Doctor Miss Abeysiri is very nice, caring and looks after her patients well. Especially when I saw her for the first time to explain my eye problems, she checked and provided lots of advice and is very professional. I appreciated her time to follow up my ongoing problems even during the weekend without an appointment. If you do not know which ophthalmologist to choose then I suggest you to try Doctor Miss Abeysiri.
