by kckc007, Aug 14, 2006 12:00AM
Hi I'm looking for surgeon that specialize in multifocal IOL in Toronto or Niagara region. I have develope cataract in my left eye and want will need surgery. I have been wearing glasses for 18 years, but I can still remember my youth and not have to wear glasses. I went to see a surgeon, but he doesn't specialize in multifocal IOL. I want to talk to a doctor that have done this kind of procedure (REZOOM or RESTOR). Thank you for any information and hope to read it soom.

I read your message and tried to look for Donald Nixon at Royal Victorian Hospital. Can you tell me which city it's located at and any contact information if possible. Thx.

I don't know too much about Ontario,sorry. I have been to Buffalo when my brother lived there and ventured into Toronto. But I have two names for you now:

Donald Nixon in Barrie

and W. Bruce Jackson in Ottawa

Hope that helps.

Thx for the info. eyecu, but I need to find someone in Toronto or the Niagara region. Barrie and Ottawa is a bit far for me to think about doing any surgery. I'm just hoping that there is someone that did the surgery in Toronto and have info. for me. So far after reading these comments posted by others, I am thinking of going for the REZOOM IOL. There seems to be more satisfied people with REZOOM then others. If you have any experiences that you would like to share with me I would greatly appreciate it. Thx.

I checked things out further and Don Nixon who I mentioned, Dr. George Beiko and Dr. Rosa Braga-Mele. Not sure where they all are located.
