New York Presbyterian Hospitals has announced cancellation of all elective surgery including cataract surgery as of Monday, March 16, in order to conserve supplies and equipment for a surge in patients with COVID-19. To my patients scheduled for surgery: you will be receiving a call from my staff with updates. Thank you for understanding and I’ll see you soon.

Precautions for COVID-19 / coronavirus: If you are experiencing flu symptoms such as fever, cough or shortness of breath, please see your primary care doctor. If you have traveled outside the country in the last 3 weeks, please call to reschedule your routine eye appointment.
