I had a Salzmann Nodule on my left eye. Removal of the nodule was quick and painless. Recovery took about 8 days and the most discomfort I felt was the first day and it was equivalent to having a hair in my eye. After 8 days thShow moree bandage contact was removed and my vision was fully restored. Dr. Darlington took time to answer all my questions through the whole process. I'm very satisfied with both the process and the results. I will likely have to have a Salzmann Nodule removed from my right eye at some point and I will return to Dr. Darlington to do the procedure with confidence and without concern.

Dr Darlington is an extremely talented eye surgeon. I had cataract and canaloplasty surgery at the same time. I can now see 20/20 and I don’t need to use eye drops anymore for glaucoma. If you need cataract or glaucoma surgery, go to Dr Darlington, he is the best.
