My experience with Dr. Courtney was wonderful in every way. I was diagnosed with a macular hole in the retina of both my right and left eye. Following 2 retina surgeries, I can now see clearly again with the assistance of my two year old glasses. I can't thank Dr. Courtney enough for the return of my vision.
