I had a wonderful experience at River Drive Surgery & Laser Center. The staff is friendly and efficient and the Center is super clean. I felt very comfortable at both procedures that I had at River Drive and highly recommend using this facility.

African Americans Can Reduce Their Risk for Eye Disease
Eye disease does not affect all races equally. African Americans are more likely to develop certain eye diseases like cataracts, glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy yet are less likely to receive necessary eye surgery.
Vitamin B3 as a New Glaucoma Treatment
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that can elevate inner eye pressure to dangerous levels and damage the optic nerve, causing permanent vision loss. Today, more than three million Americans have glaucoma, but half are unaware they have the disease.
I must say I was nervous about having my eye worked on even for a routine cataract procedure. The staff were very efficient and professional, but they were also clearly caring and put me at ease through out the visit. I have had no problems and feel confident towards getting my other eye operated on this December.
