IndividualEyes Dry Eye Center

Dr. Hoppert is best in class for patient attentiveness and getting results. She spent a lot of time educating me about my dry eyes and provided the “why” for the regimen that she proposed, which was essential because it requires time, commitment, and consistency to get results and it can be tedious - but the “why” kept me going. Her many, many tests revealed corneal nerve damage from my eyes not sealing completely while I sleep at night, and thus my tear layer dried out and the nerves were affected likely over decades. There is also a lipid layer that is naturally secreted (meibomian glands) and mine were blocked and congested, so my tear layer wasn’t being protected by this important lipid layer - causing the tears to evaporate. I’ve been in treatment for 8 months and my corneal nerves are nearly healed and the glands are secreting the lipid layer more effectively! I’ve gone from acute onset redness and inflammation of my eyes every 2-3 months, worsened by wind and of course our dry desert air. I have not had a flair up for 7 months. A regular eye doctor office will not go to these lengths (I tried to get help there). Dr Hoppert is bright, cares deeply about getting results, and patiently partners to be sure the patient can confidently join with her and commit to get the results. She’s literally one of the best doctors I’ve ever had.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Dr. Hoppert! I have never seen a Doctor who took as much time with me, to really understand what was going on with me. I was blown away by her knowledge of dry eye disease, addressing root causes/issues and not just symptoms. I would recommend her to anyone experiencing dry eye disease.

I had gone to see Dr. Hoppert two days ago to consult about my dry eye condition. I had gone with my physician wife for the consult so I could grasp the details of the condition and treatment plans. What we experienced there at the clinic can be best described as a Master Class in diagnosis and treatment. She was professional, compassionate, courteous and very detail oriented. She communicated clearly and concisely and explained the conditions affecting my eyes and the treatment plan in a lucid manner. She is definitely the very best in her class and someone who will go on to make a name for herself in this field. Thank you Dr. Hoppert, we both appreciate the care you provided.

I never had so detailed and focus assessment as what Dr Hoppert did for my dry eyes problem.She makes sure patient is getting high quality standards of care and her approach is very holistic. I definitely recommend her expertise on treating dry eyes. Plus shes working with efficient and goal oriented professionals in the clinic. Kudos to all - Ms Rich, Ms Anna And Ms Kath. Thank you Dr Hoppert.

I can’t say enough positive things to convey the gratitude I feel for Dr. Hoppert. I have several chronic health conditions for which I see different specialist for and I have never experienced the level of care from any other doctor than I am experiencing from Dr. Hoppert. I am beyond grateful to her for how much she cares about not just treating my dry eye symptoms but about healing the root causes. I appreciate his thorough she is, how she explains everything to me in a way that I really understand, the treatment options she is using, the close follow ups, and how we are able to see that my eyes are in fact responding and healing. The word that most comes to my mind is….grateful! Truly grateful! Thank you Dr. Hoppert!
