We’re so happy to have been a part of your journey to a better vision. 🙌⁠ Read the full testimonial below!

"This is for Dr. Shamie and her team! I went in recently after getting multiple prescription glasses and suffering from astigmatism and far sightedness. I went after reading all the reviews. I got an early appt with Dr. Shamie that worked so well for my busy schedule. From the check-in the staff greeted with smile. I went though almost 45 min of thorough examination using the latest technology which is what honestly I needed! I forget the name of the tech who helped but she was so sweet, respectful and patient! After the thorough examination, I met Dr. Shamie who came in with a very positive and warm smile. She explained to me that based on my current vision she doesn't recommend a LASIK procedure right now to be conservative which is probably the first Doc ever to say no to a procedure that would make them money which is a testament of true analysis where patient comes first. I'm moving to NY for my school and Dr. Shamie was extremely nice to offer me another consultation within a year to see where I'm at. I 💯 recommend Dr. Shamie. Now my husband is also going to her. Please if you want to do the best for your eyes, Dr. Shamie is your best doc!" - Patient Testimonial

Cloudy, blurry, or dim vision… glare from headlights at night…, or needing brighter light to read are all signs of cataracts. 👁️

Over time, cataracts can make everyday activities difficult, but the good news is they’re highly treatable. Cataract surgery replaces the cloudy lens with a clear artificial one, restoring sharp, bright vision so you can get back to seeing life clearly.

Andrea Rodriguez takes us through her LASIK journey and shares how it transformed her daily life. 👀

LASIK reshapes the cornea to improve how light is focused on the retina, correcting common vision problems such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.

Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) is a laser vision correction option for patients who may not be ideal candidates for LASIK. PRK can be better for those with thinner corneas, dry eyes, or certain lifestyle factors. Dr. Hura explains how PRK works, who benefits most, and why it remains a safe and effective option for achieving clear vision.
