I had the SMILE procedure done by Dr. Hamilton back in December of last year and I’ve got to say, it was the BEST decision I’ve ever made. From the start, Dr. Hamilton was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and made me feel very comfortable with what to expect during and after the procedure. There was no pain whatsoever and the surgery was done in just a few short minutes. The recovery process was almost nonexistent and left me with 20/10 vision!!! It’s safe to say that Dr. Hamilton is truly a master of his craft (and an awesome guy too!). 10/10 would recommend him to anybody. Thank you so much Dr. Hamilton!

Look no further, Hamilton Eye is the place to go. I went to a few consultations with some of the highest rated practices in LA, when I went to my consultation here I knew instantly I was going to get SMILE done here. During my consultation Dr. Hamilton spent so much more time with me explaining the procedure than any other Doctor, you can really tell he cares about his patients. SMILE changed my life, it was easily the best decision I’ve ever made

I got LASIK two weeks ago with Dr. Hamilton and from the initial consult to the pre and post-op visits, I had smooth, easy, transparent and straightforward interactions with the staff. Dr. Hamilton walked me through all the steps of the procedure both before and during to help calm any nerves. The recovery was as expected and the next day I could see perfectly. I highly recommend Dr. Hamilton for corrective eye surgery.

Rex did my cataract surgery over 10 years ago. He just introduced me to durysta for my glaucoma instead of using daily eye drops. Now I have an inplant which automatically releases the daily drop which is great. No more daily drops no more sore and irritable eyes. The procedure was pain free and only took a few seconds to inject. Great Job Rex
LASIK , PRK, SMILE: What’s The Difference?
LASIK is the most commonly performed laser eye surgery today, and was approved in 1995 by the U.S Food and Drug Administration. It is a wonderful option for individuals who wish to reduce their dependence on eyeglasses or contact lenses and improve their overall vision. For both personal and professional reasons, active and social patients in the greater Los Angeles area choose LASIK eye surgery, as it allows them to more freely pursue their hobbies, sports activities or career options.
LASIK is generally safe and is a very successful procedure when patients take the time to educate themselves and diligently search for a skilled and qualified eye surgeon. Advancements in LASIK technology have continued to increase its effectiveness and safety profile. Click on here to learn more about LASIK in Los Angeles.

Cataracts are extremely common among individuals aged sixty and up. In fact, all people will eventually develop cataracts if they live to be old enough. A cataract is a clouding of the crystalline lens of the eye, and the only way to remove cataracts is through cataract surgery. This is one of the safest procedures available in medicine. At our Los Angeles Cataract Center, Dr. Rex Hamilton meets with each patient to review cataract treatment options that best fit their lifestyle needs; he is world-renowned for Premium Cataract Surgery and has helped thousands of patients achieve better vision after their cataracts have been removed.
Cataract surgery with Rex Hamilton, M.D. involves the removal of the clouded lens, which is then replaced with a synthetic intraocular lens (IOL).
