Testimonial - Rick Esser - Corneoplastique

 After numerous treatments for my Conjunctivochalasis at the hands of top doctors in Chicago, through research over the Internet and a suggestion from one of the top eye surgeons in Chicago, I flew from to Jacksonville, Florida and was examined by Dr. Arun Gulani.  Dr. Gulani identified the pathology. 

He performed a two-quadrant chalasis repair with an amniotic membrane graft.  The amniotic membrane transplant is like putting down a started fertilizer on your lawn; the skin that grows over the transplanted membrane is very strong.  Immediately coming out of surgery I noticed that I had less burning in my eye and quality of vision was better.  I would estimate that the Dr. Gulani’s chalasis surgery resulted in approximately a 70% improvement in my symptmology.  The eye feels quite comfortable, does not require artificial tears, and the vision is also more stable.  My conjuctiva remains somewhat  pinkish red but I have escaped the terrible eye pain I was in and my quality of vision is markedly improved. 

 

Even two years after my surgery, Dr. Gulani’s office continues to monitor my progress.  I only wish I lived closer to Florida because I saw all the top Ophthalmologist in greater Chicago Metropolitan area and none had the surgical skill he has.
