She has extensive experience as an optometrist working with glaucoma patients.

Ophthalmology
Dr. Stancey is a Board-Certified Ophthalmologist, and is an active member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, Texas Medical Association, Travis County Medical Association and the Texas Ophthalmological Association. She was the first Ophthalmologist to open a practice in Lakeway.
Laser Eye Surgery
Dr. Stancey offers blade free laser assisted cataract surgery and traditional cataract surgery. With laser assisted cataract surgery, several steps of the surgery are performed with a computer controlled laser to ensure the highest precision and predictability. The LenSx® and Catalys® lasers utilize a femtosecond laser, which has been used to perform LASIK surgery for over a decade. The same technology that brought new levels of safety, accuracy, and predictability to LASIK surgery has now revolutionized cataract surgery.
Cataracts
We are so very grateful to have you as our Ophthalmologist, especially for the gift of “new eyes” that you have given my husband through his cataract surgeries. A whole new world has been opened to him now that he can see without glasses. What miracle that has been! You have been a blessing to us and we thank God that he led us to you.
Cataract Surgery
Dr. Stancey was the first Ophthalmologist in Lakeway to perform cataract surgery and she will continue to provide patients in Lakeway and the surrounding area with exemplary care and a highly personal surgical experience.
Eye Exam
Made an appointment for an eye exam and was pleasantly surprised by the professionalism and friendliness of the staff. Everything was explained ahead of time and with transparency. No hidden fees or surprises. [They] took the time to describe all the steps and answered all my questions. The place is spotless and well managed. Highly recommended.
Dr. Stancey performs this minimally invasive procedure on an outpatient basis at our affiliated surgery center. During traditional cataract surgery, numbing drops are used to anesthetize the eye, and gentle, light IV sedation is used to make you, the patient extremely comfortable. A small incision is made, into which an ultrasound probe is inserted to break up, or emulsify, the cataract into tiny pieces. These tiny pieces are then suctioned from the eye. Once the cataract has been removed, a new, artificial intraocular lens is inserted to help improve vision. A stitch is usually not needed, and all of this is usually done in less than 15 minutes!
As well as practicing general Ophthalmology, Dr. Stancey specializes in bladeless laser assisted cataract surgery using the newest intraocular implants. She sub-specializes in oculoplastics – plastic surgery around the eyes – for both cosmetic and medical reasons. She also administers Botox, cosmetic fillers, and other injectables.
