Great experience with correcting my weird eyes...

Great working with her and talking about all the latest options and possible options making its way through FDA approval for the oddly shaped corneas that I have. Been through 3 cornea transplants and LASIK corrective procedures.

I saw Dr. Stephens while Dr. Essa was out. She was incredibly thorough and answered all of my questions.
