“Hello Dr Hurvitz! I’m not sure if you will remember me. Back in 2007 you broke the news to me that the 3 different drops I was using to control my glaucoma prevented me from having a healthy pregnancy. We decided that “treb” surgery would be my best option. The outcome was unpredictable and scary due to my large vascular birthmark that encompasses my eye. The surgery happened in August followed by 2 months of a dilated eye and the best after-care I could ever hope for. My pressure was finally controlled without meds, and by December I was pregnant with my son! Fast forward 11 years(!!!), 3 very healthy children later, and to me walking out of my routine eye exam with perfect pressure holding at 14, no sign of cataract, and a “wonderfully functioning bleb”. Dr. Hurvitz, I was able to start a family and save my vision because of you and your amazing staff. I just wanted you to know that my family is forever grateful for you. I cannot thank you enough for your compassion, skill, professionalism, and for helping my dreams come true. ❤️ “
