How likely are you to recommend Dr. Cestari?
Dr. Cestari did an excellent job fixing my double-vision that resulted from an earlier vitrectomy surgery for a detached retina. My situation was complex requiring Dr. Cestari to fix my double-vision by operating on just one eye where he had to work around a scleral buckle used to reattach my retina. Prior to my surgery a 15 diopter prism was required to correct my double vision. Prisms this strong significantly reduce visual acuity. With one operation, using adjustable sutures, Dr. Cestari corrected this to within an almost perfect two diopters giving me back a good part of my stereo eyesight and 20:15 vision. Throughout the process Dr. Cestari was professional and respectful in handling any questions and concerns. Post vitrectomy double-vision cases are a small percentage of all strabismus surgeries. Make sure you chose a surgeon, like Dr. Cestari, who has significant experience with this type of case. I would recommend him to anyone with a similar diagnosis.
