Richens Eye Center 161 West 200 North, St. George, UT 84770

"I had a great experience with Richen’s eye center. The office itself is really nice and the staff are fantastic. My eye sight was terrible, near -9 with astigmatisms, and my eyes were not a good fit for LASIK. So I had the ICL surgery on both of my eyes. I am now 8 months out from surgery and my eyesight is a little better than 20/20. It’s a Miracle! I have no discomfort, dryness, or glare issue with my eyes now. And that is saying something because I live in the desert and it is very dry. The surgery center was very clean and Dr Richens absolutely knows what she is doing. She is calm, professional, knowledgeable, and meticulous. I felt comfortable with the surgery because I trusted her professionalism. She did the ICL surgery on both of my eyes on the same day. I was given an IV with medication to keep me really calm so I really can’t remember much at all of the surgery. Post surgery my eyes were only slightly uncomfortable. I was just really sensitive to light and everything was cloudy for a few days. I did see a light halo when I looked at lights for a couple months but that has completely cleared up and was expected. I 10/10 recommend Dr Richens and Richens eye center ! And if you are considering the ICL surgery, I would recommend it as it has been a great experience for me."

"Sharon Richens has been my eye Dr. for many years and it is very important to me as I have diabetes2. She has always been very diligent in keeping me informed, keeping all the tests necessary and up to date and I have the utmost respect for her and have tried getting my friends to understand the importance of a good eye Dr. She also when I first met her saw a need I wasn't aware of and had a Dr. do a eye lift on me that has lasted something I thought I had to live with. One visit with Sharon and as a friend who has since passed away and my husband and I always say if you need to wait, well after one visit, you will see no others."

"I had sudden eye problems when I was passing through and was lucky enough to get a spontaneous appointment. Dr. Albernaz made a very professional and experienced impression on me. He took his time, explained things clearly and was very empathetic. I also felt very well looked after by the rest of the team. We need ophthalmologists like that in Germany too. I can now enjoy the rest of my vacation much better. Thank you!"

"Dr Richens did my cataract surgery in February 2024. I was apprehensive at first, but my confidence in Dr. Sharon Richens made my experience so pleasant. The ability to see more clearly is the result. Dr. Richens explained the procedure as well as post-op care. Trust in her expertise and you won’t be disappointed."

"I have never ever before received better treatment from any doctor's office than I did here. I was told that once I was taken from the waiting room to the exam room that it was all about me. They would take as much time as necessary to give me a thorough exam and answer all my questions. I give them an enthusiastic 5 stars."
