Patient Reviews
Apr 08, 2022
I had cataract's in both eyes. I was a difficult case as I had an extreme stigmatism, odd shaped eyes and very small eyes. Just one of these circumstances makes the surgery and the calculations for new lenses very difficult. Both eyes turned out perfectly. The lenses are correct and centered perfectly. For the first time in my life I can see without glasses!!! Thank you Dr. Banta!!
