Dr. Marc Howard Shomer, MD

I had an amazing visit with Dr. Shomer. He has brought a board a glaucoma specialist into his practice, and I had a chance to meet him as well. He has done an SLT treatment for me. Lowered my eye pressure and I’m not even using Glaucoma drops anymore. I also did cataract surgery with Dr. Shomer. He gave me the panoptic lenses and now I can see everything without glasses up close and far away.

Dr Shomer was a fantastic eye doctor. I was suffering from dry eyes and went in to see him and he found out it was due to the medications I was taking. I talked to my regular doctor and he changed it and my dry eye went away. Dr Shomer was so thorough to look at all my meds and the back of my eye. So glad he found this.

If you are searching for a qualified Ophthalmologist to perform surgery to remove cataracts with intraocular (IOL) lens placement, STOP right here, look no further and book your appointment now with Dr. Marc Shomer. I have just completed two surgeries (right and left eye) to have cataracts removed and IOLs placed by Dr. Shomer. I would not even consider recommending anyone else other than Dr. Shomer for this surgery. Before going any further, I am compelled to mention that I am a Registered Nurse practicing for years in a hospital environment. My only point here is that I have had the opportunity to work with a wide variety of doctors in a variety of specialties. In the end, I feel confident to tell you that Dr. Shomer is clearly among the best physicians I have seen concerning both technical competence and bedside manner. If you are not aware, cataract surgery is performed on only one eye - with a two-week minimum recovery period before surgery on the other eye is… considered. In my case, I was fortunate to arrange the surgery on each eye within this two-week lag between each eye. Dr. Shomer's staff was extremely helpful to arrange scheduling in advance for the numerous preop and postop appointments with his office as well as the surgery center. There was a lot of information to absorb and comprehend in order to reach decisions of the type of IOL lenses to be placed and optional technical equipment to be used during the surgery. Dr. Shomer provided very clear documentation to explain these options. But perhaps most important is his superior bedside manner with a calm and humble ability to clearly answer any questions we had. For a relatively quick surgery, there is a LOT involved to reach the decisions and make arrangements. These surgeries are performed with sedation which left me barely conscious and aware of what is happening during the procedure - this is intentional by the way, as the physician needs to have the patient able to respond to commands during the surgery. The point here, is that I was aware of Dr. Shomer's caring bedside manner during the surgery. He was calm and confident - as a result I was the same. At the preop appointments, he took time to answer all questions. At the postop appointments he was VERY thorough to examine my eyes and ask questions to determine if everything was 'ok'. So if you are considering cataract surgery - go to Dr. Shomer, nobody else. And do it as soon as you can. The results are staggering, nothing short of miraculous. I simply can't explain to you the before/after difference in crisp clarity of vision, brilliance of the light, and amazing variety of colors that I did not realize before the surgeries. My only regret is having waited so long before getting it done.

I was so frustrated with not being able to see and did not know what to do. I went to see Shomer and he was so nice. Very personable and easy to talk to, said I had catracts and needed surgery. Was nervious but decided to just do it. He did laser cataract surgery and some kind of cool lens and wow. I had glasses all my life now I can see without glasses crystal clear. so nice can't believe it. amazed everyday now

Thank you so much to Dr Shomer for performing laser cataract surgery. so happy with the results!!!

Dr. Shomer is a very good doctor, he cares, takes time with me, and always asks if I have any other questions or concerns. He takes good care of me.

Awesome experience! I wish all my doctors cared this much and went out of their way to help me. Thanks to this I feel so much better

Dr Shomer has a really pleasant unhurried manner about him. Accurate diagnosis and impressive credentials too.

I had a great experience at Dr Shomer's office. He really knows what he is doing and cares to explain it to me so I could understand. Thanks!

Dr Shomer is a true professional. He is highly educated, very knowledgeable, and shows in many ways that he truly cares about the welfare of his patients. He listens, explains treatments carefully, and after many visits with him as well as an eye operation, I can only give him and his staff the highest marks. I would definitely recommend Dr. Shomer to any friends and family.
