Reviews

"First time visit to TICHO Eye Associates. Very nice office including its own optical center. I was greeted by the very friendly and helpful receptionist and then asked to wait for a few moments to be taken back. Alyna was my technician. She was very professional, organized and pleasant. She did all my testing and then I followed up with Dr. Sanders. Meeting a new healthcare provider can be intimidating and scary. Dr. Sanders was kind, gentle, thorough and patient. She answered all my questions and addressed my concerns. I would definitely recommend TICHO for any optometry needs. Thank you TICHO!Debra Pogwizd-Schroedle"

"Ticho Eye Associates in my opinion is the only place to go for your ophthalmology care. Dr Ticho is world renowned. Dr Laura Sanders truly cares about her patients and is extremely thorough. She practically saved my vision and keeps me in line with follow up and medications. The staff goes above and beyond. I’ve recommended Ticho to anyone and everyone that asks."
