RUINED MY VISION

About two years ago I had a retina tear, and surgery from a Pacific Eye surgeon to repair it. The surgery turned out badly. Dr. Jennifer A. Spiegel, who performed the surgery said: “it happens” and walked out. Everything in my left eye appears much smaller in size and badly distorted. There are no straight lines in that eye. Every door, picture frame, power pole, anything that is straight, is now bent in several places. I constantly see double flashes of light, sometimes every minute or so. They look like fireflies or meteorites. I have lost my depth perception. Pictures of my retina show my macula is pulled flat on one side, instead of being cup shaped. I have not been able to find any reviews of my surgeon anywhere in the 3 states and the 5 cities where she has practiced in the last 12 years. The only procedure mentioned is LASIK. I cannot find any reference of her ever being a retina specialist before coming to the Central Coast.

I now go to a true retina specialist, Dr. Nathan Steinle, who has top grades in his training and impeccable reviews. This highly qualified specialist told me I have a stretched retina. It is pulling on my macula, causing the distortion. The constant flashes are caused by the stretched retina. I cannot read or write without keeping one eye closed, otherwise, I see double characters My left eye is limited in function, and cannot be repaired. I often wake up at night, thinking about my eyesight, and how I could have had a different outcome. My primary eye caregiver at Pacific Eye Surgeons, whom I trusted, may have used poor judgement by sending me to Dr. Spiegel, with the admonishment: “I was going to lose the vision in my eye” if I didn’t rush over to her office. He used to send all of his retina patients to Dr. Steinle.
