Patient Reviews
Jun 18, 2018
Dr. Shah is amazing. When discussing cataract surgery Dr. Shah explained my options thoroughly. I opted for the lenses for distance and reading. I could not have made a better choice for both my lenses and my surgeon. My bifocal glasses, that I have worn for years, are no longer on my night table waiting to be put on when I wake up and be worn all day. I now have 20-20 vision in both eyes, and can put my make-up on without a magnifying mirror. Exceptional care and results. Thank you Dr. Shah.
