"Dr. Penrose performed cateract surgery on both of my eyes... I now have 20/20 vision in both eyes. I highly recommend Dr. Penrose. It was a very positive and painless experience."

"I went to Dr. Ballin's office... They herded me through like cattle for my eye exam... My glasses came back and were way too strong for my eyes... He was incredibly rude and Pompous."

— Healthgrades

"Dr. Leland Rosenblum is probably the very best and most sought-after eye specialist on the Monterey Peninsula. The office staff are efficient and always helpful and thorough."
