    I needed a cataract evaluation and was referred to Dr Hunter. Everything about my experience was great! They got me in quickly and once there, everyone was kind, helpful, and efficient. Dr Hunter patiently explained all the options to me and his surgery coordinator answered all of my questions. They are a lovely group of medical professionals and I highly recommend them.

    I had surgery on my eye two months ago. My vision was bad because I had a hole in my macular. Dr Brugger repaired it. The surgery went well and my vision has greatly improved. I am great full to him and his staff at Carolina Eyecare. Their knowledge and professionalism was for my benefit.
