Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Cataract Surgery
My wife, Pratibha Paradkar, had cataracts in both eyes.At age 73, we felt she had high risk due to high BP, diabetes, spine surgery, vascular surgery and neuropathy. However, Dr. Dhillon Zaver made her feel comfortable and performed two surgeries within 3 weeks. He is personable, presentable and has great caring staff members. Post op exam showed that her eye sight is now 20-20We highly recommend that All senior citizens and Medicare patients take advantage of his knowledge, skills and abilities as Eye Physician. Thank you Dr. Zaver for caring.

Cataract surgery
My Mother had a wonderful experience with Eye physicians of Virginia. Dr. Zaver was a wonderful surgeon, and his Spanish is 'AWESOME'. Staff was always helpful and kind. They ensured my mother had a smooth prep, surgery, and follow-up. I am so glad I chose Eye Physicians of Virginia and would highly recommend to anyone.

Very thorough
Dr. Zaver explained the diagnosis in layman terms as well as my options and the procedure. The day of the procedure, he again went over the process of the cataract surgery and put me at ease. He is very professional yet easy to understand when speaking about the medical procedure and the steps after the operation. Would definitely recommend him to family & friends. When it is time to have the other eye done, Dr. Zavar will be the surgeon.

Glaucoma and Cataract surgery and treatments
Dr. Zaver did a first class job of addressing my eye problems, leading me thru necessary initial treatments and finally surgeries and follow up treatments. Dr. Zaver is not only a great eye surgeon but is a friendly, caring person as are all of his staff. I'm very happy to have him as my eye Doctor and highly recommend Dr. Zaver to everyone in need of a top notch eye doctor.

THE BEST IN CATARACT SURGERY!!!
My experience with Dr. Zaver was wonderful. I was apprehensive of having cataract surgery, but upon my consultation with Dr. Zaver I had no doubts that he would be the best surgeon I could trust my eyes to. He took the time to answer a list of my questions, was informative, patient and extremely knowledgeable. I am grateful for having Dr. Zaver helping me, I have had to depend on either glasses or contacts for over 50 years. I am now free of both and cannot express how happy I am with the freedom and sight I have gained thanks to Dr. Zaver. I HIGHLY recommend choosing Dr. Zaver, he is the best! Thank you again Dr. Z!

Amazing doctor - HIGHLY recommend
I recently had double cataract surgery and Dr. Zaver was my surgeon. From the moment I met him on my first office visit, I KNEW I was in good hands. He pays very close attention to all the details and approaches each surgery with a 'this person WILL have 20 20 vision, no matter what' attitude. He is kind, personable, and intelligent. I walked out with perfect 20 20 vision and could not be happier.

Dr. Zaver is the best
Dr. Zaver helped my husband with irritated eyelids, performing surgery to tighten them and keep his eyelashes from rubbing his eyes. He did cataracts surgery on both eyes, helping my husband to understand the processes, even though he's deaf. The office staff helped us get it all done, and accommodated access, and comprehension issues. All together excellent care.

Catarac Surgery Experience
1.4.23 Just had my 2nd catarac surgery with Dr. Dhillon Zaver. It could not have gone any better! No pain at all! Perfect vision from the instant I left the surgery center. No post surgery issues/pain with either eye. Absolutely amazing technology. I have to say that Dr. Zaver is also a very skilled doctor. He is trained in the latest technology and is very down to earth. I really felt comfortable with the whole process. I strongly recommend Dr. Dhillon Zaver for any eye issues, especially, cataract lens replacement!

My experience with Dr. Zaver
Dr. Zavar performed cataract surgery for me. In all our appointments pre and post he was extremely competent and always interacted with a completely pleasing personality. Prior to the surgeries he was (and remains) my opthalmologist and has always taken the best care of me and my eyes.

Exceptional glaucoma / cataract specialist
Dr. Zaver is a fantastic doctor, and I give him the highest recommendation. He performed two cataract surgeries on me and gave me a treatment for a condition that frequently leads to glaucoma. He is very knowledgeable and has exceptional communication skills - he is outstanding at explaining the underlying issues and pro's/con's of potential treatments in layman's terms so that you can understand the options.
