Amazing,he could see my mother was uncomfortable and nervous,he put her at ease and spoke to her in a friendly manner.he told her about his family and where he came from. My mother was afraid of the pain and he gave her an antiseptic injection to put her at ease and extra drops again.After the injection there was a little blood coming from the eye,he reassured her everything was ok.he got the eye cleaned up and got the nurses to patch up cover over the eye. I wish to thank everyone involved.
