The Eye Guy with the Bow Tie
Dr. Rafael Trespalacios
The first surgeon in Central Florida to perform Laser-Enabled Corneal Transplant

“Wonderful experience”
“I had a wonderful experience. I was a little nervous about having my surgery, but Dr. Tres and the nurses put those fears to rest. I had a very little wait time in the waiting room and surgery was done in no time at all. I highly recommend TRES VISION Group. I CAN SEE, I CAN SEE! Thank you much Dr. Tres and the Nurses and Staff for making my surgery a success.”
