Dr. Dana seemed very knowledgeable about my cornea and dry eye challenges. He displayed an approachable manner which eased my anxieties. He also welcomed my questions and answered them in a way a patient with no or very little medical knowledge could understand and process.

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.

I thought Dr. Dana was excellent. He was pleasant and seemed interested in me as a person. He was also very professional. He asked all the right questions related to my issue, and I feel he prescribed the appropriate treatment. I was shocked that they put the "plugs" in right away, at this visit rather than making another appointment!

I was very impressed with my care at Mass Eye & Ear. From the first call requesting an appointment, to arriving and checking in and out, to the technician and doctors, my experience was pleasant, informative, and professional. Everything was explained from the tests to the proposed treatment. Mass Eye & Ear deserves its reputation of being one of the best healthcare providers in the world.

I have been a patient of Dr. Dana for several years. He is always thorough in his care of my cornea. I continue to be satisfied with his care.

Dr. Dana solved my problem with very painful corneal inflammation without any damaging side effects. This after another doctor failed. My eyes normalized and I have no pain thanks to him. When this was going on he seemed to have plan B in case needed and I had a feeling he will not give up on me. Thus I owe him the good, pain free life I have now. Many thanks.
