Toward the end of medical school, she realized ophthalmology would be a good fit for her as she has a penchant for small things.
Dr. Harris performs corneal transplants, cataract surgery, removal of pre-cancerous and cancerous growths as well as many other surgical procedures on the eye. Cornea transplants can be full or partial thickness and different surgical skills are required for each type. Dr. Harris also performs LASIK, another procedure in which she can restore sight and dramatically improve her patient’s vision. Additionally, she sees patients from the InterFaith Clinic and Knoxville Area Project Access, as being able to make a difference in the lives of those in need is a benefit of ophthalmology that she cherishes and holds dear to her heart.
Practicing amongst the breathtaking Smoky Mountains allows Dr. Lauren Harris to explore her passions outside of patient care. Having a proclivity towards staying active, in her free time, she enjoys hiking, running, water skiing, wake surfing, snowboarding, and traveling.

Very Sweet, Direct Straight Forward. TELL YOY WHAT YOU NEED TI DO.VERY WELL .MANNERD SPECIALIST.I WILL BE RECOMMEND ALL MY FRIENDS TO CHOOSELAUREN HARRIS AS Their Eye Specialist.
Very helpful and encouraging to my eye needs, thanks
She covers her face/mouth/nose with a “surgical” mask on an “office” visit. I’d appreciate seeing and recognizing ”my HCP” . Totally unacceptable! I’m not going to “spit” into her mouth or nasal area.
Dr Lauren Harris is great! Extremely professional and knowledgeable. However, we waited two hours to see her. I do realize she is a cornea transplant specialist but ALL the specialist are the same regarding wait time. I’m not sure the remedy for that, maybe less patients or add more doctors. Rating would have been a 5 but I feel I need to reflect the wait time.
Wait to long. 9:40 appointment. Seen after 11:50.
Very nice
Busy place but well organized.
Lauren is great!
I feel I get an excellent exam from her and that she takes my eye health very seriously.
Dr. Harris is a very competent and meticulous eye surgeon who makes sure that her work is always perfection.
