After paying 8+grand each lense, and, after my last surgery in early April, several adjustments, secondary cataracts, and close to 20 visits to work on this issue, I cannot read road signs clearly until right next to them. Reading is a chore, and sitting in my living room watching TV and not seeing lettering clearly is a frustrating outcome. I have floaters, eye sight that changes and very sensitive to lights in stores and at times, a tipsy feeling because the eyes are not adjusted to each other... I personally don't recommend these high cost lenses. Two glasses techs have told me at least 10-15 people regret these lenses and the are unsatisfied. This is not to say some may be happy with them, but I definitely had much better vision before the surgery. The refering doctor I believe is really trying to help me. He has seen me countless times and is very kind and I believe sincere. I feel a refund is in order if my eyes do not result in quality vision and being able to drive safely. This has impacted the quality of my life and I cannot endorse these lenses. Other people need to hear about these high cost lenses and NOT be oversold on them!

They informed me that they had a contract with the company and that it wouldn't be a problem to be seen. I came in a few days later, filled out all the paper work, handed over my insurance information and went into the back to have a basic eye exam. Not 60 seconds after the assistant dilates my eyes, she comes in and says that she regrets to inform me that they don't take my insurance. She says that it'll be around $80 if I want to be seen without insurance. I am wary of this at first for obvious reasons, but I concede as my eyes are already in a sensitive condition and I didn't really want to drive immediately after dilation. We go up to the desk and talk a little more...she ups the price to $120. I just leave. This place is unprofessional and unorganized. Don't risk it.

Then the doctor told her he would not do any more treatment to help her. She asked for her medical records to go to a different specialist and they told her "No" and then after much fuss told her she could have her records for $25. Now mind you my friend is in her mid-70s and on a fixed income and they know this. They were so rude and didn't care about my friend. They told her they had the best specialists and there was nothing else left for her to do except go blind. After some deep research and prayer we got my friend an appointment with the chief surgeon at the Shiley Eye Institute in San Diego, Dr. Weinreb. They didn't even need her records and did all of their own testing and did surgery the next week! She didn't go blind and her eyesight is improving weekly! A miracle!

This causes stress to the patient and whomever gives the patient rides to and from surgery. I NEVER have high blood pressure, but I had it before surgery because of the stress for days of logistics of unknown appointment time. They are apparently trying to squeeze appointments together as cancellations come in to save themselves staff wages? Because of this squeezing, one's appointment can then also easily be delayed by mishaps, including people's surgery being delayed because of their high blood pressure caused by the abusive failure to give patients a firm appointment time until less than a day before surgery. They just did my first cataract surgery right in one of the several assembly line bays for people prepping for surgery. I believe they were SUPPOSED (by law?) to do this surgery in the fully equipped surgery room where they did my second cataract surgery. I bet they did it in the bay rather than take the time to move me to the proper surgery room. They obviously don't care about treating patients and patients' family and friends well. Maybe they can be motivated in their own self interests, because they shoot themselves in their own foot when surgeries are delayed because of high blood pressure that they have stupidly caused erroneously thinking that whipsawing patients' appointment times will save the center time. There was also a gentleman freaking out in the waiting room. His family members told me he was having anxiety attack because of how they had whipsawed his appointment time. One of the staff told me high blood pressure delays happen a lot there--that is is normal anxiety about surgery--I beg to differ--much is surely caused by their abusive handling of patients.

Highly recommend Dr. Johnson. If you want more details read on. My eyesight has always been problematic. The amblyopia in my right eye was not diagnosed when I was a child. As a result, I have never had binocular vision. The lens for my right eye has basically been a thick magnifying glass for the last 50+ years. On my first visit with Dr. Johnson, I was impressed with the thoroughness of the exam and friendliness of his staff. Dr. Johnson characterized my eyes as "challenging" because in addition to the amblyopia in my right eye I have a partial hole in the macula of my left eye. On top of that, I had astigmatisms in both eyes. He recommended a modified blended vision option with an intermediate focal point lens for the amblyopic eye and a monofocal distance lens for the left eye. Both lenses would be sized to increase my visual acuity to their maximum potential and thereby minimize the need for glasses - except for reading. I was a bit hesitant and lobbied for a multi-focal lens or an extended depth of field lens for my dominant left eye since that is what many in my peer group had successfully received. He carefully explained why that would produce a poor outcome for me. I heeded his advice. I had the two cataract surgeries a week a part. My world is now brighter and clearer than I ever remember. I want to thank Dr. Johnson for his patience in understanding my individual situation and providing the type of seasoned advice that you would expect from an experienced medical professional.
