Patient Reviews
Feb 25, 2023
I have seen Dr. Tigani for more than three years. My eyes have many problems and I have concerns about my eyes’ long-term health. I had severe myopia and astigmatism. In 1999 I had Lasik surgery. I have vitreous detachment and problems in the retina. I was scared to have cataract surgery. Because I have some friends with similar problems who had cataract surgery not very successful. Dr. Tigani operated my both eyes. No complications, and very good results. He is very diligent. I can see nature and my surroundings much better, and clearer. I highly recommend Dr. Tigani.
