Patient Reviews
May 20, 2025
Expert in corneal diseases and prescribed 3 eye drops to reverse the corneal rejection. A steroid drops, eye pressure drops, and an antibiotics for eye infection. She was quickly able to identify the problems in corneal tissue which are swelling, edema which was causing me fuzzy vision for years. I hope I can see little more clearer from the right eye more years to come. Thank you.
