All things excellent! Thank you!

Always great service and care at the eye institute.

I always look forward to my visit.

Everyone at both offices provided exceptional care, especially Cesar who took great care of me!

Dr. Z is very professional, intelligent , patient , with fantastic medical acumen .she listen carefully and does. Very careful exam and discusses all the possibilities

Everything was good

I am still recovering from my PRK procedure (which at this point is 2 weeks), but I can already see so much better compared to my vision before. For reference, I had -8 in both my left and right eye. Dr. Assil and the team took/have been very communicative and helpful before and after the procedure. I was worried with the PRK recovery process since that was all I was qualified for, but the experience has been a lot better than I thought it would be. I had little to no dry eye experience, some pain on the first two days but the painkillers helped and afterwards no pain, and no sand paper like feeling that I saw some people had on reddit from their PRK experience (not with this office but from their PRK in general). You just have to follow the eye drop schedule (which they ensure you know or keep up with), taking supplements, and getting rest afterwards. Also just to talk further about my experience, my bandage contact accidentally came out of my left eye after office hours on the first day, but I was able to call and get an on call doctor to put the a new bandage contact in my left eye within an hour of it coming out. I really appreciated the care when that happened and especially it was painful without it in for that hour haha. I highly recommend proceeding with this office for PRK since that’s the procedure I had done.

I just appreciate the value of care and being able to see again. My vision was a -8 in both eyes, but as I’m healing from my PRK procedure it gets better and better every day.

I always have a great experience.

Very thorough and efficient.

My second visit to the clinic improved drastically. Instead of waiting an hour to see Dr.Harris, I got in almost immediately & was in and out in about 20 minutes. Dr.Harris is knowledgeable, supportive & kind.

I have recommended Dr. Gaur to numerous clients and friends. She is knowledgeable, innovative, an active listener, and kind.

Dr Assil was very professional and thorough with my eye care. He answered all my questions and made me fee very comfortable.

Always appreciate the care and support given by doctor's and staff at the Santa Monica practice!

The staff at the front desk are always kind and James has always been attentive since the first time I ever scheduled. Dr. Assil is a busy man and sometimes you can feel that energy. I like consistent service and have met with Dr. Assil a few times over the years. I hope that he will continue to have consistent service for each patient including myself each time. Thank you!
