I was a patient of Dr. McCabe in 2021 for cataract surgery. Two days later I was in excruciating pain and returned to the doctors office and They gave me medicine to try to control the pressure in my eye which rose to 65. The following week I was blind in that eye. And now I suffer daily from Painful Blind Eye . She could have prevented my loss of vision by inserting tubes during surgery but chose not to.

I had cataract surgery with Dr McCabe. She pushed mulit-focal lenses and told me that I would be extremely satisfied with them. She said that less than 1% have trouble with the Restore lenses. I had trouble from the first few weeks of the surgery. She said it was just swelling and the my eyesight would improve as the swelling from the surgery subsided. Well it didn't. My eyesight now is not good at all. I have extensive halos, and have trouble driving at night. I have always had good eyesight, until I went to Dr McCabe. In r... read more

Looking at waiting room , over 90% of patients are retired. I would be in the other 10%. I own a business. I've fired a Primary Care Doctor. A Dentist and now a Optomologist. If I can fill out tons of papers on line , numerous text and email reminders and more paper to be filled out on visit. She can be on time too.Lack of respect for patients time.

Awful experience having cataract surgery with Dr McCabe. First eye done, vision bad after. Saw her four times over e few weeks, every time she had a different diagnosis to explain my issues. (After surgery inflammation, then lens didn’t adhere to my eye, then cloudiness, then everything looked fine ). She suggested replacing the lens in first three visits, in fourth visit…said sternly that lens replacement was highly risky. She minimized my concerns, and clearly didn’t even remember me. And how could she….she sees multiple p... read more

She was so know it all and did a lens replacement and the surgery was a nightmare. I was not numbed up enough. This was when she was first there. All doctors pushing lens replacement for cataract surgery should be ashamed of themselves. It works for a couple of years then the lens become worn and dont dilate your eyes properly so that bright light nearly blinds you. Also I walk into a room darker than the one I left and become almost blind because of my inability to see. Why in God's world didnt they know what would happen y... read more

Dr McCabe was very professional and thorough. However the Eye Associates staff was extremely difficult to reach including customer care, prescriptions and scheduling. I could only leave a message. I called 11 times for assistance with a prescription over a week's time period. I finally canceled my cataract surgery because it was impossible to reach anyone by phone.

If you're looking for an expert in her field, look no more. If you're looking for compassion and customer service move on.

Very disappointed in my visit today to have laser treatment to correct cloudiness in right eye. I was told to be there by 6:15AM. I did. The Office was not open and there 5 people waiting outside. Finally someone opened the door at 6:20. I waited over an hour before they called my name. They put drops in my eyes, sent me into another waiting room and told me to keep both eyes SHUT. There I found more disgruntled patients with eyes closed who had been waiting too long. An hour later they took me back for the procedure (which ... read more
