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!”

We absolutely love Heaton Eye Associates! Every single visit has been such a positive experience for my daughter. The entire staff is so kind, patient, and truly goes above and beyond to make kids feel comfortable and cared for. The doctors take their time, explain everything clearly, and make sure kids feel confident and calm through the whole process. You can tell they genuinely care about their patients, not just their vision but their comfort too. The office is warm, welcoming, and runs so smoothlyits such a relief as a parent to know your child is in such great hands. Im so thankful we found Heaton Eye Associates and cant recommend them enough!

Excellent staff. I absolutely love Dr Risner, he is friendly, informative, and never makes you feel rushed. They were extremely busy and it took twice as long as usual but they still took good care of all of us. I highly recommend this facility and Dr Risner.
