I saw him for the 2nd time. 1st time he told me I didn't need to see him i needed to go to a regular optamolgist not him. My pressure was up but I had / have severe respiratory & I had coughed to the point of breaking blood vessels in my eye. He gave me drops i understood for that. He talked down to me. 2nd appointment to day him & his nurse talked down to me like I was a child & stupid. Now saying I have glaucoma they told me last appointment. Nope ^ drops were for pressure & that's why he wanted to to go to another dr. Again nope. I am 52 yrs old & was born with jra & retinitis so I've many specialists at cleveland clinc so I know what i hear plus I only have sight in right eye so my sight is a big deal. I've always done what I was asked to protect my sight. I will not got to him again. Dr. Zegra was wonderful never had a problem.

This was a very serious surgery. I had done on my eye that could’ve left me blind. It came up unexpectedly, and I was in surgery before you know it with the help of Dr. Coney! He was the absolute best from the beginning to end and took away, most of my anxiety just knowing what a qualified surgeon he was! Thank you, Dr. Connie and staff I will appreciate this for the rest of my life
