Patient Reviews
Aug 14, 2023
I was born legally blind. I navigated with my sense of hearing, smell, and bright colors until I was 6 years old, and in first grade. It was the early 80s and here I was a little six-year-old wearing these huge bifocals. I didn’t care I could finally see my parents face for the first time. I remember asking my parents permission to sleep with my new glasses so I could see my dreams better. Fast forward 16 years later when I was 22 years older I had eye surgery performed by Dr. Shapiro and 25 years later at 47 years old I am so grateful for Dr. Shapiro He truly is the best Ophthalmologists. I would recommend Dr. Shapiro 100% hands-down. Thank you Dr. Shapiro for giving me the ability to see, you are appreciated.
