Came in on an emergency visit, I lost my vision in one eye. I came in very frighten even though I am a nurse practioner. I had an unbeliveable check up of my eyes. Everything that was possible to check, Dr Vale did. I had eye mapping, my vessels checked, and more. I had a comfortable, unrushed vist which you usually do not get as an emergency. I was thrilled with my results as no permanent damage was found. Kind, courteous & caring offece.
