CYNTHIA J. MACKAY, M. D., is a board-certified ophthalmologist, with comprehensive training in all aspects of eye care, and with special expertise in diseases of the retina and eye laser surgery.

Welcome.

I retired from active ophthalmology practice in August 2018. I practiced ophthalmology for over 40 years.

I continue to do anti LASIK advocacy and media appearances. I provide expert witness consultation services for malpractice cases related to Lasik injuries and damage. After I have read the material facts of case, I will prepare a report and provide expert testimony regarding whether reasonable and ordinary care was maintained. For a list of my fees, please contact my office manager, Ro Silva, at 212-772-6050

Here on my website you will find my CV, testimonials from patients, chapters from my upcoming book, “Read This Book and Save Your Sight”, and links to appearances I have made.

Please feel free to contact me for further information: Via Email: DrMacKay@protonmail.com Via Phone: 212-772-6050.
I look forward to hearing and working with you.

Best Wishes,

Cynthia J MacKay MD
