I recently had very successful cataract surgery to my right eye carried out by Dr Venki Sundaram. I was apprehensive prior to the operation, but was pleasantly surprised how easy and painless the whole process was made by the skill and experience of Venki and his team. I would highly recommend him to anyone with eye problems.T.J.H. May 2019
