Patient Reviews
Mar 12, 2024
Exam and diagnosis were efficient and very accurate. I had cataract surgery and lens implants and after a lifetime of very poor vision am now 20 20. Outcomes vary depending on the underlying issue but I never thought I would be able to go without glasses. Highly recommend Dr. Ahmed and the Eye Physicians of Virginia.
