Bay Ridge
Snip, snip hooray for the eye guys. Dr. Thomas Aiello and Dr. Adam Pass have joined forces, merged their practices, and opened up Specialized Eye Care with a “spec”-tacular ribbon cutting on Sept. 10. Councilman Vincent Gentile (D–Bay Ridge), optician Harry Cadiz, and staff were on hand to help celebrate.
The dynamic duo of docs — both board-certified ophthalmologists — specialize in advanced cataract surgery and the diagnosis of eye diseases, added an optician to their practice and now offer a wider range of services.
From simple eye exams to complex surgeries, you can also add getting your specs and lenses to the list — thanks to Harry in the on-site eyewear boutique.
Longtime customer Johnny Philips told standing O, “I went to the new place. They were all so nice. Everyone was great — the staff was friendly and helpful, and Harry was great in helping me pick out the latest glasses.”
He added, “I’m so glad that I can get all my eye needs in one place now.”
Both doctors treat patients of all ages and keep the office open six days a week. Emergencies are accepted and appointments can easily be made by the helpful staff.
