When Nancy B. woke up with wavy and bumpy vision in her right eye, knew she needed help. Through a recommendation, she found Mid Atlantic Retina. On her first visit, she met Dr. Kuriyan who immediately assessed her condition and started a treatment plan.
“As soon as I walked in and met him, I knew Dr. Kuriyan would help. He has a great bedside manner, is cheerful and optimistic about my care.”
Nancy was diagnosed with Age-Related Wet Macular Degeneration, a common condition among people 50 years and older that can cause central vision loss. This condition greatly affected Nancy’s daily life. At first, Nancy was afraid to lose her vision, but she remained optimistic.
Nancy has been receiving treatment close to her home in Langhorne with Dr. Kuriyan for about two years and now has recovered vision in her right eye.
“Things have got better. When I started I wasn’t able to drive and now I am able to drive!”
Nancy values the care she’s received from Dr. Kuriyan and his staff. She was nervous about receiving her medication via injection in the eye, but the encouraging staff helped build her confidence.
When Nancy learned of her neighbor’s early development of wet age-related macular degeneration, Nancy became worried about her own diagnosis. However, Nancy is grateful she was diagnosed with the condition at a time when treatment and research are readily available and well developed.
Knowing there are many people who are suffering from the same condition, Nancy offers this advice; “Immediately get yourself to a professional. Immediate treatment and keeping up your appointments is very important.”
“I am very happy with the office and the staff is wonderful. I’ve found the right place.” Nancy feels blessed for the care that Dr. Kuriyan and Mid Atlantic Retina have provided her.
