I have had both Lasik and more recently cataract surgery. I always suggest that you look for THE BEST surgeon in your area you can find. My consultations with my ophthalmologist before any surgery are super important. Ask for references and second opinions. I know it’s unlikely that you’re in my area, but if you are, I have the best guy for cataract surgery. He is extremely skilled. We also have a retinologist for my husband’s previous eye problems.

I don’t take my eyesight for granted at all. I’m one of the lucky few. I developed cataracts at a very young age. After removing the cataracts, he inserted permanent multi focal lens in each eye. I now have perfect vision for close, medium, and far distances without glasses. It’s been a godsend for me.

I had cataract surgery in June, 2017.

DR ROBERT WOLFF in CARSON CITY, NV.

CONSIDERED TO BE #1 in NEVADA & #2 IN THE COUNTRY.

NO ISSUES-—STAFF WAS VERY HELPFUL.

Me too. Lasik about 1990, in Tijuana, Méndez Vision Institute, Dr. Méndez was one of the Lasik pioneers, held several patents, developed some of the procedures. Excellent results. Stevie Nicks was one of his patients, 'so she wouldn't blunder off the edge of the stage during a performance.'

Had my lenses replaced locally one at a time in '16 and '17, opted for distance correction in both, that way I could use Dollar Store cheaters for close up work...
