Patient Reviews
Mar 23, 2024
My vision was really bad - about 20-400. I've worn glasses since I was 8 years old and hard contact lenses for 50 years. Dr. Koo performed cataract eye surgery on both my eyes and now my vision is 20-20 for distance. Since my vision was so 'bad', Dr. Koo advised me that the multi-focal lens was not an option for me. I still need my reading glasses 1.5 but that's a minor inconvenience. Regarding the surgery, I had no pain and no scratchiness (perhaps because my eyes were accustomed to hard lenses). I highly recommend Dr. Koo if you have cataracts.
