    Cataract surgery comes with a lot of questions - risks options types of lenses and more. I am grateful that my care giver and team spent so much time analyzing my condition and then explaining my options in simple plain terms.

    I have had this operation in my other eye three times and I have never had a doctor explain everything he was going to do why and how. Dr. Kim explained everything so I could really understand the procedure. He has a great personality.
