Summary

The mission of our practice is to prevent pediatric blindness, alleviate suffering from childhood eye disease and help adults with double vision and strabismus. We specialize in all aspects of pediatric eye care, from managing complex medical and surgical problems to prescribing glasses. Fellowship-trained pediatric ophthalmologists, such as ourselves, are also the specialists most qualified to help adults with double vision and/or strabismus.

While it may be momentarily gratifying to anonymously criticize and vent, it doesn't allow us to identify shortcomings and at least try to do better. And it certainly isn't very brave. If you encounter a problem with our office staff or our doctors, please contact us at (718) 468-9800. We always strive to do better and appreciate constructive criticism.
