Although my eyes were dilated, no one warned me about the precautions I should take to gradually and normally recover my vision. Out of ignorance I went out to the parking lot of my car without knowing that the sun's rays, which were so strong, were going to affect me by reflecting on the pavement of the street. So I walked for a block until I reached my car. I think that as doctors they should give one the care that is required. Thanks.

It was a very respectful experience. The wait time in the waiting room was a little long.

Do not like to set in a room for 30 minutes to see doctor. Other than that, all was good.

Dr. Shirey is wonderful. She was very thorough with her exam. I noted she took the time to explain to me the changes in my vision. She reassured me that my condition is not debilitating. Furthermore she explained that she was going to follow up next month to make sure that my eyes were healthy. I appreciate her efforts. She was also very kind. Her assistant Mykala was also very patient and thorough with the eye exam. The team is wonderful.
