[QUOTE="Range Plunker, post: 3837442, member: 43976"] Several years ago, my local optometrist recommended that I see an OKC eye surgeon. At my initial appointment, the doctor recommended that I should have cataract surgery as well as surgery to correct a stigmatism. He offered two procedures for the stigmatism, one for 6K and the other for 2K, which I selected the 2k procedure due to my age and finances. Both procedures took two surgical visits. The second surgery was marred by an incident between the doctor and an elder women, who was supposedly his best friends mother, and scheduled ahead of me, which she refused to go ahead with her surgery do to the cost. My surgery was moved up. Within days of my second procedure, I noticed blurred vision as well as weak vision in one eye, and a large spider web in the other eye. I telephoned and made an appointment to see the doctor. Upon arrival for my appointment, I was directed to see a young female associate, who performed various eye tests. Then the doctor came into the room, and advised that he did not normally see patients after surgery, and was somewhat perturbed that he had to see me. They referred me back to my local optometrist for observation. Later, I managed to make an appointment with another eye surgeon that did help to improve my vision by removing some of the scar tissue; but, I am still left with a large spider web in one eye, blurred vision in both eyes to the extent that I often see double letters, one clearer than the other and stacked, at night I often have to stop reading completely as well as watching television because of the double letter stacking, and my vision is mainly supported by the eye that has a spiderweb, which is my less dominant eye. Needless to say, I wish I'd never been operated on by this eye specialist, especially how he handled my follow up visit when he was advised of my vision issues. [/QUOTE]
