I have macular degeneration (wet) in both eyes. Dr Lalezary has been treating me for the last several years at the Westlake Village Darin Eye Center. Because of the excellent care he has given me, my condition is stable, or as he likes to call it "under maintenance". At every visit, he carefully explains the status of my condition. I'm impressed with his medical knowledge. I would strongly recommend Dr. Lalezary for anyone who needs a retina specialist.

I went to the doctor for a second opinion after being treated by a local doctor for the last 5 years. I learned more about my condition in one visit with Dr. Lalezary than I had with my previous retina specialist. He answered all my questions and helped me understand why my eye did not see well and how I could protect my other eye from a the same problem.

Upon an emergency referral to Dr. Lalezary, he saw me the same day in the Palm Desert office, I was in surgery within three days and am so grateful that my Dr. directed me to him and his office where I was treated by all especially Dr.Lalezary with such respect, understanding and exceptional care. I would recommend him highly to anyone needing retina care, etc. All my follow-up appts with him have resulted in the same care, concern & compassion as the first day I met him.

I've been seeing Dr. Lalezary now for sometime and he really is a great doctor. I saw another Dr. Of the same kind before I found Lalezary and that Dr. Wasn't as good, with that Dr my treatment hurt and and Lalezery I never hurt. I hope that new patients come to Lalezary find him as wonderful as I do. He is a true caring doctor and does the best treatment for you. I trust this doctor. Way to go Doctor Lalezary. Thank you.

Dr. Lalezary is an exceptional eye specialist with the best possible communication skills and ability to explain complex medical issues in terms that makes crucial information accessible to patients lacking scientific expertise. He is a great diagnostician and surgeon. Cannot recommend him highly enough. Simple the best.

Dr. Lalezary is exceptionally competent and caring. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. A staff member that truly stands out is Ken who does all the photography. He is highly professional; courteous, quick, and makes patients feel comfortable while he works.
