Mr Sahu, in every respect, left me confident, comfortable, and, moreover, satisfied with the outcomes. Perhaps my only complaint is that I will now need to spend more time cleaning our home, as I can now see the dirt with greater granularity. Well done, Debendra, you're a real pro.

I went to opticians for a pair of glasses and this "macular hole" was discovered. Had an appointment with Mr. Sahu, who is a wonderful specialist and so comforting and understanding.
