IF YOUR VISION
has become blurry, cloudy or dim, or
things you see are not as bright or colorful as they used to be,
a cataract may have developed in one or both of your eyes.
Many people say that their vision with cataracts is similar
to the e ect of looking through a dirty car windshield.
Your ophthalmologist (an eye doctor) can tell you
whether a cataract or another problem is the cause of
your vision loss.
Medina Regional Hospital is pleased to announce the
addition of three board-certi ed ophthalmologists, Sharron
Acosta, MD; Joseph Kavanagh, MD; and Scott omas,
MD, to Specialty Clinic 2, located at 610 31st St. in Hondo.
Please call
830-379-EYES
(

appointment.
