      Recently I had cataract surgery at ISEC. I am very happy with the service and doctor at ISEC. Like most first time cataract patients, in the beginning I did have a lot of concerns regarding how the surgery is conducted and whether mine can be successful. Since I totally lost vision on my right eye due to cataract, I decided to go ahead with cataract surgery. First thing is to find a doctor with good experience of cataract surgery. After searching on internet I found several places where cataract surgery can be conducted, I finally selected ISEC because of convenience and selected Dr. Choong because of his reputation. I am happy that I selected a good doctor. He is nice and very skillful. Actually all the staff at ISEC I met were nice and professional. Eventually I had surgery on both eyes. Prior to surgery, I was wearing progressive eyeglasses. To eliminate eyeglasses postsurgery, I chose monovision option. Dr. Choong selected right IOLs for me. After surgery, my right eye can see objects clearly from about 1m to far distance; my left eye can read computer and mobile phone clearly at about half meter distance. Although it is monovision, I do not really feel it unless I cover up one eye to realize one eye is clear while the other is not.

      The best experience I've ever had when it comes to see a doctor. Generally, all the staffs in ISEC were good and professional. Dr. Choong was patient enough to explain the problem of my eyes, and prescribed the right medicines for me. He smiled all the time and was not arrogant at all (even though I asked a lot of questions). The pharmacist was good as well, she explained to me how to use the eye drops in details. I saw a lot of reviews saying that the waiting time was very long. This did not happen to me. I made an appointment earlier at 11.40pm, and I was called to see the doctor on time. ISEC have a very good system, where you'll have to register at Section 1, then you'll be called to have a small test on your eyes at Section 2, then you have to wait to see the doctor. After that, you can scan your bar code, wait to pay at the cashier and take the medicines prescribed by the doctor. Lastly, you'll have to return to Section 1 to book for your next appointment (if you have to). The whole process took me no more than 40 mins. I do agree that it is quite pricey, but it's worth it. Will definitely recommend Dr. Choong in ISEC to anyone who needs a professional eye specialist for their eyesight problems.
