This was such a good experience for me . I knew I had cataracts and needed new lenses. With glaucoma, I’m familiar with The Eye Center on E Wayne st. (Now called The Eye Surgical Center of Fort Wayne) The surgery went very well and I appreciate Dr.Ponugoti’s exceptional skills with my procedure. The staff was also kind and helpful. Yes I would definitely recommend the Eye Surgical Center to excellent eye care
