Please contact ( Dr. Alysia Zhou, Ophthalmologist Lindsay, ON ) to enquire if this health care provider is accepting new patients. Glaucoma is an eye disease caused by a buildup of intraocular pressure (IOP). Your eyes have clear liquid that flows in and out, but if you have glaucoma, this liquid doesn’t drain properly, causing this buildup of IOP pressure. Glaucoma is a disease of the optic nerve, which is made up of nerve fibers and transmits images from the eye to your brain. If you have a condition known as ocular hypertension, which is a result of high ocular pressure, your risk of developing glaucoma increases.Your optometrist or ophthalmologist may want to lower your IOP as a preventative measure.

Our eye works a lot like a camera. In order for us to see clearly, the Cornea has light has to be focused by a lens. We are all born with a lens inside our eye that does this job for us and in early life it is crystal clear. As we age, this lens can become cloudy and begin to block light or create blur. We call this change in the lens a “cataract”.

Fortunately, cataracts are treatable through surgery. During cataract surgery, the clouded lens is removed and replaced with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). This procedure is highly successful in restoring clear vision for most people, allowing them to see more clearly and improve their quality of life.

    Dr. Alysia Zhou was curt, impatient, did not offer treatment plan information & was only interested in booking me for cataract surgery (to make money). Told me if I didn't sign up for the surgery in June I would not pass my driver's test (I'm 80 & I passed!). Also told me if I waited until the fall she would have to scrape the cataracts off my eyes!!! I was in her waiting room when it was overflowing with post-op cataract patients and I believe she just wants to make money. She is very ill mannered and I would not recommend her to anyone. It is not necessary to use scare tactics or mislead a patient who is very concerned with their vision. Find someone else who really cares about what they are doing not just about the money!!!

    Wow, this doctor's name should be beside the definition of "poor bedside manor". She told me I had a better chance of going blind during my car drive traveling to see her than her eye surgery; she cut me off mid-sentence enquiry and insisted that I was over-reacting when she wanted to immediately do a surprise surgery that I didn't know anything about. Find someone else as she is not the only eye doctor in town despite her acting like she is.

    As someone who works in the Health Care profession, and have sadly witnessed inept care... this is by far the worst experience I've ever dealt with. I will start off by saying, the other employees in the office were magnificent, attentive, friendly, thorough. This was my first visit, so they wanted to test pressure in the eyes, dilate etc. The woman doing the testing, put a first set of drops in and tested the pressure. She indicated she would wait 15 minutes before putting the dilation drops in. The next thing I knew I was being called in to the exam room. Firstly, Dr Zhou had none of my medical history in front of her. I advised of a serious chronic illness I had that affected eye sight she had never heard of it. She glossed over the fact 2 members of my family have macular degeneration, and didn't even note in the file the eye issues I was presenting that lead to my request for ophthalmology. Secondly, immediately upon looking at my eyes she questioned if I had been dilated siting they didn't look as such. When I told her I hadn't, she looked at my chart and curtly advised I had been, and my eyed just didn't dilate well. I tried a second time to advise I had been told I'd be called back in and never was. She became combative and told me again I HAD been and it just didn't work properly. She spent approximately 90 seconds looking in my eyes and dismissed me advising to seek an optometrist in future. I am appalled, and disheartened that this is the quality of care elderly people have to deal with for Specialty eye care. Please think twice, drive the extra distance to be seen by someone competent.

    This was the worst experience I have ever had with a Dr. Very rude and condescending. Told me I had pink eye and on my follow up Appt told me I had permanent damage in my left eye and there was nothing she could do for me and sent me on my way. She did not have a care in the world to answer any of my questions. I pushed for a second opinion and have come to learn I have a rare eye disease called Thygeson's Keratitis and have been referred to a cornea specialist in Kingston. I would suggest going to another Opthalmologist.

    Dr. Zhou cost my husband his eyesight!!!! She threatened him that she would pull his license if he did not have cataract surgery, we should have double checked with someone else, but we were scared into it, his eyesight now is awful....another doctor told us cataract surgery is never an emergency and she should not have touched him....this is from a specialist at Sunnybrook. Be careful people, better yet go elsewhere!!!

    I was referred by my local optometrist to Dr Zhu and he told me upfront that she is straight to the point. I found her staff to be welcoming and friendly from the moment I walked in. I only met the Dr for a brief few minutes, but I fount her to be kind not at all like some of the reviews. She was very brief, but she did say she wanted to see me back for more testing in 5 months. Overall I had a pleasant experience with Dr Zhu and her office.

    Extremely rude person, was transferred from another eye doctor due to retirement and was told to get a referral, which since she took over an existing doctors patients, referral shouldnt be required. Was rude about why i was there.

    I have had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Zhou on 2 occasions and have found her knowledgeable, punctual and professional. She is definitely not warm and fuzzy but she knows her stuff and I find her very caring. I am very fortunate to have her expertise in monitoring my condition.

    I had been seeing Dr. Cooper for years due to being a type 1 diabetic with no concerns about my treatment by him. Enter Dr. Zhou upon his retirement and now I am very concerned. Been seeing her every 3 months due to high pressure in my eyes and she has yet to do anything. Every light has halos around them, my eyes ache all the time, my pupils are not equal in size and a constant headache that gets severe at times....her response...I am not a headache doctor, You can still see, come back in 3 months. She was also told when I first saw here that Glaucoma is present in my family....so as my Optic Nerve is possible being damaged, she has yet to do anything and just dismisses my concerns. I do not recommend her and I am looking for another eye specialist right now before I go blind because of her ineptitude as a doctor.

    This woman should really consider another career. Her interpersonal skills are terrible. Her manner is detatched, uncommunicative, evasive, curt & dismissive. On this visit, she asked me questions about when was I seeing a Dr. I had never heard of, & insisted that "he referred me." Then she mentioned ANOTHER Dr's name (also unknown to me) & got angry when I said I had never seen or heard of either of them. I suspect she was looking at someone else's file & was too embarrassed to admit it. Needless to say, I won't be seeing her again.

    1 star is too high. Don't even want to her refer as Dr. Egotistical,condescending without much knowledge or consideration of the mayhem she is causing. I fear that my sister's eyesight will be permanently damaged by her recklessness. Lindsay definitely needs a more qualified and more attentive Ophthalmologist.

    Dr Zhou did not listen to what I wanted to say and just referred me out. Poor communication, rude, arrogant and condescending. Doesn't explain treatments or condition unless prompted. No consideration for patients especially seniors. She makes you feel rushed and hence you don't finish the questions you might have wanted to ask. Impression is patient is too stupid to understand and should just do what she says!!
