I have Type I Diabetes and in the mid 1980s I wasn't taking good care of myself and some of the blood vessels in my eyes were leaking. Dr. Daly did a few laser treatments in both eyes and to this day I haven't had any problems. Thank you, Dr. Daly.

Dr. Daly waited in his office to 6pm as my wife rushed me to see him. He quickly diagnosed my detached retina and he was able to clearly explain the surgery that was needed along with my prospects.The surgery was challenging, but the results were excellent.Today we had the follow-up and he explained that after my eye heals I can get corrective glasses and have normal eyesight going forward.Dr. Daly saved my eyesight!

I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH MY RETINA AS DID MY HUSBAND. DR. DALY HAS ALWAYS SPENT A LOT OF TIME DISCUSSING THE TREATMENT OPTIONS AND HAS ACTED ABOVE AND BEYOND IN TREATING ME. (MY RETINA DETACHED ON CHRISTMAS EVE DAY AND I HAD AN OPERATION ON DEC. 26). HE IS ALWAYS ENCOURAGING, PROFESSIONAL AND KIND.

I was seeing flashes and floaters on a Saturday, consulted with a cornea/lens subspecialist friend on Sunday, and, on his recommendation, was in Dr. Daly's office Monday monday morning and in his operating room Monday afternoon for cryotherapy to prevent retinal detachment. My experience was fully satisfactory, with everything fully explained and work done in a competent and friendly manner.

Doc Daly is an excellent, caring, knowlegable eye-care physican. Our entire family sees him for their eye health; in some cases simply as a yearly check, in others AMD and detached & torn retina etc...wouldn't trust my eyes to anyone else. I would (and have) highly recommended Dr. Daly.
