Patient Stories: Engin Serpersu

Cataract Surgery Gave Engin His Confidence Back

“It was very quick and painless, and the impact was immediately noticeable after the surgery. You could keep fine-tuning the adjustment — it took mine twice, and after the second month it was very comfortable.”

Engin Serpersu’s career required clear vision. When he began struggling with blurry eyesight and constantly changing glasses, he turned to the cataract specialists in Jacksonville, FL at Florida Eye Specialists.

After undergoing cataract surgery with Dr. Francis and getting the Light Adjustable Lens™ he was able to fine-tune his vision post-surgery. Now he’s back doing what he loves – driving, biking, walking the beach, and even playing volleyball with confidence.

“I’m a retired professor of biochemistry and biophysics. All of my work is on computers, and we look at different types of texts or scientific documents — so all of that requires really good eye vision.

The first time I realized my vision was going down, especially in my left eye, I learned it had become 20/100. So that was pretty weak vision, which meant my right eye was taking all the load. I could never feel comfortable with bifocals, so I had to constantly keep changing my glasses. It turned out a cataract was causing all of this.

I decided to have the surgery. The day of the surgery was very comfortable in many aspects — I think Dr. Francis has very light hands. It was very quick and painless, and the impact was immediately noticeable after the surgery. You could keep fine-tuning the adjustment — it took mine twice, and after the second month it was very comfortable.

I can now comfortably drive, ride my bicycle, walk on the beach, or even find a place to play volleyball more comfortably.”
