      Dr. Vegunta listened carefully to my recapping the history of my vision issue. She provided a detailed examination of my vision impairment and placed me at reasonable ease concerning the possible outcome of any corrective surgeries. I left the session with greater hope for a better quality of life.

      I researched a doctor to treat my blepharospasm and found Dr. Vegunta. She is a neuro-ophthalmologist at Moran and sees patients by referral only. I arranged for my ophthalmologist (Dr. Brian Rose, another good doctor) to refer me to Dr. Vegunta. Totally great experience so far. She has seen me once and we had a phone call to see how her treatment plan was working. I will be seeing her again for the next phase of treatment. Great experience to be provided care by Dr. Vegunta.

      Dr Vegunta is an excellent problem solver! I am grateful for her compassion and knowledge. My vision has been challenging since my TBI and Dr Vegunta is determined to find a correction for me.
