Clay Eye & Physicians Surgeons

This was the first time in over 25 years of wearing glasses and contacts that I truly felt seen, no pun intended! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed. The staff was incredibly friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. The doctor’s assistant took the time to explain each of the eye tests and made the entire process feel comfortable and thorough. The doctor was exceptional. He never made me feel rushed and took the time to make sure my astigmatism was fully addressed. For the first time ever, I left an eye appointment feeling completely confident in my prescription. That level of care and attention to detail is something I haven’t experienced anywhere else. Their office also has the latest technology for vision testing, which made the exam feel much more precise and comprehensive than any I’ve had before. I can’t recommend Clay Eye enough. If you’re looking for an eye doctor who genuinely cares about getting your vision right and has an amazing team to support you, this is the place to go!

I have been going to Clay Ehe for several years and have been extremely satisfied with everyone I’ve seen. Dr Hayes has been very thorough and has helped me tremendously. He explains everything in detail and makes sure I understand the issues and my options. I have been so pleased that I drive from Pensacola to Jacksonville when necessary. I highly recommend Dr Hayes as a glaucoma specialist.

Went here with a friend for their "Trunk Eyeglass Special." Place was pretty packed but seemed to go smoothly. They had some pretty expensive glasses for a pretty good discount. Was pretty impressed. Got in and out with 2 pairs of glasses in about an hour. Place was clean, professional and the staff were all nice & helpful.

If you have any "I" eye "I" wants or needs, go to these quality PEOPLE taking CARE of PEOPLE. They know what to do, when to do it and how to do it. Young staff are AT the quality we have always wanted. NOT that other STUFF "we don't have time or eyes for". Why so good, because the DOCTORS model the way. My DOCTOR walked the talk. Did not rush me and went deep into the evaluation of my left eye concern. I know I had to go when I was finished. However, I wanted to understand this well oiled machine more. Now, I am going to a referral that I am ok with. However, they have a tough act to follow, tomorrow. The staff member who initially dialated my eyes was extremely personal professional and relatable. Thank You All!!!

I’m so grateful to Dr. Downer and the entire team. My cornea transplant was a success, and I received excellent care every step of the way. Dr. Downer was skilled, compassionate, and always took the time to answer my questions. I highly recommend Dr. Downer to anyone needing expert eye care. Thank you for making such a positive difference in my life!
