Patient Reviews
Jan 18, 2018
Dr. Kuruvilla is an outstanding professional capable of explaining every aspect of his work in terms a non-medical person like me can understand and appreciate. Additionally he is a very skilled surgeon and completed the work to what I would classify as perfection. He is continuing to treat my Dry Eye condition and has improved my vision (and more importantly, my outlook regarding eyes) and ended years of itchy/watery road map eyes that prevented me from doing things I enjoy, especially reading.
