[...] recommended plugs for dry eye. Dr Long did not mention this. Curious about this difference.

I can't emphasize enough how much I appreciated at the time being able to see Dr. Long so quickly, as I was deeply concerned about my face shingles and, especially, my right eye. It was through her testing and exam that my glaucoma was discovered, mild in the left eye and severe in the right, so she immediately prescribed eye drops and scheduled me for laser surgery both eyes. Along with scheduling a field vision test in her office just two days later in August 19. I feel that I am in great hands with Dr. Long and her staff. I am very grateful.

Told the situation was serious, she took time to make sure I understand what needed to happen to reduce the complications as well as give relief Unlike many, she herself researched my medical chart and found that her first and second drugs for the sitaution was on my listed of allergies.
