After speaking with many patients, several requested that I set up a place where they could tell their stories. I have set aside this area so that their stories, in their own words would be relayed to the world. The following are the patients' unedited comments. In addition, several of these patients have included their email address so that should you have questions/concerns/etc. and would like to get their perspectives and experiences, you can send these requests directly to them. They truly understand what it is like to be in a similar position as yourself and are eager to help in any way they can. I hope that you find this patient perspectives area useful.

Dear Dr. Maller,
Thank you for improving my life and also letting me experience the part of the world that I wanted to experience since I was a small boy. My sight has improved drastically and well lets say some people just got a lot more ugly then they were. My school work also improved and I think it’s safe to say that you worked a miracle. Thank you very much !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I think more wise I can not repay you for this what you have done.

I have decided to buy myself some sport glasses and to play rugby with them.
