Meet Keith G. Tokuhara, M.D., Ophthalmologist
Dr. Keith Tokuhara is a fellowship-trained ophthalmologist specializing in advanced cataract and anterior segment surgery. He focuses on cases many surgeons or centers may not accept, including:
- Prior retinal surgery or silicone oil cases
- Dislocated or unstable intraocular lenses (IOLs)
- Persistent blur, glare, or imbalance after surgery
- Structural damage or irregular anatomy
- Coexisting conditions such as glaucoma
If you’ve had prior surgery, trauma, or complications, your case requires more than a standard approach. Every procedure is:
- Individually planned based on your anatomy and surgical history
- Executed with precision using advanced instrumentation and techniques
- Performed directly by your surgeon, without delegation or standardization
