I had a dry eye problem and looked like I was crying all day every day. Dr. Gandhi did a fancy new procedure on both of my eyes that was hardly even uncomfortable. My eyes look normal again and they feel so much more comfortable.

Dr. Gandhi introduced a new technology to us that has been quite effective for my teen son. It’s a contact lens that he wears when he sleeps that reshapes his cornea so that when he wakes and takes it out, his vision is clear without the need for any lenses or eye glasses.
"David Y.

Dr. Gandhi was incredibly patient throughout the entire process and provided one-on-one attention that I have never experienced in another eye doctor’s office. He is excellent at explaining things clearly, answering questions, and making sure you feel comfortable with each step.

Dr. Gandhi himself is incredibly knowledgeable and has a fantastic way of explaining medical terms in a way that’s easy to understand.

Dr. Gandhi’s office is excellent. An added perk was free parking underneath the building (really hard to find in Santa Monica). Highly recommend to anyone looking for a new optometrist on the west side!
