Pacific Vision Institute

Having had both eyes operated on for cataracts by Dr. Tham, there’s no one else I would more highly recommend. She was exceptional in her analysis of my eyes, was a straight shooter when it came to her recommendations, and really seemed to take a sincere interest personally in making sure the outcome was up to my expectations. And she was very careful to mitigate my expectations with an open and honest opinion of the potential outcome prior to doing the surgeries. I had been to two ophthalmologists prior. I did not get a confidence level from them that I got from Dr. Tham. 6 stars if I could!

Once again, my visit with Dr Tham was conducted in a professional and courteous manner. Her staff welcomed me to the office and ensured that my COVID status was checked, and initial eye checks were done in an efficient manner. There was a small wait time after them while I waited for Dr Tham, but it was not excessive and acceptable. Dr Tham reviewed my current conditions with me, examined my eyes and we discussed my ongoing treatment plan. I value Dr Tham as a physician and continue to receive excellent care from her. I have been seeing her for almost a year, and have seen a lot of improvement while under her care.

My experience with Dr. Tham started with a referral from an optometrist. I was told that I had cataracts and needed to have surgery to remove them and correct my eyesight. New lens for my eyes were required to correct my vision. My visit to Dr. Tham’s office was very welcoming. The staff very nice and helpful. Meeting Dr. Tham was a great experience. She was very professional and nice explaining in terms that I could understand what was happening to my eyes and what was needed to correct them. The place of surgery was clean with helpful people. Dr.Tham explained what was happening at each stage of the surgery. When I fully recovered I could not believe how great my eyesight was. I saw things that I could not see before and realized what I had missed out on. Thanks to Dr. Tham I can still see great after 5 years both near and far. Dr. Tham is a great doctor and a caring person. Dr. Tham also gives of her personal time to help others who are struggling and in need of eye care . Thank you Dr. Tham

Upon my first visit and scare that brought me to see Dr. Tham. The staff was very warmly, Dr. Tham was more than the same. She was always honest and gave knowledge to what my warranted visit was. I didn’t understand, but she explained, every visit. As time past, and me doing exactly what she suggested. I’m now on less medication, and I appreciate her and her team for making EVERY visit welcoming and helpful with any questions I needed answered. Hands down.. the best eye specialist/surgeon I’ve experienced!! Thank you. From my heart ♥️ Tikesha 😊
