Happy Birthday Dr. Bekendam! We’re incredibly thankful for his leadership and expertise here at Pacific Eye Institute!

Did you know that nearly 75% of all vision loss can be prevented or treated with early detection? Many eye conditions, like glaucoma or diabetic retinopathy, start without noticeable symptoms. A comprehensive eye exam does more than check your vision; it evaluates your overall eye health, catching issues before they threaten your sight.
