Patient Reviews
Sep 07, 2024
I have had surgery on both eyes and I cannot say enough good things about my experience. My vision is now 20 20 and do not need glasses to drive. Choosing the right lens is very important for your personal goals. I went with AcrySof.IQ Vivity IOL Inter Ocular Lens, which gave me clear and completely focus vision from about 2 feet to as far as I can see. Night vision without any halos.My vision has not been this good in about 15 years. Having said that, I can read everything on my smart phone at arm’s length, but holding it closer 8- to 12 inches requires reading glasses very basic prescription.My results exactly match what Dr. Botelho explained. It has been 3 months now and I still marvel at how spectacular my vision is. Now, these lenses are not covered by my insurance but well worth the investment. Great job, absolute best communication on expected results all the staff was pleasant and accommodating.
