Description

Specialties

There are followers and there are leaders and in optometry, Dr. George Johnson is a leader. He has always believed in being an early adopter of new eye care technologies to better serve his patients. He has been adding new diagnostic instruments to his practice even when other offices were not. This leadership paid off when using one of his advanced instruments he discovered a problem with a patient’s side vision that indicated either a brain tumor or aneurysm in the brain. Dr. Johnson immediately referred the patient to a specialist who in fact discovered an aneurysm. The patient could have easily died if the blood vessel had ruptured. He had surgery to repair the blood vessel and all was well.

We encourage all patients to get annual eye examinations. The patient who had a brain aneurysm simply made an appointment for his annual eye examination without having any symptoms of a vision problem. He expected a routine visit, but eye exam with the new instrument probably saved his life.

History

Established in 1983.

Dr. Johnson graduated, with honors, from Southern California College of Optometry in 1979. He opened Advanced Eye Care Center in its current location in 1983.

The «Mission» of our practice is the same today as it was in 1983. «My office is dedicated to serving our patients with utmost quality, care, and sincerity. I desire my office to be at the forefront of my profession by providing our patients with the highest level of patient care possible. The office staff must be highly trained; dedicated to professional patient care; have the initiative to care for the patient’s needs and the needs of the practice; and the willingness to maintain up-​to-​date technical skills. Every decision and every action by my staff and I should aim towards this mission.»
