After paying additional $4000 for Toric IOL and YAG procedure about 1 month post surgery do not have the 20/20 distance vision I expected. Incorrect lens Rx were used! Was told about 5% of patients experience this and that another laser procedure could correct vision to 20/20. Experienced unexpected pain during cataract surgeries due to dry eyes and now lack of confidence in Dr. Ford, no way is he going to do another procedure on me!

I just found out from a friend that Dr. Ford is doing illegal billing. Question his staff, you will soon find out (if they are honest) that he is a money searching guy trying to maintain/control his expenditures.

I've had many eye surgeries as a result of diabetes.Most of the doctors I have seen will do eye surgeries without explaining any long term effects, so now I have found out that my eyes have been damaged as a result of too many surgeries that should never have been done.On my latest visit I went to have my eyes checked for glasses and instead of doing just that this doctors office added once again to many things to my visit and charging for un necessary procedures and still not getting done what I scheduled for.All these appointments the staff doesn't listen and they do whatever they want to just bumped up the charges.See several doctors and ask questions,this doctor will leave the office and leave you stranded to just make his golf time.

I couldn't see well and Dr. Ford tried to sell me on surgery and expensive glasses. I went to another doctor and all I needed was reading glasses. Is all about the money with this doctor.
