The Key-Whitman state-of-the-art surgery center and leading edge laser technology. • Comprehensive Adult Eye Care As Dr. Howell explains, “When time came for me to have my cataract surgery, I decided no one else was going to do the surgery with the best IOL available, except for my friend and colleague, and the best eye surgeon, Dr. Whitman, even though I live 350 miles from Dallas.” Today, Dr. Howell’s vision is better than his pre-cataract days. • Cataract Surgery After the cataract surgery and a PRK procedure to address slight myopia in one eye, “I was eventually able to become glasses and contacts free most of the time. At my last follow up, the vision in my left eye was 20/15 with no correction. I can read newspapers and magazines and see the com- puter screen with no correction, though I will put on a pair of readers if I’m going to read a novel,” Dr. Howell says. • Eyelid Surgery & Botox® Today, Dr. Howell is enjoying golf and retirement. He’s also glad he struck up a conversation with his “young mentor” about accommodative lenses those years back in Atlanta. According to Dr. Howell, “That surgery was just about the best thing that ever happened to me, and I would recom- mend Dr. Whitman to anyone. When you go to Jeff’s place, you don’t need to go anyplace else.” • Crystalens®, Tecnis® & the Toric IOL • Management of Glaucoma & Corneal Disease • Laser Vision Correction Give us a call today 214-220-3937 or Toll-Free 800-442-5330 www.keywhitman.com Six locations to serve you Dallas, Mesquite, North Dallas, Plano, North Arlington & South Arlington.
