Patient Reviews
Jul 17, 2022
I have been experiencing random diplopia for 5 months and have seen many doctors trying to find the cause. Finally, it was recommended that I see a neuro-ophthalmologist. Dr. Lao is very personable, gave me a more thorough exam than anyone else had done, and explained my condition in a way I could understand. I highly recommend him. His staff was excellent.
