We are extremely fortunate to have Dr Azman in the Baltimore area!

I have been a patient of Azman Eye Care Specialists, Dr Irwin Azman, for approximately 4 years. My first hint that this organization puts the customer’s needs first is when they advised me that I was not a candidate for laser correction. At that time, the most thorough exam I had ever had was administered, and I was prescribed glasses. I have been more satisfied with both the prescription and glasses, then any other time in my bifocal adult life.

I had tried contacts in the past, found my eyes to be red, watery, and itchy, and the optometrist blamed menopause as the culprit. No solution was ever suggested. I went back to glasses. Because of my prescription, I was constantly taking glasses on and off and was never really comfortable. Dr.Irwin Azman advised that first we need to correct the dry eye issue, then find the appropriate lenses. After everything was said and done, I was fitted with the most comfortable lenses, and have no dry eye problems whatsoever!

The professionalism and care exhibited by both Dr Irwin Azman and Dr Thomas Azman are evident in the time they spent with me, the efforts to find the right solution for me. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of excellent eye care, service, and compassion. We are extremely fortunate to have Dr Azmans in the Baltimore area!

Dry Eye Treatment: My only regret is that it took me so long to find Dr Thomas Azman’s office…

During a recent visit to Azman Eye Care for a routine eye check up, I was diagnosis with having “dry eye”. I have to admit that I was a little skeptical about this because I have always been diligent about getting regular eye checkups and thought my blurred vision and frequent eye pain was due to my advancing age and the medications I was taking. Up to this point no one had mention neither this condition (dry eye) nor a treatment. However, after several days of treatment, I was pleasantly surprised to find that not only my vision improved but also the paint I had previously experienced had disappeared. My experiences were not only positive but also unexpected. This is due to several factors. First, my dry eye treatment from Dr. Thomas Azman and the other members of his office were handled with expertise and professionalism. I know my knowledge about “dry eye‘ has greatly improved. Next, I felt genuine concern for my well being. I never had to wonder how the treatment would be carried out because they were fully explained. Also, I left each visit with the feeling that I was important and that improving my condition was the ultimate aim.

As I speak to other family members, friends and colleagues about my condition and treatment, I have discovered that “dry eye’ is quite common but often misdiagnosis. As a result of my experiences, I feel very comfortable in not only sharing these positive experiences but also letting them know about Dr Thomas Azman and his office.

In closing, my only regret is that it took me so long to find Dr Thomas Azman’s office as I truly feel my eyes have never felt better.

To that I want to thank Dr Thomas Azman and all the members of his office.

After 7 years I now have comfortable contact lenses!

To the Azman Eye Care Specialists:
It has been quite a few months since I have been wearing my lenses comfortably. I never thought I would be able to. After my 3 visits to the Azman Eye Care Specialists this all changed.
Prior to my first appointment in July 2003, I had been wearing lenses uncomfortably for seven years. I always felt the edge of the lenses, very strongly on my right eye and slightly on my left eye and my eyes were constantly dry. This all worsened when I tried to focus on anything, such as a blackboard, and since I was a student, this was very problematic. I wanted to wear lenses, and forced myself to wear them, since I found glasses bothersome.

Over the seven years, I constantly returned to my eye doctor, insisting that something was not right, lenses were supposed to fit comfortably on the eye. Most of the time, he switched my lenses to another kind out on the market, but none I found comfortable. After four or five years, I was told that there are no other kind of lenses for me, and if I do not want to wear the lenses the way they are, then I just might have to wear glasses. This upset me greatly. I knew something was not right, but the doctor did not seem to believe me. I began to wear my lenses infrequently, and wore my glasses most of the time.

In February 2003, I had as a guest at my home who was one of your wonderful Optometric Assistants. It was she who introduced me to the Azman Eye Care Specialists. She mentioned that many difficult cases came to your office and were helped. Just a few days later I received a call at home from Dr. Irwin Azman.  Dr. Azman listened carefully as I spoke and told me what he thought were the problems and some of the solutions. He suggested that I come down to the Azman Eye Care Center.

After a few months of thinking it over, I finally came to the Azman Eye Care Center. In just three appointments (that were all made to accommodate my schedule since I was coming from out of state) my problem was diagnosed and the solutions were found by Dr. Irwin Azman. Dr. Azman mentioned that I was one of his most difficult and challenging cases, and now I am wearing lenses comfortably. At the Azman Eye Care Center, I was treated so much better than I was ever treated at an eye care center before. Thanks to the professional service, along with the extremely patient specialists, including Dr. Thomas Azman, especially Dr. Irwin Azman, who answered all my questions, believed me, helped me, and solved my problem, I feel confident that I can refer friends and family to trust their vision care in your office.

Once again, thank you for enabling me to continue to wear lenses comfortably.

– New Comfortable Contact Lenses

I had worn contact lenses prior to coming to Dr Thomas Azman. It was a disaster.

I want to express my appreciation for helping me. I came to Azman Eye Care with a problem that I could not identify. However, I did recognize that my eyes were chronically tired and red, and I had to where my glasses all of the time. Today, I am experiencing a high level of comfort and I feel as if my eyesight has improved. When I arrived for my first appointment, Joanne met with me to acquaint me with your practice and to administer preliminary tests. She was very informative and – reassuring. Next, I met with Dr Thomas Azman and again I was reassured that it would be possible to correct the difficulties I was experiencing. Dr Thomas Azman carefully and clearly explained the results of the preliminary evaluation. I had worn contact lenses prior to coming to Dr Thomas Azman. It was a disaster. I was prescribed a more generic lens and along with the dry eye problem, the lenses were never really correct. I was not able to read with the lenses and my distance vision was poor as well. Eventually I gave up, as these lenses were apparently the only option available to me. My experience at the Azman Dry Eye center was completely different. Dr. Azman devised a plan of attack. Which eventually led to success with contact lenses. Other eye centers did not address any specific problems; they only evaluated my eyesight and wrote prescriptions for glasses or generic contact lenses. I also want to say that the level of caring that is shown to patients from the front desk to the doctor himself, is above any I have experienced elsewhere. It is a pleasure to come to the office. I will continue to recommend the practice and Dr. Azman to my friends and family.

Thank you for all your help!

True Family Eye Care!

Recently, my daughter and I went to Dr. Thomas Azman for our eye exams. I was so impressed by the eye care we received. I thought we were there only to have a routine eye exam. Dr. Thomas Azman spent quite a bit of time with the both us. He performed a number of tests and over the next several months treated us for dry eyes. I could not believe the difference in the way my eyes felt. My daughter had been experiencing headaches, which have disappeared since the treatments. I have gone regularly for eye exams and only received the routine eye exam and the glaucoma test, but Dr. Azman was so thorough and explained each test and the purpose of the test. It also explained to us that his practice was about the wellness of the eye. I have since referred my husband to Dr. Thomas Azman. He has been going for treatments for approximately 3 months. His eyes were constantly red and he always complained that his eyes hurt. Since being treated by Dr. Thomas Azman, his eyes have improved greatly. You can actually see the whites of his eyes! I am very thankful for the time Dr. Azman has spent with my daughter, my husband and myself. He is very professional and also has a very pleasant personality. I will return to Dr. Thomas Azman for all my future eye exams and also recommend him to friends and family members.

The best thing that has ever happened to me was the referral to your office

I wanted to take the time to express to you how truly happy I am with Dr Thomas Azman and his office. The individual care and attention that is given to you makes the whole experience enjoyable. I have been one to have a fear of touching or anyone touching near my eyes. Since your care with my dry eye syndrome, my whole attitude has changed. The tear duct implants have made an incredible difference in my sight. Prior to this my eyes always seemed itchy and tired, not any more! I wish my previous eye care professional had taken the time to diagnose and correct. The best thing that has ever happened to me was the referral to your office. I have and I will continue to refer you to as many people as I can. Thank you for all of your support and genuine care. I look forward to my next appointment!

For years, I have unhappily been wearing glasses and contact lenses to correct my vision.

I am writing this letter on behalf of The Azman Eye Cre Center and the unbelievable care I have received from Dr. Irwin Azman and his entire staff. For years, I have unhappily been wearing glasses and contact lenses to correct my vision. Over the past few years, I have continuously had to go to my optometrist for new prescriptions because my eyes seemed to always change constantly. I always complained to my doctor that my eyes were very dry and tired. I was often unable to wear my contacts for extended periods of time without taking them out to give my eyes a break from my contacts. I was always tired when I had my contacts in my eyes and I knew that something was not right.

A few months ago, I called my ophthalmologist for a referral to a new Optometrist and he gave me the name of Dr. Azman. I made an appointment in hopes of getting a new prescription for a new pair of contacts. After about an hour of testing in the office, Dr. Azman informed me that my main problem was not that I needed a stronger prescription for glasses/contacts, but that my corneas were extremely irritated and that I had dry eyes. As a result of Dr. Azman’s treatment, I did not need a new prescription and my right eye sees 20/20. I now only need a small prescription for night driving in my left eye.

I have been so happy with the treatment and care that I have been receiving from both Dr. Irwin and Dr. Thomas Azman and I would definitely refer my friends and family to the Azman Eye Care Center. In fact, I have a few friends who are thinking about giving them a call for a consult. In addition, my mother is planning on making an appointment because of my happiness. I am amazed at the difference in both my eyesight and my attitude. I am not tired like I used to be before my eyes were cleared up and I love that I am not dependent on contacts and glasses to see. I would definitely recommend these doctors to anyone who thinks they may be suffering from dry eyes because the treatment was quick, easy, and painless.

Their dedication to my eyesight has definitely changed my life for the better.

Thank you so much Dr. Azman!

Great patient care

I just wanted to thank Dr Irwin Azman and Dr Thomas Azman, and your associates for the service you have been giving my husband, granddaughter, and myself over the years. As you know I was going to Wilmer Eye Clinic for over four years before I came to Azman Eye Care for services. At Wilmer, I was treated as a number and not a person. At your office you and the other associates have shown that we are people and that you care a great deal about your patients.

There are not too many doctors who will call you to check to see if everything is okay. When my granddaughter was there to see Dr. Irwin Azman about her eyes, he took time out of his weekend to call Sunday to see if she was doing okay. When I called about my eyes bothering me, Dr Irwin Azman did not hesitate to call me at my home and ask that I come in right away. Dr Irwin Azman has worked with me in trying to make my “dry eyes” better and you have done more for me in the past year than Wilmer did for over four years.

I cannot say enough of how pleased myself and the family is with Dr Irwin Azman services. I have talked to family and friends and told them how great your services are and have recommended them to see you.

Again, thank you for the wonderful care you put into your work.
