Founded more than 47 years ago, it's no wonder that we are the leading ophthalmic institute in the region, with well-deserved national and international acclaim. Since then, Tijuana Eye Center has treated more than 200,000 patients — many from the US — and performed over 100,000 surgeries.

A medical appointment consists of a full optometric and ophthalmologic exam. Its purpose is to evaluate the health, detect any diseases and detect any visual defects and propose treatment. It is important to have regular eye exams because there are certain eye diseases such as glaucoma or diabetic retinopathy that can cause permanent and irreversible damage. Early detection is important to maintain healthy eyes.
