I had lost my vision due to retinal detachment - A disease which I have heard about for the first time. I underwent a surgery on my retina immediately and had my vision restored. I am very grateful to Dr. Shaileen Parikh and his team who treated me like a family member. In addition to that, he even counselled me about the disease and the treatment. The hospital has all modern facilities to treat retinal diseases.
Our experience at 3rd eye clinic has been excellent. We were treated with the utmost in professionalism and courtesy. It was very difficult for me to accept the fact that I had lost my vision in one eye because of an injury at a very young age. But with the reassurance from Dr. Shaileen, I underwent a surgery and now my complete vision has been restored. The surgery was painless and I believe I was in the best place for this treatment. Definitely this clinic has become the "3rd eye" for me.
I had completely lost my vision in the left eye. For 3 months, no doctor was able to diagnose the disease. I have undergone retina surgery at 3rd eye clinic for this rare and complicated retina disease. And within a few weeks, my complete vision was restored. Thanks to Dr. Shaileen Parikh and the 3rd eye team for saving my eyesight.
