I had the pleasure of meeting them in the summer of 2010. I was getting married in Oahu, but the trip took a turn for the worst as a rare disease made my retinas detach and made hearing difficult. I went to the Retina Center on an emergency basis as I could barely see hand motions. Dr. Atebara's experience and timely response to my symptoms saved me from being permanently blind.
