Story about Keratoconus .

So thankful to Dr Boxer-Wachler in LA, USA

Feb 3, 2016

My vision has deteriorated since 1999. Glasses used to be ok and it was hard to wear contacts. Over the coming years night time driving began to be almost impossible because of the smearing and duplications of lights etc. It was getting so bad that I had the hardest time passing my drivers license vision test. I was panicked because there was not a good Vision Dr close by me that could help. I searched online and found Dr Brian Boxer-Wachler. At first I was very skeptical but kept an eye on his patients and review. My vision kept getting worse and I felt that if I was to stop this progression I had better do it now! So almost 6 years ago, I drove myself to Los Angeles (this was very scary!) and had the procedures that he recommended. In three days I was seeing better than I had in probably 15 years! I drove myself home (a 12 hour drive) without any glasses or contacts and could see almost perfectly! I was so happy! My vision has fluctuated over the past several years but has been mostly around 25/20 with just regular toric soft contact lenses.
