I had my right eye lasered yesterdayand I seem to have a little black dot like a little mat is flying in front of my face now. Is this normal? Will it go away or do I need to come in?

I would never refer anyone to Pendleton Eye Care. My appointment was on a Friday morning at 10:00am. After sitting in the waiting room for over and a half at 11:30 I left never to go back. I had used them for seven years and always had a problem with too much waiting for service, but this was too much. Time for a new doctor.

He always takes time to explain eye exam results and diagnosis. I appreciate a doctor who spends time with his patients
