Can anyone tell me about this eye doctor in Cairo?

Question by Dolores G. Llamas: Can anyone tell me about this eye doctor in Cairo?
The Eye Clinic of Dr Ahmed Khalil

Does anyone know about him? Is he any good?

I want to get refractive (Lasik) surgery this year. Since this surgery is elective and not necessary, I’d have to pay for it myself. My hope is that I can pay for it while visiting Egypt this year right after Eid ul-Fitr. I did some online seeking, and found the doctor above. Does anyone know about him?

Does anyone know of a really good doctor, whether it’s Dr Khalil or not? It has to be done very well, because I have only one eye – the other was removed back in 1984 – so I have no back-up plan, lol.

I have glaucoma, myopia and astigmatism in the remaining eye. The visual acuity without glasses is 6/22, and I can’t remember what it is with glasses, but it’s anywhere between 6/6 and 6/8.

Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanx.
Thank you, everyone, for your input. Doyle, special thanks to you for your prayers. Everyone can use all the prayer they can get, lol!

I emailed Dr Khalil, and he replied. His advice was to not have the surgery, since I have only one eye. Better to keep glasses ’cause they can offer protection just in case anything hit me in the eye.

Doctors have said this for decades, ’cause I’ve wanted contact lenses in the past several times. It’s frustrating, because really, what are the chances of getting hit in the eye? Slim chances.

Anyway, I’ll keep the glasses. Sucks, but I’ll do it.

Whatever, I’m looking forward to Egypt again in October, woohoo!
