I'm sorry to hear of the passing of Dr. Eichler. I worked for him for 10 years. He helped improve my skills as a technician. He also had the time to explain eye diseases so we could always learn. I truly loved working at the Eye Institute of Essex and will remember him fondly. My deepest sympathies to Carol, Joel, Robin and family.

Dr Eichler was my Eye Doctor many years. He did my 2 Cataract
surgeries He was a nice man and a good person. I will miss him.
