LK A. - Aug 31, 2026
After three days of experiencing floaters in my right eye I decided to get an eye exam. I needed to ... go where Medicare was accepted as that is my provider. Shawnee Optical was close and convenient, and they got me an appointment quickly. The tech took some tests on my eye and then shared the results with Dr. Elizabeth Hardin. After she reviewed the results she consulted with me and wanted a few further tests run, which we did. After those results we consulted again and she shared her concern that I need immediate laser surgery as I had retinal tears (Vitreous hemorrhage). They referred me to Dayton Vitreo-Retinal Associates in Dayton for an appointment early the next morning, where the diagnosis was confirmed and the procedure performed. So thankful for Dr. Hardin and this facility to identify my issue and assist my needs quickly. Highly recommend!
