Meet the Doctors of Eye Center of Texas

At Eye Center of Texas, we are staffed with two outstanding Houston LASIK and cataract surgery doctors: Dr. Mark Mayo and Dr. Edward Wade. Combined, they have performed over 75,000 successful LASIK procedures. They are two of the first surgeons in Houston to offer bladeless cataract surgery and are ranked in the top 5 of the nation for number cases with LenSx laser. Dr. Wade is ranked as one of the top 10 ReSTOR surgeons in the country. At Eye Center of Texas, you will find a highly trained team of specialists also work in the fields of glaucoma surgery, retinal disease and treatment, and other lesser known medical procedures.

We will contribute to the improvement of eye care for all people by promoting the cooperation between optometry and ophthalmology while providing the highest level of care to patients in a compassionate manner.
