Dr. Hynes and her staff have followed my difficult case for over 2 yrs. I arrived to the office of Dr. Hynes in extreme pain and without a diagnosis of what was severely wrong with my eye. She was the first healthcare provider to take the necessary steps to help me. I ended up having shingles in my eye. Dr. Hynes followed my in my hospital stay and has kept close watch on my status for 2 years. She and Renee have helped me through some very difficult times from a pain and vision standpoint. They have always worked me in for appointments. They have progressed my treatment and thankfully most of my vision has been spared. I am grateful for their knowledge and abilities to address my case. More so I am grateful for their friendliness and concern for my situation.
