Eye infections, caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites, can lead to discomfort, redness, discharge, and vision disturbances. Optometrists, as primary eye care providers, play a crucial role in diagnosing, managing, and treating a variety of eye conditions,...

I had terrible dry eye symptoms for years. I was finally able to find relief with the experts at Eye Theory. Don’t think twice to Achilles here if you are also suffering from dry eye symptoms and have been told be other providers that there are no other options.

My experience was exceptional! Dr K really is thoughtful giving medical advice. You’re not just a number here! He will test multiple times during an evaluation to confirm his observations. I felt listened to and validated. I highly recommend checking this place out!

At the midtown location, I initially that the staff wanted to help, but it was all about money, I have diabetes yet they didn't want to address that issue, while still charging me over $1000 out of pocket. Before going there check out other alternatives then them, you'll save yourself a lot money and heartache.

My mom experienced a sudden vision issue about a day ago, and we were so relieved that Eye Theory (West University) was open on the weekend. Sahar was incredibly accommodating and fit us in for a 2:30 PM appointment on the same day.

Dr. Karbaschi was outstanding—attentive, patient, and very thorough in conducting all the necessary exams. He carefully reviewed my mom’s medical history and took the time to answer every question with compassion and clarity.

We especially appreciated how welcoming and understanding the clinic was, which made a huge difference for my parents, non-native English speakers. I highly recommend Eye Theory (west university), especially for anyone feeling anxious or dealing with language barriers. Truly a top-notch experience!

I came here because of the good reviews, while the Dr. Tsao is good and attentive during the office visit. The staff as a whole generally take their time in taking care of other things after you leave the office. They sent my rx to the pharmacy at the end of the day even though I had symptoms and was seen in the morning, they also provided my copay receipt after a week. Most importantly I was suppose to be referred to a eye specialist from here and never heard back, after calling several times to the office and asking for the specialist contact info myself I found out that the referral was never sent in the past 2 weeks.
