I have been with Dr Holt for several years. He's been treating my dry eye and I find him to be very caring, taking time to explain, and up-to-date with new procedures. I highly recommend him.

Dr. Holt was very nice & respectful toward me. I still do not have clear vision this morning but with the drop he is having me do every hour of the daytime, he said things should be better in a couple of days. My fingers are crossed to have clear vision again by Sunday!
