At Vistaura Eye, our foundation has been built on innovation, forward thinking, and patient centered care. In 1939, Dr. Phillips, the first residency trained Ophthalmologist in Central PA, started his practice known as Phillips Eye. He was noted for bringing new surgical techniques to the practice, including strabismus surgery for children. In 1977, Dr. Schein joined Dr. Phillips and was among the
first Ophthalmologists to perform corneal transplants as well as offering intraocular lenses for cataract surgery. In 1993, Dr. Ernst joined the practice and brought with him, the concept of refractive surgery, commonly known as LASIK. The practice quickly became the premier refractive surgical office in the area. In 2006, Dr. Mishra joined the practice, which then became Schein Ernst Mishra Eye. Along with his passion for patient centered care, Dr. Mishra also brought new techniques such as a quicker and more efficient way to perform corneal transplant surgeries. Dr. Inna Bondira joined us in 2024 as a comprehensive ophthalmologist and has fit into our business perfectly! She has been seeing patients and performing cataract surgery weekly.
2025 brought us even more changes as we again changed business names. While our ownership has remained the same, our new name reflects who we are today and where we’re headed in the future. Inspired by the words “Vista” (a clear, expansive view) and “Aura” (a feeling of positive energy), Vistaura Eye represents our mission to champion a center of excellence in eye care — one that values both our staff and you, our patients. We are committed to providing you with the highest quality eye care and services.
