In a decades long battle with glaucoma, I could ask for no better general to lead me into the fight than Daniel Krivoy. This knowledgeable and exceptionally capable practitioner is the one person that you want protecting your visiShow moreon while standing between you and the dreaded destructive disease process. The fact that he’s a good, kind, considerate, and caring human being is the icing on the ophthalmological cake. If you think that I could recommend him any more highly, you’d be wrong!!
Although it took several hours to visit and be treated, the care and outcomes should be very positive and beneficial to me.

I'm thrilled to find a group of doctors and staff that I believe want me to regain my sight as badly as I want to. Dr Krivoy is the most incredible doctor I have ever met. I could not be more pleased. Thank you so much.

It was good and helpful
A very positive experience at Dr. Krivoy's office! I was greeted warmly by the receptionist; had only a short waiting period; pre-exam tests were performed by friendly and efficient technician Giovanni; had only a 15 minute wait for the doctor; Dr. Krivoy was warm, informative, and supportive during my exam; my follow-up appointment was scheduled right away. I feel fortunate to be under the care of this highly-recommended glaucoma specialist.
Dr. Krivoy patiently explained my eye condition and his recommended treatment. He has a kind and gentle demeanor. His staff is also professional and friendly. The office is immaculate! I am pleased to be under their care.
Dr. Krivoy is exceptional eye doctor who truly cares about their patients. He was recommended by my previous eye doctor who she now practices in London. She mentioned that he was the best and the most experienced Glucoma specialist in LA. He takes the time to explain my condition in simple terms with smile. The staff is welcoming and very efficient. I highly recommend Dr. Krivoy to anyone who needs help with Glucoma condition.
He took the time to explain the procedure and make us feel comfortable
The office is very well run, friendly staff.
Juana gave clear instructions to do a visual fields test. She was both pleasant and professional. I appreciated her care. KW
Very pleasant experience. The staff was patient, friendly and knowledgeable. The office was very clean and appeared to be efficiently run. Dr Krivoy is always very friendly and patient. I never feel rushed. The only issue is a temporary one. Finding the office was a challenge. But this was my first time at the new location.
Dr. Krivoy was friendly & knowledgeable. He thoroughly explained my eye condition to me which I appreciated.

Great doctor and patient experience here.
Optometrists and one other ophthalmologist wanted to treat me for closed angle glaucoma. Dr. Krivoy judged this unnecessary seven years ago. He was right. My eyes are stable and fine.
Very fast the doctor .
Dr. Krivoy is very professional and very kind, always making sure that I understand everything that’s going on with my eyes, and explains. the different options that I have going forward. I feel very fortunate to have been under his expert care for many years I recommend people to him with confidence.
Efficient and teated with respect.
