KoharaEye

My kid had terrible strabismus. She would see everything double, and she wore glasses with prisms to correct the problem, but they were so uncomfortable that she would barely wear them. At first, I was hesitant about surgery, especially because it required general anesthesia. Dr. Kohara explained the procedure clearly, she was very transparent, and her confidence and knowledge made me feel we would be in very good hands, so we decided to move forward. The whole experience couldn't have been better. Her bedside manner is excellent, and she made my child feel listened to, safe, and cared for every step of the way, which really reassured her that everything was going to be ok. Seven weeks after the surgery, my child's double vision was completely gone. At our last follow-up visit, Dr. Kohara said everything looked perfect, and that we did not need to come back. Not having double-vision has been truly life-changing for my child, and our experience with Dr Kohara has been outstanding. Thank you, Dr. Kohara. We could not be happier!

Dr. Kohara is one of the finest physicians that I have ever had. In addition to being an incredibly skilled surgeon, she is a lovely person who cares deeply about her patients and takes extra time to get to know each one of us. She has my highest recommendation and deepest thanks.

I am so pleased with the team at KoharaEye. Their scheduling was so much better than the many other eye places we tried (some never even called me back after I left multiple messages). We were always able to get an appointment and the team was so kind and knowledgeable. From dealing with the administrative elements (appointment scheduling and billing) to the Dr. herself - everything was easy and we felt well taken care of. KoharaEye is so much better than so many other places - I am so happy we found them and so grateful for the work that they do.

The best pediatric ophthalmologist there is! I started coming here when my kids were babies. She always has flexibility in scheduling appointments, she is very considerate and calm with babies and toddlers, she has lots of games in the room that help toddlers stay focused. She diagnosed my 2 year old daughter with vision problems and was able to fit glasses on her face, which was very complicated for us. She also has a good selection of glasses for toddlers. Always a good experience coming here and the staff is also very polite and pleasant.

We've been with Kohara Eye for a little over three years now and have been so happy with Dr. Kohara and her staff. Everything from routine eye exams, glasses, contact fittings have all been such a smooth experience for our child. We also appreciate that all costs and coverage are clearly communicated upfront so there is no misunderstanding, and staff has been so helpful providing requested forms. Super grateful their office is close to us in Culver City as well. Thank you!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Kohara and her staff. As a first time mother, I was very worried (and sad!) when I found that my 3yr old son may have some struggles with his vision. Dr. Kohara is very knowledgeable, explained everything in detail (with informational email follow ups), very patient and warm with my son during the eye exams and recommended exactly what my son needed to not only help my son see better but also to improve his vision and correct issues early in childhood. Dr. Kohara made me feel at ease, reassuring me in a manner that really helped my mama heart. It's the little things that go a long way. In addition, the office is very clean, Dr. Kohara is always punctual, I've never had to wait more than a few minutes, front desk staff are very straightforward with billing and insurance (no surprise bills). And last but not least, my son actually enjoys our visits, remembers them fondly and always leaves with a toy or a treat and a smile. Thank you, Dr. Kohara!

I had a great experience with Dr. Kohara as my eye surgeon! I am very happy with the ending results of my surgery. I felt like Dr. Kohara and her team took great care of me from start to finish and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an ophthalmologist.

We've been with Dr. Kohara for almost four years and we can say she is an amazing pediatric ophthalmologist! She is amazing we kids and a great listener. I've referred many friends to her and they all loved her!
