Would not recommend. I now have partial vision in my right eye because of a error this doctor made. What was suppose to be a routine surgery has now cost me vision and money to try and fix it.

Dr. Citron is very knowledgeable in all aspects of glaucoma. He answers all my questions in great detail. I feel very lucky to have him as my glaucoma doctor. One day the damage from glaucoma will be able to be reversed.Dr. Citron will be the one to perform that treatment on me.
