Occasionally there have been posts asking about the availability and cost of laser eye surgery in the Dominican Republic.
Dr. Carlino M. Gonzalez of Unidad Oftalmologica, the eye surgeon who removed the cataracts from my wife's eyes, merits serious consideration. Several of the doctors we go to in Santo Domingo have had laser surgery by him, as have several other friends. All recommend him highly. The present charge for the operation is US$450/eye.
Dr. Gonzalez is one of 6 eye specialists in the Unidad Oftalmologica. Each doctor has different specialties, so that all possible eye problems are covered by the group. Unidad Oftalmologica is located in the Institute of Cirugia Especializada at #208 Ave Bolivar in Santo Domingo. The phone number is 687-5857
Dr. Gonzalez performs laser surgery every Thursday and cataract removal every Wednesday.
