Patient Reviews
Mar 20, 2023
I’ve been seeing Kessler since 2019 for narrow angle glaucoma that was diagnosed but untreated by Penn Eye Care. Kessler sent me Dr Schwartz at GBMC for an iridotomy. My vision was still blurry but I figured it was permanent damage from the glaucoma. Over the next 2yrs blurred vision got even worse with halos and double vision. I went to Levin Eye Care for a new prescription but Optometrist said nothing could be done until scare tissue was removed. SCAR TISSUE!? Ive had no eye injury other than scarring around the pupils from contacts. Kessler already saw that. I went back to Kessler who referred me to Dr. Williamson at Select Eye Care in Towson. I was diagnosed with Map Dot Fingerprint Dystrophy and a painful Superficial Keratectomy was performed same day. Finally, 3yrs later and I can see again. I’m still severely myopic with lazy left eye but seeing with glasses and playing video games again. The moral: keep pestering Dr Kessler. He know some awesome specialists.
