Hey Las Vegas and Southern Nevada! We have some exciting news that marks a significant milestone for vision care in Nevada with the merger of two of the top leading Ophthalmic practices in Southern Nevada. On March 3rd, 2025, Dr. Jack Abrams of the Abrams Eye Institute and Dr. Kent Wellish of the Wellish Vision Institute will join together to form the Wellish Abrams Vision Institute. These two premium eye care and Ophthalmology Surgeons bring over 30 years of experience and thousands of hours in surgical vision correction improving vision and quality of life with comprehensive and thoughtful care. This merger allows Dr. Wellish and Dr. Abrams to combine their resources, expertise, innovative approaches, and services in both practices, creating an even stronger team to support your healthcare needs.
What will change?
Beginning March 3rd, all services and care performed at the Abrams Eye Institute locations will be transitioned to a Wellish Vision Institute location nearest to your existing appointment location and with the same provider. You will have the choice to move your appointment to another location or provider if you choose. You will continue to have access to your current providers including Dr. Jack Abrams, Dr. Tapan Shah and Dr. Christopher DePalo, and all staff will be transitioning to a newly branded Wellish Abrams Vision Institute location.
