Acanthamoeba Infections Now that October is here, we thought it would be fun for something spooky—the “eye eating parasite” better known to the medical world as the Acanthamoeba. Acanthamoebas are microscopic parasites that live in water and soil and can be found...

The only place I’ve ever found to give me relief for my extremely dry eyes. Very fast diagnosis and testing followed by treatment. Greatly appreciated.

My experience on my first visit with Dr Karbaschi was awesome! Dr. K and Sahar are so great to work with. They treat you like family there, and I appreciate their professionalism and expertise. They have high quality frames and a lot of options to choose from. I highly recommend their services. They have my business from now on. Thank you!

I found Eye Theory in Midtown when my daughter needed an eye exam. Dr. Tsao is kid friendly, which is great because we had a bad experience the first time she went to an eye doctor. They have state of the art technology, and didn't push … More

Dear Dr. Amir and your esteemed colleague, I wanted to sincerely thank both of you for the precise diagnosis of my eye condition, as well as for the thorough examinations and detailed imaging you performed. I greatly appreciate the way you informed me about my condition without causing any shock, and the clarity with which you explained everything. Your professionalism and attentiveness have brought me a great sense of reassurance, and I feel fortunate to be under the care of such skilled and compassionate doctors. Thank you once again for your excellent care and support. Best regards, Babak Karimi

I recently found myself in a bind when I lost my scleral lens removal plunger while I was out of town in Houston for the weekend. After calling around to several optometry offices without any luck, I reached out to Eye Theory. They were incredibly kind and told me to come pick one up, free of charge. This level of customer service, especially for someone who wasn’t even their patient, speaks volumes. If they treat a non-patient with such care, I can only imagine how well they treat their actual patients. Highly recommend Eye Theory for their outstanding service and kindness!
