**Review for Dr. Davidson and Staff**
I recently underwent cataract surgery with Dr. Davidson, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. Before the procedure, I was struggling with my vision, especially seeing colors clearly; everything appeared yellow and dull. However, after the surgery, my world transformed--colors are now vibrant and vivid, and I can see with incredible detail.
Remarkably, my reading ability has improved dramatically, allowing me to read without glasses for the first time in years! This has made a significant difference in my daily life.
Additionally, I want to commend the entire staff for their exceptional care and professionalism. From my initial consultation to post-operative follow-ups, everyone was attentive and supportive, which made the entire experience much more comfortable.
I truly appreciate the competence and skill of Dr. Davidson and the entire team. If you're considering cataract surgery, I highly recommend seeking their expertise! -Franklin C.

Dr Davidson has been my Dr for 32 years since he did the first LASIK procedures at Jules Stein, UCLA.
When you have anything done with your eyes you have to have patience and trust the doctor.
No two people have the same eyes so outcomes can take a little extra work on the doctors part and I can assure you that Dr Davidson will work with you until you get the best vision possible.
Don't expect to go in and immediately have 20/20 vision. You may need tweaks along the way.
Dr Davidson is one of the best eye surgeons I know!!! -Ruth F.

Great Doctor, amazing staff of nurses and office staff and a great followup doctor with Dr. Gordon. I'm 68 years old and very dry eyes caused by a bad lasix surgery 20 years ago Contacts dried my eyes out horribly and I don't do well with glasses so my life was a constant battle of trying to get a contact lens to stay in my eyes. I often scratched my eyes with them or they just fell out. YIKES. Recently I've done both eyes and I LOVE THE RESULTS. His operating room at The Lynn Eye Group in 1000 Oaks is state-of- the- art with an entire group of nurses and doctors there in case of any problems. I highly recommend them both. Especially Annell, the doctor's scheduler - wow was she helpful from start to finish.

I have been a patient of LEMG for over 30 years. As a commercial pilot, flawless eyesight is critical to my line of work. My interaction with Dr. Hymas has been outstanding. I had 20/400 corrected to 20/20 by contacts. I wanted Lasik, but he advised to wait for cataract surgery several years down the road, so I followed his advice. In 2020 Dr. Davidson did cataract surgery - lens replacement. It's difficult to put into words how extremely professional Dr. Davidson and his staff were during this procedure and post surgery care. There were absoulutely no negative experiences during or after the surgery, and most importantly, my eyesight went from extremely poor without correction to a perfect 20/20, without any need for glasses/contacts. For over three years now, my eyesight has been flawless; both far sight and near sight, meaning no reading glasses, using the "PanOptix" lenses that Dr. Davidson originally recommended. I currently see Dr. Nguyen, (aka "Dr. Py") at LEMG and continue to receive outstanding eye care. We are very fortunate to have such a great team of eye professionals so close to home in the Conjo Valley! -Wyant L.

After a botched cataract surgery by another doctor, I went to Dr. Davidson for a consultation. He was very patient and answered all my questions. He reassured me that replacing the lens would be the best thing to do. 2 weeks later he removed the questionable lens and replaced it with the proper one. I can't say enough about Dr. Davidson other than he was wonderful and i am extremely pleased with the outcome. I highly recommend Dr. Davidson to anyone needing cataract surgery.

I just had cataract surgery by Dr. Davidson and it went really well. The whole experience was made easier from start to finish by a sympathetic and professional group of staff, from the initial consultation, through eye measurements and scheduling, and especially during the surgery itself. The nurses make you comfortable. There is no pain and the surgery goes very quickly. I got the laser operation with multifocal implants, so my vision will be corrected. The whole thing is amazing and I have great respect for doctors and nurses in general after the experience. Be sure you get the best doctor for your surgery like I did, because we are talking about your eyes, and that is the rest of your LIFE!​​​

​
THANK YOU both for everything. John is so happy with his vision and I am truly appreciative of your efforts.
John: Your surgical skills and efforts towards perfection are truly appreciated. His vision is FANTASTIC.
Desi: the staff at both centers are great. They definitely made the entire experience easier, especially during these crazy COVID times.
John and I are truly thankful for his vision and the support of you both.

I just had my 2nd eye operated on for cataract surgery. Dr. John Davidson was my surgeon. I am extremely happy as he used the Alcon PanOptix lenses for implantation. WOW. One day post op I am seeing better than 20/20 for distance and able to read the smallest print on the eyedrop bottle. Who Knew? If anyone is contemplating cataract surgery, you would have to be crazy not to have this new technology lens as it is remarkable! NO GLASSES! No Kidding! Dr. Davidson was recommended as being the best in this region by a number of folks in the industry and he did not disappoint. He is a gentleman and a great surgeon. Thank you to him and his staff for the new set of eyes! I feel as if I'm 18 again! Sincerely, John S

I had the cataract in my right eye taken care of in February, and just had the left one done this week. Both times I was incredibly impressed, not only with the outcome, but with the seamless process and the amazing team that Dr. Davidson has created. His whole team worked together like a well-oiled machine from start to finish (and follow-up). Watching the surgical team was like seeing a final episode of 'Dancing with the Stars.' I guess because they all having been working together for so many years they have developed a sixth sense of each others' whereabouts and needs. And the atmosphere was one of caring, compassion, skill, and a joy that radiated from them because they truly loved what they were doing. My outcome was also impressive to me; I feel like I see better now than I did as a child. I chose the PanOptix Trifocal lens, which fortunately also corrected my astigmatism, thus making a great difference in my ability to see clearly.

I was impressed with the very friendly and inviting environment upon entering the facility. It turned out that one of the office assistants was a former student of mine! Dr. Davidson was very friendly and thorough in answering my many questions and it certainly lowered my level of anxiety about cataract surgery. The visit wasn't rushed and I felt reassured that I was going to be in the care of a caring and experienced specialist. I'm actually "looking forward" to the surgery knowing that I will be in good hands.

I am a 55 year old who had cataract removal and the new PanOptix lens implants with Dr. John Davidson. I had my left eye done in March 2020, and my right eye done in July 2020. On my 1 day post-op appointment, I was seeing 20/20, in fact I could read the extremely small print on the eye drop bottle. To say I am delighted is an understatement, I simply could not be happier with the outcome.
I wish not only to thank Dr. Davidson, but his extremely professional, kind staff. I have been working closely with Dr. David Gordon, who is so caring, answering all questions. Maria, Dr. Davidson's surgery scheduler has made this journey an easy one. The entire staff at Lynn Eye Surgery Center, from check in to check out, everyone there made me feel so comfortable.
I am thankful and grateful beyond words.
Sincerely,
Carla Williams

Dr Davidson is the best Dr. I have come across! I needed to get cataract surgery, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my eyes! I had an artificial lens put in and the professionalism, courtesy, expertise, and precision of he and his staff is truly amazing! Maria his coordinator always calls you by name, which is a very personal courtesy that in this busy practice is really remarkable! From the appointment to the surgery and the whole process is explained every step of the way making you feel comfortable! No question goes unanswered! I am going to have my other cataract out and I am not nervous or afraid! This is how comfortable they make it! Don’t have anyone else touch your eye but Dr. Davidson, after all you only have one pair of eyes and your sight is irreplaceable! Trust him and his capable staff! Eileen a very satisfied customer!

"PanOptix is a game changer. I was tired of multifocal Toric contact lenses plus glasses so I had PanOptix before I developed cataracts. I now feel like I'm 20 years old again or even younger since I got glasses 42 years ago when I was 14. I can read everything at all distances...there are no gaps in what I can see at any distance. I love it."

"Re cataract surgery: Exceptional! I don't think I have ever experienced a a more finely tuned team from start to finish. The whole process was expertly outlined and explained to me. No rush to answer all my many questions. I was seamlessly guided through my process. Each person who was involved in this adventure played their part with knowledge, expertise, and obvious caring. I give thanks and salute all who helped put this program in place, making a potentially scary situation, not only non-stressful (at the end) but an exciting journey. Thank you Dr. Davidson, and all your wonderful staff."

"I completed my cataract surgery last year. I was apprehensive and nervous about the surgery and especially about surgery involving my eyes. I met with Dr. Davidson who explained, in terms I could understand, what I needed and the different options. Dr. Davidson made me feel very comfortable and he gained my trust with only 1 consultation. The day of the surgery (for my first eye) I was again, apprehensive and nervous. The staff at Lynn Eye Surgery Center was awesome. Each of them was pleasant, comforting, professional and they talked to me to keep my mind off the surgery, so I was comfortable and relaxed. Dr. Davidson talked to me just before the surgery, he was also comforting. It was interesting that each of the staff and even the doctors kept asking me why was I there and what was I there and which eye was for the surgery. The surgery was over almost immediately. I felt nothing but I could hear Dr. Davidson and the nurses talking (about what I think was measurements). Effortless, comforting, painless all beyond my expectations.
Then the post-op began the next day with Dr. Gordon. He is extremely professional and no-nonsense. He explained everything while doing his job extremely well. He found I had extreme dry-eye and had me back for additional post-op treatments and even included Dr. Davidson for treatment.
The next surgery for my left eye I was prepared and more than ready. The improvement from the first surgery was awesome so I wanted the next eye done to get the full effect. I have worn glasses since I was 16 and haven’t had to wear them since my first surgery. Again I found the Lynn Eye Surgery Center staff to be as professional and comforting as the first time (but this time I knew what to expect and I was ready). Again Dr. Gordon gave me the best post-op treatments.
Everything Dr. Davidson told me about the option I choose came true. He helped me make the best decision for me. I have recommended Lynn Eye AND Dr. Davidson and Dr. Gordon to my friends (and 1 has already had the based on my recommendation and experience). Now my wife will start the treatment. I highly recommend Lynn Eye and Dr. Davidson and Dr. Gordon and the great Lynn Eye Surgery staff."

"Due to rapidly progressing cataracts, I just had laser surgery with multifocal lens implant performed by Dr Davidson and I couldn't be happier with the results. I have 20/20 vision up close and far just 3 days after the surgery!!
Even though I'm a practicing physician, I had a certain level of anxiety going into a procedure on my eyes. But before the surgery, some reassuring words from Dr Davidson and his staff at Westlake Eye Surgery Center put me at ease, and a few minutes later I was done with the surgery, successfully and uneventfully.
Needless to say, Dr Davidson is the doctor to see for your cataract surgery needs.
Thank you Dr Davidson and staff, for amazing results!"

"I'm 86 years old and 100% satisfied with the Laser Cataract Surgery Dr Davidson and his team did for me. You can hand me something and I can read it, I went to the DMV and they said I don't need glasses to drive. Im 20/20 far and near and i never had a single problem after the surgery. You guys are great!"

"We want to thank you for his eye surgery. You made it possible for him to see without glasses and he is thrilled! He can actually see better than he ever did with glasses - at all distances. We appreciate the amazing work you do. Thank you, Thank you! Thanks, too, to your wonderful caring staff."

"This may be the easiest review I’ve ever written! I recently underwent cataract removal and lens replacement at Lynn Eye Medical Group. Dr. John Davidson was my surgeon and I chose to have my follow-up visits with Dr. David Gordon, O.D., also of Lynn Eye Medical Group.
I have worn glasses for at least the past 25 years. At 64 years of age, I had cataracts…A recommendation from a friend led me to Dr. Davidson and to my delight, my decision to go ahead with this surgery occurred just weeks after the FDA had approved the new PanOptix Laser Trifocal Lens. Of course, Dr. Davidson would be on the cutting edge of this kind of medical advancement.
Having any procedure done on your eyes is going to be somewhat nerve-wracking, no matter how much reassurance you receive or read about safety and the frequency of the procedure, etc. However, I can attest that Dr. Davidson and his team worked like a well-oiled machine and there was literally NO PAIN at any time, during or after the procedure. One of the first things I noticed post-surgery (after only the first eye) was I could now read the digital time clock on the night stand next to my bed. Even with only one eye done, I never wore my glasses again. I had the surgery for the first eye on a Wednesday and that Saturday, I drove to the Rose Bowl from Westlake Village for a 6:00 p.m. kickoff time, no problem and no corrective glasses.
I am awed daily by my restored sight and feel very fortunate. I want to express my gratitude to the entire Lynn Eye Medical Group – from reception to the surgery staff to follow-up care with Dr. Gordon - all members were kind, helpful, professional and efficient. Thank you for your part in what in my opinion is, if not a miracle, close to it!
​
Thank you again (can never say that too many times!)"

"Many times in life you meet people who literally change your lifestyle. Dr. John Davidson did that for me. My surgery with Dr. Davidson was incredible, pain free, very professional, and the outcome is so good I can't even describe it in words. Dr. Davidson is one of those rare individuals whose honesty, bedside manner, and abilities are all equal. I cannot recommend too highly the staff and the competency that Dr. Davidson brings."

Colm McHugh, MD:
"My colleague Dr. John Davidson has been doing huge numbers of cataract surgery in Ventura county with phenomenal results for many years. I had no choice When my own cataract surgery was required. He was the only one to whom-I would have gone. My results are what I expected. Perfect. I have done Thousands of eye surgeries only recommend Dr. Davidson myself and my own patients for cataract surgery."
​
​
Samantha B:
“After wearing corrective lenses for almost twenty years, I really wanted to be able to see without having to find my glasses. I was familiar with Dr. Davidson's reputation and knew that he was probably the only person I would be comfortable with working on my eyes. His team performed the most extensive and precise eye exam that I have ever had. I was confident that the doctor had a detailed map of my eyes. Dr. Davidson performed my Custom LASIK procedure and I have been amazed by the results. My vision is perfect. I highly recommend Dr. Davidson."
​
​
Kate Stephenson:
"Dr. Davidson and his staff are nothing short of miracle workers! My cataracts had completely stopped me from doing all the things That made life worth living. I could not drive or read, but I was afraid to do anything about it. The idea of having surgery on my eyes terrified me. Enter Miramar Specialists: Hallelujah! Easy-Peasy, Non-scary, PAIN-FREE surgery. As soon as the procedure was completed, I could see again.Every day my vision Seemed to get even clearer. Color, peripheral vision, detail? Like I was twenty again! If you have cataracts, go see Dr. Davidson. ASAP! He and his staff will literally change your life."
​
​
Rex G:
“I want to let Dr. Davidson know how happy I am with my eyesight, following my operation to remove cataracts. I work with my computer most of each day. I asked him to put a lens in my left eye, to enable me to read (without glasses) at arms length, the distance to my monitor and to put in a distance lens in the other eye. I can now read everything on the monitor, even the smallest printing, without glasses. I can see clearly when driving my car and especially at night, which I was about to give up night driving. I just renewed my drivers license and read the eye chart, with either eye, without any difficulty. I could not have asked by better results, Tell him, THANKS.”
​
​
Jennifer J:
“After waiting 7 years for Dr. Davidson to find an appropriate corrective eye surgery for me, it has come to pass! My life after ICL is more than I could ever imagine: I can see things clearly far away, no more finding glasses that fallen from there place in the night and people can see my eyes at there normal size! It has been a true Blessing!.”

Deloyce H:
"Dr. Davidson was so patient with me and my concerns, his time spent with me went above and beyond what was necessary. His attention helped to allay my fear and I am now so glad that I went through with the surgery. I have the Restor lens in both eyes and am now 20/20 without glasses! Thanks to Dr. Davidson and the Restor lens - I can see!"
