Second Sight

Totally Amazing Clinic! Dr. Jensen-TO and Dr. Tse are amazing!!!!!!! I am writing this review for 2 reasons; 1. To get the word out that this clinic and Dr. Tse are the best Eye Clinic/Doctors In have had in my 30 years of wearing glasses/contacts. 2. To WARN OTHER CONTACT LENS Users what I DID WRONG as a contact lens user to cause this eye infection called a Cornea Ulcer. First, I have been a patient of eye clinics for 30 years this year. As I have moved a few times and do travel for work I have gone to 5 clinics in that time. I have never had a bad experience, however, Site for Site and Dr. Tse has been by far the best experience I have had.Ever! Recently, I was traveling and had my suitcase stolen with by solution and lens case in it. I had a spare case in my car. I used it. I was on a long drive and pulled over in a rest stop to sleep. I had my contacts in. As my eyes were dry, I decided to use some of the "old" solution in the storage case to wet my eyes. No doubt it was contaminated. Solution is for temp storage, not longer term. DO NOT SLEEP with contacts in EVEN IF you have been told you can or have done it, like I had, many times. During the long drive I got an eye infection, which got worse. Pain, Redness, Tearing and sensitivity to light. I thought it would get better. It did not and so I went into Second Sight, which is 1 of 2 clinics. I was told it was serious and was given prescriptions for drops, the first starting every 5 mins for 1/2 hour. Then every half hour and eventually 1x per hour. The docs really know their stuff. I was told this is kinda rare, especially the size of mine which was 1. mm. It took over a week to get better. I had seen Dr. Tse Wed, Thurs, Friday and Saturday. She was so concerned she made an appointment for me on a Sunday. She came in on her day, when the clinic was closed to check my eyes. WHO does that? This clinic CARES! The empathy and compassion was amazing. The staff is amazing. This treatment may very well have prevented a cornea transplant. Today, after several appointments, a regime of 3 eye prescriptions, the infection has gone. I do have a .3 mm scar which will always be there, as the infection was that severe. MY price to pay long term for POOR USE OF CONTACT LENSES. So, I am switching to one day contacts and promised Dr Tse to never wear them more than one day and NEVER SLEEP IN THEM. I recommend this for anyone. Hopefully you will just be seeing them for routine eye exams for glasses or contacts. And one last thing. I have always been told to get an eye exam every 2 years. The clinic informed me that IF YOU WEAR CONTACTS IT IS EVERY YEAR. Thanks Dr Tse and team. You are amazing at what you do and total gems! Kelly B.
