I have Keratoconus corneas. For the past 20 + years I have seen many Ophthalmologists. My vision consisted of double hallo ghosts. Corneal transplants were the only remaining solution. Glasses were no longer helping. Dr Deese explained how Scleral Contact Lens could help me. I am 75 and never wore contact lens before. Dr Deese and the staff at Austin Eyes helped me every step of the way, even when I created the problem. Old ladies can be stubborn.
They laughed at my jokes and kindly and patiently guided this old woman to being able to see better than I have in 30 years! It is wonderful to see only one moon, separate car headlights at night, see the beauty of God's creation clearly again. I have had my scleral lens for 6 months now. I recently had problem due to me falling asleep with the lens in place. BAD! I called Austin Eyes. my eyes were so blood shot and painful! Dr. Deese saw me that afternoon! After a week my eyes are good!

Dr. Deese is new to the Austin area, but looks forward to making it her forever home. In her free time she enjoys outdoor activities, traveling to see friends, and spending time with her family.
