Patient Reviews
May 22, 2020
My mom originally visited Dr. Kevint Wong for red eyes and vision issue. That doctor recommended her to do cataract surgery. After surgery done, my mom's vision got even worse. We tried to reach Dr. Wong but couldn't find him due to pandemic lockdown. We left voice message to his office and cell for emergency but no one responded to us. Luckily I found Dr. Lai and he did a thorough checking to my mom's eyes. At that moment, my mom can barley see. After checking, Dr. Lai didn't find any issue with her eyes and suspected the problem is related to optic nerve. To save my mom's eyes, he ordered urgent MRI request and referred her to another neuro-ophthalmologist immediately. It turned out muscle around her eyes was swollen which pushed nerves and caused her vision drop dramatically. Because of Dr. Lai's knowledge and quick judgement, my mom's eye issue was taken care of right away. My family feel so fortunate to have such a knowledgeable, kind and responsible Doctor as our care provider.
