    Experience in the Procedure You Need

    Would you trust someone to operate on your eye who only does a few surgeries a month?

    •  Performs hundreds of your specific procedure each year.
    • Can clearly explain the risks, benefits, and alternatives.
    • Has experience with complex cases or second opinions.

    Ask:
    How many of these procedures do you do a month?
    Do you regularly perform surgery for people with similar needs to mine?
