There was a problem with the prednisolone being too strong for me, since I am not accustomed to using steroids ever. So without hesitation, it was replaced with a milder steroids which gave no trouble. I found Dr. Melendez to be extraordinary efficient to perfection and at the same time, most kind and caring. Thank you greatly for renowned and perfect eyesight!

Dr. Melendez is my hero! I did surgeries on both eyes (no pain at any time) and restored my distance and close-up vision so that I no longer needed glasses which no longer worked. Now, at 71, my vision is as good as it was in my 20's!

(Restore Lens Surgery in 2011 20/20)

My experience with Dr. Melendez has been exceptional. I had the Restore Lens and the extra money spent was well worth it. I can see really great for the first time better than with glasses. He is a great doctor and I recommend him to everyone I know.

(Restore Lens Surgery in 2009)
Now I see life I didn't as a teenager. I can see individual trees on top of the Sandia Mountains. I can do all types of intricate needlework without glasses.

Dr. Melendez is everything you look for in an eye doctor - professional, caring, explains conditions in an understandable way, totally focused in his time with you. I trust him implicitly. He's great!

Recommendations are usually "pro forma" but this one for Dr. Melendez is a moral demand. Dr. Melendez performed not only super and excellent surgeries but, with his acute medical acumen realized that I was in dire straights relative to my oxygen levels. He sent me to hospital and truly saved my life. There are no words of praise and thanks.
