I see Dr. Sklar for my regular exams but he also just performed cataract surgery on my 88 year old mom. She had waited way too long for the procedure but Dr Sklar removed it and replaced the lens. No pain, no complications, not even a little redness! And it’s like a miracle how well she can see now.

Dr. Sklar is an efficient eye doctor. You don't have to wait months for an appointment. He solved a problem I had been dealing with for years in one visit. I would certainly recommend a try if you are in the market for a Dr.

Competent and very knowledgable in eye diseases and cure. I recommend him "blindly" (no pun intended).
