What Our Patients Are Saying About our Doctors
“I’ve needed glasses since my college days, and they have made it more difficult to play sports and limited my life in general. I wanted to be free from the restriction of glasses! I chose Heaton Eye Associates because they had great reviews, and as a doctor myself, I trusted Dr. Muirhead – we both graduated from the same medical school!”
“After my husband had such an amazing experience with Dr. Nickel, I decided to take the leap too! From the first visit to the surgery, I’ve met some of the kindest and most professional eye care pros. As a cherry on top of a great experience, Dr. Nickel prayed with me before surgery. I highly recommend Heaton Eye Associates!”
“I wanted to see clearly without contacts and glasses. I love that I will be able to enjoy clear, crisp vision for years to come! I chose Heaton Eye Associates because they have a wonderful reputation, and trusted doctors and staff.”
“I was ready to be out of contacts and glasses, and I chose Heaton Eye Associates because they have a great reputation. Everyone who worked with me made me feel comfortable and well taken care of. I recommend Heaton to anyone I know!”
“My experience with Heaton has been absolutely amazing! The staff and doctor made me feel like part of the family. They kept me comfortable and worry free during my procedure. Dr. Hardin walked me through all the steps while I was having my LASIK so I felt completely safe, and there was no pain at all. I’m so happy with my decision!”

I made a great choice in trusting Dr. Nickel with my eyes. His pre-surgical advice was honest and based on his extensive experience. He helped me make the right choices for my desired outcomes when I was feeling a little overwhelmed. He is a skilled surgeon and I found his kind straight forward manner comforting and reassuring. I came to his office with some fear and uncertainty of cataract and lens implant surgery and left with confidence in his ability to guide my decisions and protect my eyes. I am very satisfied.

Great experience at Heaton in Tyler. All the staff was friendly, efficient and professional. Trusting Dr. Nickel with my eyes, was the right choice. His pre-surgery advice was honest, and based on his extensive experience. His surgical skill is excellent and his no nonsense beside manner is reassuring and comforting.
