Patient Reviews
Apr 14, 2023
I had been evaluating having cataract for over 3 years. Stuart said when you're ready come in and I will take care of it. I am a veteran, and I could have had the surgery done for free at the VA. But the VA eye surgeons were all young with a limited number of eye surgeries (20 to 100). There was one issue with the surgery was that my eyes do not dilate enough. I lesser experienced surgeon might have proceeded and caused some eye damage. But Stuart knew what to do. He used what is called the Malyugin Ring. It holds the pupil open wide enough to make the surgery safer and easier. The best thing of all is that I can see clearly again. It was remarkable to read road signs from a long distance or watch TV and see clear crisp images and recessed lights that were yellow turned white and much much more. Thank you Stuart! I will be forever grateful.
