I've only worn glasses for about 10 years after many decades of perfect vision. I never thought any of the glasses prescribed by three other physicians really corrected my vision very well. Dr Barnes nailed it!! I can't believe how well I can see now. I'm finally a believer that glasses can correct your vision if your Dr prescribes the right lenses. Thank you Dr Barnes!!

Dr. Barnes is a compassionate, smart, and experience doctor. I went to Dr. Barnes during a serious emergency (scratched my cornea and my cornea was inflamed). I was in more pain than I had ever experienced in my life. His staff kindly rushed me in to see him. Dr. Barnes explained everything to me, examined me even while I was screaming in pain, and treated me with respect and kindness. He even ran to his car to grab a medicine that would help relieve my pain. It’s clear he is a good man and a great doctor. Now my eye is in no more pain and I’m slowly regaining full vision in my eye. Thank you, Dr. Barnes!
