“I can see again!”
I had RK about 30 years ago with another physician. I have since developed cataracts and vision changes. Dr. Saini had his hands full with my case. We started with the worst eye because it had 8 RK incisions. After cataract surgery, the vision and corneal surface changed continually for about 3 weeks, then settled down completely and I now have 20/20 vision in that eye. The second eye had 4 RK incisions and the cataract surgery went without a hitch. IT'S A MIRACLE! I am 20/20 in both eyes.

“Best eye doctor ever”
Prior to seeing Dr. Saini i had seen 3 other Dr. No one could figure out my eye problem. Within a few visits he figured out the problem and a course of action . Stem cell treatment worked wonders. Im forever gratefull for his knowledge and expertise.
