Patient Reviews
Jul 18, 2024
Title: Exceptional Surgeon - Dr. Albert Caruana Transformed My Vision I recently underwent cataract surgery and had a Toric lens implanted in my left eye by Dr. Albert Caruana at Eye Surgery Associates, and I am thrilled to share my outstanding experience with his exceptional care and expertise. Before the surgery, my vision in that eye was extremely poor, to the point where I was legally blind. Two other eye doctors had previously informed me that my vision would never be normal due to scarring on the cornea, and that upgraded lenses were not an option. However, Dr. Caruana offered a glimmer of hope by suggesting the use of a Toric lens, although he could not confirm its feasibility until the surgery began. Dr. Caruana's proactive approach was evident when he ordered the specialized lens in advance, demonstrating his commitment to exploring every possible avenue to improve my vision. The surgery was a success beyond my expectations, and I am delighted to report that my follow-up examination revealed that I no longer require glasses. My vision is now crystal clear, colors are vibrant, and I can read small print effortlessly without any visual aids. Dr. Caruana's skill, dedication, and compassionate care have truly transformed my life, and I am immensely grateful for his expertise and unwavering commitment to his patients' well-being. I cannot recommend Dr. Albert Caruana and Eye Surgery Associates highly enough for anyone seeking top-notch eye care. Thank you, Dr. Caruana, for your exceptional work, and may you continue to bring the gift of sight to others. God bless you. Larry Borman
