Verified Patient Reviews for G. Peyton Neatrour, MD
[Rating Only]
I have the ability to function visually without glasses. I absolutely could not function when I removed my glasses before. And no pain.
The doctor was very thorough and professional. I am one month out and I know I would need readers but I feel My distance isn’t quite as good as before.
excellent care and attention from the doctor and the surgery staff.
Procedure was successful.
My near vision is better, but I still find it somewhat blurry.
The attention was great. I just wish I could see clearer faster
I chose the higher priced option in the surgery for cataracts.. I wasn’t guaranteed 100% success.. I understood that.. but hopes were high.. that I WOULD be able to read some smaller print ..and especially regular print without the aid of reading glasses.. and that had not been the result. I strain greatly to read small print.. so I go quickly for my glasses or a magnifying glass. For regular sized print.. like in a hardbound book.. I can see it pretty well.. but prolonged reading takes me to the comfort of glasses again.. especially for cookbooks.. with measurements that must be exact. Glare in night driving is uncomfortable but not debilitating... I still see slight halo- like circles around headlights. Actually any really overly bright overhead lighting is a bother... but I suppose that is a fact for many ... My distance vision is very good..!
The procedure went well and the results were as expected. However, there were additional costs for the surgery and "lock in" procedures that were not fully explained or noted prior to sending the bills to my insurance. I am aware the paperwork that I signed prior to the surgery stated "any additional costs not covered by insurance is my responsibility", but if I had known how much these additional costs were going to potentially be I would have probably put off or declined the procedure all together. In the future, it might be helpful to insured patients to know how much they could potentially pay before it's all sent to their insurance company. A hypothetical quote maybe? Just leaving it as whatever a person's insurance company decides afterwards isn't a firm quote. The surgery coordinator should include all the items that might not be covered by insurance and what the costs are. My experience went from an initial $4000 to almost $7000.
