Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.November 25, 2024MORAN EYE CENTERHe's one of the best there's no doubt. He is very careful and I've never had a bad shot with him ever you're so good.
November 23, 2024MORAN EYE CENTEREveryone who helped with my visit was exceptional. Tyson was personable and patient giving a good explanation of everything he did. I asked for a light dose of dilation drops. I'm allergic to their effect and typically have a difficult time waiting for me eyes to return to normal. He placed the drop in each eye so that not all the liquid entered my eye. My eyes were where Dr. Shakoor needed then for his exam. Lisa is delightful and we enjoyed our interaction with her. She too answered some questions about England. All in all, it was the best visit I've ever had when my eyes needed to be dilated. I still wish your research group could come up with a lesser strength dialtion drop.
