Patient Reviews
Feb 20, 2025
Her knowledge as well as education and background in eye care specializing in glaucoma are impressive. She is a brilliant and caring physician. When first diagnosed with glaucoma ignored by an optometrist for a few years, I was terrified that I would lose some of my vision. Once I became a patient of Dr. Rao I realized with proper care from a good physician that did not have to be my outcome. I highly recommend her for eye care.
