Welcome!

Hello and thank you for taking the time to visit my website. I’m Dr. Ebbie Soroudi, founder, and medical director of the Soroudi Advanced Lasik & Eye Centers. In this site, I’ve tried to make it easy (and fun) for you to learn a great deal about what could be affecting your eyes, and what we can do to help you. I promise you that being here is the first step toward one of the best decisions you’ve made in your life.

I’m astutely aware that your eyes are your most precious possessions, and choosing a surgeon to care for them requires a great deal of trust in his/her skills, technology, experience, training, and track record.

This is precisely why I’ve put together the absolute best in every aspect of diagnostic and surgical technology, personnel, and tools in either one of my centers to get you the best results humanly possible. I implore you to do your own research, you will not find better technology anywhere...

So if you’re suffering from poor vision, if you’re just sick and tired of the burden of having to wear glasses or contact lenses every day, or if you’re suffering from droopy eyelids/bags under your eyes, our entire team is at your service, and we promise to care for your eyes as if they were our own!

Looking forward to meeting you in person soon.

Sincerely, Dr. Ebbie Soroudi Diplomat of The American Board of Ophthamology

LASIK is simply the most amazing surgical procedure ever devised! Utilizing the newest Ziemer Femtosecond and Alcon Alegretto Lasers, Dr. Soroudi can treat up to -10 diopters of near-sightedness, +6 diopters of far-sightedness, and up to 7 diopters of astigmatism.

Distance Vision Correction

Many people suffer from having to wear very high prescription glasses or contacts and do not qualify for LASIK. ICL's are a FANTASTIC option for people with high prescriptions and thin corneas who would never qualify for laser vision correction, and an ideal alternative for those with severe dry eyes.

Near Vision Correction

People over 50, even those who see distances well, start requiring reading glasses. Dr. Soroudi specializes in treating this condition with trifocal lenses that help you see far, near, and at intermediate distances with EACH EYE, without ever having to wear glasses again.

Revision Vision Correction

Many people have undergone some kind of vision corrective procedure (LASIK/RK/PRK, etc) years ago, and are now having to wear glasses again. Dr. Soroudi is an expert in Revisional Surgery in those with "thin & irregular corneas" and those who have had prior complications.

Meet Dr. Soroudi Dr. A. Ebbie Soroudi, MD, MS

Clinical Instructor of Ophthalmology: UCLA Stein Eye Institute Member: World College of Refractive Surgery, American Academy of Ophthalmology, American Society of Cataract & Refractive Surgery, International Society of Refractive Surgery, and the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery

Dr. Soroudi is an internationally recognized, board-certified, subspecialty-trained Ophthalmologist who specializes in all aspects of vision corrective surgery, ophthalmic surgery, as well as eyelid plastic surgery. Having personally performed more than 30,000 successful LASIK procedures, another 30,000 successful Cataract/Lens Exchange procedures, 3000 Pterygium/Conjunctival Procedures, 5000 Pterygium/Conjunctival Surgeries, 500 Keratoconus Procedures (including Corneal Transplants), and over 5000 eyelid procedures (among other laser surgeries for Diabetics & Glaucoma), Dr. Soroudi is recognized as one of the most experienced, meticulous, and highly respected experts in his fields of specialty.

Dr. Soroudi completed his undergraduate studies in Biomedical Engineering and graduated near the top of his class with magna cum laude honors from USC, which is considered one of the most prestigious engineering programs in the world. Here, he received the coveted Howard Hughes Award for his research in gene therapy.

He obtained his Master of Science Degree in Physiological Science from UCLA in only one year (two-year program) and published his thesis on his research studying the utility of Radiofrequency technology to remove tumors in the human orbit at the Oculoplastic Division of the Stein Eye Institute.

Dr. Soroudi went on to the prestigious University of California, Irvine School of Medicine to obtain his Medical Degree. Here, he was awarded a fellowship by the U.S. Government to conduct research in ocular gene therapy at the world-famous National Eye Institute (National Institutes of Health/NIH) in Maryland. His research here may someday be able to cure severe genetic eye disease, such as Retinitis Pigmentosa and even Macular Degeneration.

After graduating medical school, Dr. Soroudi obtained extensive surgical training at the Los Angeles County Hospital in East Los Angeles as a General Surgery Intern.

Dr. Soroudi spent a year at the Division of Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery at UCLA where he pursued his research interests in thyroid-related (Graves') orbital disease and clinical interests in complex eyelid surgery under the tutelage of his mentor, Professors Robert Alan Goldberg, past president of the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. Dr. Soroudi's findings here have been published multiple times in the prestigious Journal of Ophthalmic Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery.

Dr. Soroudi also completed a Corneal Fellowship under the tutelage of Professors James Salz, past president of the International Society of Refractive Surgery, and Dr. Yaron Rabinowitz, a world experts in treating Keratoconus. Here, he sub-specialized in performing all-laser LASIK (which was a brand new technology at the time), Flapless LASIK/PRK, Corneal Transplantation Surgery, as well as implanting Intacs corneal implants to treat irregular astigmatism (Keratoconus).

Prior to starting private practice, Dr. Soroudi had the honor and privilege of spending a year working alongside and learning from his old mentor, Professor Samuel Masket, past president of the American Society of Cataract & Refractive Surgery. Here we had the opportunity to become an expert in performing complex Cataract & Lens Replacement Surgery from literally one of the best, most famous Cataract Surgeons in the world.

Dr. Soroudi has authored a book titled “Advanced Refractive Surgery,” and has published multiple research papers in respected peer-reviewed scientific journals. He has invented and holds three U.S. Patents on the technology used to make “self-heating” compresses designed to treat Styes/Chalazia and other common eyelid conditions (Blepharitis & Chronic Dry Eyes). This product, called “Eye-press,” is sold over-the-counter nationwide at more than 10,000 pharmacies, including CVS. Dr. Soroudi has also patented the utility of Hydrocolloid Adhesive technology for the treatment of Sties. This product, called "Stye-press" is also coming to CVS, Walgreens & Rite Aid nationwide in the near future.

Dr. Soroudi has obtained another two patents on a technology that allows for the formulation of “SPF Eye Drops.” These drops, called UVista, are artificial tears designed to protect human eyes from UV radiation of the sun and are ideal for people who spend a considerable amount of time working/playing outside in hot climates (e.g., athletes (surfers)). They could potentially prevent the development of Pterygia ("Surfer Eyes"), ingrowth of blood vessels into the Cornea causing chronic redness, as well as certain kinds of Cataracts & Even worsening Macular Degeneration. This product is currently being developed and will be available over-the-counter nationally and internationally.

Dr. Soroudi serves as volunteer Clinical Instructor of Ophthalmology at UCLA Jules Stein Eye Institute, and he continues to be involved in research and teaching. He speaks fluent Farsi and Spanish and is semi-fluent in Italian. In his rare spare time, he enjoys riding horses and playing polo.

Just did my LASIK Surgery with Dr. Soroudi after using glasses for over 20 years. I wish I had done this sooner.

The consultation was quick and easy, Dr. Soroudi was very well informed and helped me understand the whole process of the procedure before going in. Surgery was incredibly quick and virtually painless. During the surgery Dr. Soroudi talks you through the whole process keeping you calm and involved. Recovery was incredibly quick as well, the surgery was early in the morning, I took a short nap after and was already noticing improvements. By the next day my vision was nearly perfect, taking only a day or 2 more for me to feel fully recovered. A month later and I have no complaints, I can see 20/20. I only wish I had done this sooner in my life. Best decision I have made, completely 100% satisfied!!

This doctor can do miracles. He has the knowledge and the technology to make your eyes and vision the best.

We traveled from Sacramento to Los Angeles to do it, and he fixed my son’s eyes, and now he can see without glasses, whereas in Sacramento, his eye doctor told my son that nothing would help him. Trust your eyes to Doctor Soroudi if you want perfect vision!

I sincerely enjoyed this appointment! The office is beautiful and has a lovely seating area.

The staff was exceedingly friendly and attentive, and Dr. Soroudi was thorough, informative, and incredibly friendly. It was one of the nicest doctor’s appointments I've ever had. I highly recommend him as your new ophthalmologist.
