I am a 76-year-old man who recently had cataract surgery. In Jul 2025, I went to the DMV to renew my license, which required an eye test. My vision was bad, but I thought I could pass the test, which didnt happen. I went to Harvard Eye for stronger prescription glasses. Although I could hardly see the chart, I passed the eye exam on the second DMV visit. In Aug 2025, I set an appointment with Dr. Kim, and we discussed cataract surgery. Dr. Kim was reluctant since I have had little to no sight in my left eye since childhood. At that point, we agreed to revisit cataract surgery. In Feb 2026, we agreed to the surgery. On Mar 31, 2026, I had surgery with the best results I could have hoped for. I now see vibrant colors, road signs, and a golf ball beyond 50 yards. Dr. Kim was not only confident in his ability to perform the surgery but also reassuring throughout the process. The cataract surgery I had at Harvard Eye was the most exceptional result for my eyesight during my lifetime.

Im a current patient of Dr. Ashraf Ahmad and I cannot put into words how amazing he is. I made an appointment with him for a pterygium evaluation, this growth on my eye that Ive had for about 10 years. Ive had multiple consultations with other ophthalmologists throughout the years but Ive never been confident or comfortable enough to proceed with surgery. well until I met Dr. Ahmad.From our very first appointment, I knew I found the right doctor. He is personable, caring, professional and highly knowledgeable. He took the time answering my questions and addressing all my concerns. He and his team at Harvard Eye Associates were consistently thorough and attentive throughout this entire process.Day of surgery, I was understandably nervous but talking to Dr. Ahmad during pre-op and all the staff at Alicia Surgery Center really put my nerves at ease. Theres no better feeling than going into surgery comfortable and thats exactly what I felt with Dr. Ahmad and his surgical team.If you are looking for an ophthalmologist, STOP LOOKING because you found the right doctor. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Ashraf Ahmad, I will forever be grateful for his care, dedication, and expertise.

I had an outstanding experience with Harvard Eye Associates, and highly recommend it as a top quality eye care center. Every aspect was exceptional. The staff was welcoming, efficient, and made the entire process smooth. The lobby and offices are modern, large and pristine. Dr Skarvana was thorough in my exam and took the time to explain everything clearly. Her professionalism and attention to detail, and concern made me feel confident and well cared for. I should also mention that Harvard Eye Associates has a doctor on staff for every issue or complication that you may have with your eyes.

I recently had cataract surgery in both eyes with Dr. Savak Teymoorian at Harvard Eye. He helped me choose the proper lenses and the entire process went smoothly and was completely painless. His entire staff was also amazing. Its been just 2 days since my last surgery and Im so excited to see much better!

Cataract Surgery Testimonial, Allan Holdsworth

Allan Holdsworth

“I am writing to thank you and your staff so very much indeed for reuniting me with the world. It’s amazing! (Whilst it did take me a minute to figure out whom I was looking at in the mirror.)

As a musician, my deteriorating vision was really affecting my work and I was beginning to struggle. Even so, I had no idea just how poor my vision really was until after my first surgery. Now it is hard for me to remember or imagine what it was like for me (or anyone else suffering from the same condition) going trough life literally in the dark. Not only has it recharged my working career, enabling me to see my instrument and studio equipment dials, but it has also recharged many other aspects of my life as well.

So again, I would like to thank you very much for giving me a new lease on life. You took the “fear factor” out of a scary procedure, making everything so very patient-friendly. I always knew I was in the best of hands.”
