Here we see Dr. González examining a patient's eyes. It is very important that the health condition of the eye be known as well as the prescription required to improve vision. Many older people experience problems with their cornea, retina, cataracts, glaucoma and with macular degeneration. Only a trained opthamologist can determine these conditions and perform adequate treatment.

A very professionally minded surgeon, Dr. González has recently become the President of the Opthamology Association of Reynosa. Here is a picture of him on the day he was installed in January of 2004.

Dr. González conducts LASIK procedure in the surgical clinic ni Matamoros. This machine is the Bausch & Lomb Tecnolas 217, and is the most modern in the area, even when including the US side of the border.

He has been performing LASIK procedures for over five years and has had great success in improving the vision of his clients from both sides of the border.
