I walked into Dr Kassam’s clinic with eyes that felt like sandpaper and left feeling like I’d just bathed them in glacier water. The man’s got wizard hands and a vibe that makes you trust him instantly. He explained everything like he was narrating a nature documentary—calm, clear, and oddly fascinating. My retinas are grateful.
