Patient Reviews
Aug 17, 2023
Wow! I can now see my clock near my nightstand, thanks to Dr, Richard Erdey and his amazing staff.In June of this year (2023), I had cataract surgery with LAL lenses. The Light Adjustable Lens are fantastic. I have worn contacts or glasses for over 60 years. I can now see 20/20 with the LAL lenses. I can also see smaller print. Dr. Erdey is an excellent doctor, giving you his best options for your eyesight. I also want to thank Dr. Phil Ardner and Dr. Patrick Janson for all their efforts to help me achieve the best results in my eyesight.They work very closely with Dr. Erdey. From Kylea in his office, to all the receptionists in the front office, who are always friendly when setting up your appointments, thank you for your efforts. Carol and all the surgical staff in the East Columbus Surgery Center where the cataract surgery is preformed, do a fantastic job of keeping you informed and comfortable for your upcoming surgery. Thank you Dr. Erdey for giving me clear vision again.
