Dr. Wisotsky took away my natural lens during the retinal detachment surgery, but he lied to me that I developed an acute cataract after the surgery. I didn't find out until I saw other doctors. The new doctors told me that my crystalline lens was taken away, and therefore I didn't have a cataract. They wrote "Aphakia" (absence of lens) in my medical records. And the ultrasound images also showed no lens present in my injured eye. Omni eye services even tried to charge me $1600 for laser removal of the cloudy lens, saying laser is not covered by the insurance. But in fact, my lens was already removed by Dr. Wisotsky. When I mentioned about seeing other cataract surgeons, Dr. Wisotsky discouraged me from seeing them, and said ONLY his colleague Dr. Grayson could do my surgery. Ironically, I never met Dr. Grayson during my entire time at Omni. But my "cataract" surgery date was scheduled. Thank God I got a second opinion before that. Dr. Wisotsky fudged my medical records to fit his own version of stories, and to cover up his wrongdoings. The worst physician and eye services (Omni) I have ever seen in my life!
