During my initial consultation with Dr. Darlington two years ago, I had been reliant on corrective lenses due to nearsightedness and astigmatism since the age of six. By that time, contact lenses had become increasingly uncomfortable for me, and returning to glasses was not an option I was willing to consider. After a thorough examination of my eyes, Dr. Darlington and I evaluated several possibilities, ultimately deciding that cataract surgery combined with multifocal intraocular lenses would best suit my vision needs. The procedure proceeded smoothly, and since then, I have enjoyed clear vision at all distances—close, mid-range, and long. The ability to wake up each day without the hassle of contacts or glasses has been one of the most significant benefits I’ve experienced throughout my life.
During my most recent visit, everything was progressing well, although I have noticed a slight haziness. Dr. Darlington had previously informed me that this development was a potential outcome following surgery. He recommended a YAG laser capsulotomy, a quick and painless procedure that allows me to resume work immediately afterward, should I choose to. I appreciate his reassurance that this will be a one-time procedure.
I cannot recommend Dr. Darlington highly enough; he is an exceptional doctor and an outstanding surgeon. Each visit is a positive experience, thanks to him and his dedicated staff.
