Sam Johnson, ABOM, NCLE-AC - is the only Master Level Optician in the Central Texas Area and one of very few in the entire country. He is also State of Texas Advance Board Certified and Licensed in Contact Lens fitting. Multifocal glasses and contact lenses are his special area of expertise.   

Sam’s attention to detail and professionalism has gained him a reputation among Austin Ophthalmologists as the Go-To-Guy for their patients.  His gentle manner and patience has ensured his business success. 

“Sam is simply the best there is! He has fitted me with both contact lenses and glasses for over 12 years. I would never go anywhere else. I am 48 years old and I have a high prescription. Before I came to The Vision Specialists the glasses I got were never just right. With them they are right every time. I highly recommend Sam Johnson and the Team at the Vision Specialists."

“Before I met Michelle at Westlake Optical I did not know what I was missing…… literally! She helped me choose a frame that I just love. Her recommendations for lens material and extras were perfect for what I need.  I now can not only see at a distance when driving, I can see my computer is clear and I can sew without squinting. Thank you Michelle and Westlake Optical for all your help."
