Why Ontario Patients Choose Eye MDs of Inland

Ontario patients come to us most often for cataract evaluations and for diabetic eye exams — if you live with diabetes, a dilated retinal exam at least once a year is one of the most important appointments on your calendar. And because every doctor and staff member here speaks Spanish, you can schedule, ask questions, and understand every explanation in the language you’re most comfortable in.

Glaucoma deserves its own specialist: diagnosis and treatment are provided through Inland Glaucoma Center, our dedicated glaucoma division in the same Upland building, led by a UCLA fellowship-trained glaucoma specialist.
