The following feedback has been shared by Misha Badial's patients:
"I just wanted to write to thank you for the cataract and lens replacement surgery you carried out on both of my eyes.
Although I was never sure what the outcome might be, the results have been way beyond anything I could have imagined. For the first time in many years I am not reliant on glasses and, in fact, have stopped using them altogether.
I understand I need to be patient as my eyes recover, but the results so far are spectacular. Funnily enough, it is in my day-to-day life where I notice it most. The ability to be able to clearly see the dashboard of my car or read a menu or even read a text sent by one of my daughters. The difference is fantastic.
And may I also thank you personally for making the entire process so comfortable and free of stress. Your kindness and your professionalism were outstanding and I really appreciate everything you have done for me. In very real terms, you have transformed my sight and, in so doing, have transformed my quality of life. Thank you so much." Paul
