"After having my auto accident, I was ashamed to go into public without my sunglasses. When a friend referred me to Dr. Salmenson, I was skeptical. I was ashamed for even my husband to see me without my sunglasses let alone another person. My first visit put all of my fears to rest. Dr. Salmenson and his professional staff were kind and caring. They even dimmed the lights as not to irritate my eyes. Today, I have newfound self-esteem after my surgery. Thank you, thank you, and thank you!"
