  • Going to Bascom-Palmer

  • Im going to Miami to visit the Bascom-Palmer Eye Institute this Friday for an appointment with their RP specialist. Has anyone else gone there for an appointment and can tell me what to expect? I'm excited about possibly seeing what new age treatments are available and if there is anything they are willing to try on me. I have one eye that is correctable to 20/100 (so not really all that good). So im willing to experiment. Thanks.

  • Hi Janet,

    I was diagnosis at Bascom and Palmer by Dr. Lam around 4-years ago at age 38. I was happy to get a diagnosis but that was about all I received. Talking to others with RP will probably be more insightful on what to expect and the available resources. This website is a great start.

    If you want to speak directly email me at amnegron@hotmail.com. I live in Pembroke Pines which is west of Ft. Lauderdale.
