I am very grateful to Dr. Dana for solving my problem with dry eyes . His treatment lets me live a normal painless life and does not have any side effects. While my eyes are stable now, I am 100% sure that if something happens he will fix it. On top of that he is a kind, caring human being who remembers me after not seeing me one year. The people that work with him are high level as well.

I have been treated by Dr Dana for a long time. He is a caring articulate Dr who listens and is open to discussing any concerns I have. He treats the fellows with respect and is open to any ideas they have as well. I am grateful to Mass Eye and especially to Dr Dana for healing my cornea.

I was very impressed with Dr. Dana's assessment of my dry eye and the immediate treatment for that ailment. He answered all of my questions including one that he had no actual knowledge of and that made a great impact on a hard decision I had to make regarding my eye care. He readily shared the information he was accumulating during the exam. I appreciated that. He is very approachable and kind.
