My family have been patients at American Eye Institute for many years. Dr. Barak Maguen is our outstanding Ophthalmologist in this practice. WIth state-of-the-art procedures and medication, he's kept my (potentially problematic) optic nerves miraculously healthy. Most recently he performed a flawless cataract surgery, during which he implanted Symfony lenses--and restored my vision to 20/20. It was literally life-changing for me!

I just showed up for my appointment and the office insisted that I sign an arbitration agreement to be seen, meaning that the patient waives any right to hold the doctor accountable in court if the doctor causes injury or is negligent. The laws in California already heavily favor doctors, and the Medical Board of California offers almost no recourse for patients, so requiring an arbitration agreement on top of that seems like the physicians at AEI cannot guarantee safety and professionalism.

This is a very friendly office that doesn’t try to upsell you anything. Everyone who’s helped me here has been kind and trustworthy. Just because an office isn’t in Sunset boulevard it doesn’t mean it’s better..:
