Patient Reviews
Dec 04, 2020
Dr. Goldban has healed my eyes! My whole life I have had problems with near-sightedness and had macular degeneration so my eye sight has always been terrible. Had to have a very high contact lens prescription. I had cataract surgery from Dr. Goldban and for the first time ever in my life I had 20 20 vision! Since then, I have learned its typical to develop cloudy spots and my eye sight started to get poor again. I went to Dr. Goldban and had a follow up laser surgery. I was able to make appointments in a very timely manner with his office. I am not the easiest patient about my eyes especially bright lights but Dr. Goldban is so easy to work with. He is patient and kind. My eyes seem even better than after I had cataract surgery. Colors look brighter and I don't need glasses (except for reading). But I'm confident he will help make that amazing too once I go for the follow up. If you want a great eye doctor this is the one- even if you have to wait. Iamsoexcited to see if I am at 20/20
