In 2013 I was introduced to Dr Jafari who performed my LASIK eye surgery. Not at day has passed without my acknowledging how wonderful it is to be able to see without corrective lenses. The staff at the clinic are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The surgery went smoothly and I felt I had plenty of support and care post surgery.

I found Dr. Jafri through Unilocal!and our insurance carrier on behalf of my boss. He’s had a wonderful experience with her and the fact she is available at two office locations (Santa Monica and UCLA/​Westwood) has been of great assistance.
Below is a review of the STAFF — NOT Dr. Jafri:
Maria at the front desk of the UCLA office has been nothing but rude and challenging. She barked at me for his MRM #, I responded, I don’t have an MRM but I have a patient number. She proceeds to say forget it how do you spell his name? I’m not sure if she’s dyslexic or but she was incredibly rude, and despite me spelling it normally she kept switching the I and the E. I then attempted to spell it phonetically– using the military alphabet. She still didn’t comprehend it. I said, can I please just give you the patient number? This has always been adequate in the past. And she responded with, that’s what I asked for initially. I said you asked for the MRM, she said, ‘baby forget it let’s just move forward– it’s the same thing.’ Are you kidding me?
Part of being a professional is not using internal jargon when dealing with patients since clearly i don’t know an MRM is a patient number– why on earth would you berate the patient or patient representative? Secondly telling me to ‘let it go baby, forget it let’s move forward’ is just downright unprofessional and in poor taste, especially since the error was on her end. Be a professional and take ownership when you err. You’re there to ‘serve’ the patients, not abuse them.
Now I understand why my boss doesn’t want to deal with the aggravation of managing his own appointments.
That being said, the Santa Monica office has been consistently pleasant and helpful from the start. They’ve been a joy to work with.

Hi readers,
Dr. Batool Jafri told me she was destined to be an eye doctor and it shows in her precision to give me a shot in my eye lid. She was very calm and confident which is very important. She communicated with me as she would communicate with a friend versus a patient which was cool as I like to chit chat.
In hind sight I see that the chalazion that swelled on my eyelid was due to me plucking out a gray hair… the Dr. agreed that could have caused the chalazion.
It’s been about 10 days and the small lump is not gone, but I think it’s dumping fragments in to my eye that when I wake up looks like sleep in my eye…
If I have to have actual surgery Batool would be the one!

Chalazion «Chala» never went away even with injection and drops. I didn’t stick with the drops as needed as they really didn’t seem to work. I called Dr. Jafri and scheduled the surgery. Initially I knew about the surgery however I wanted to check out the injection and drops first.
I like Dr. Jafri. She is a beautiful petite woman with small hands so I felt comfortable with her working around my eye area. I wasn’t jumpy and trusted her 100%. I had to get an injection in my eye lid and I’m sure if I had to watch I would have been jumping around, however I let the Dr. do her thing without making the process more difficult by being worried.
She gave me a Valium or some small tablet that chills the patient out and after about 10 minutes she injected my eye lid with ease and the feeling was nothing more than a quick pinch. When she stuck me in my eyelid and asked if I felt anything… I felt nada. Unlike a dentist you can still feel pressure…
Dr. Jafri commenced her master piece.
Process took about about 30 – 40 minutes and I think most of the time was waiting for the numbness to kick in.
I see now that our eye lashes are very sensitive and I will never pluck out a gray hair again from my lashes as I’m sure that was the initial culprit that started this madness.
As far as bruising, since my skin is dark I couldn’t see the small bruise as much as someone with lighter skin so that was a plus for me. Now a week later I barely see anything and the hideous bump is gone!
Also I forgot to mention that the lovely Dr. Jafri gave me a great rate since I had already been there for the injection.
I Highly recommend Dr. Jafri if you have a chalazion (s) she is Excellent at what she does. I can tell she’s a good woman at heart in business and her life.
Of course I would never think of ever going to another eye doctor!

After being unsuccessfully treated for over a year by another eye specialist, my 81-​year-​old father was referred to Dr. Jafri for a chronic eye infection. Within seconds of looking at his eye, she diagnosed him properly and prescribed an aggressive treatment regimen. The patience Dr. Jafri and her staff have shown in all of their dealings with him (significantly hearing impaired), and with me as a concerned caregiver have been such a relief. Due to the improvements in his vision, I no longer have to accompany him to his visits. I would highly recommend Dr. Jafri to anyone who has the need to see a specialist regarding eye health.

After dealing with swollen eyelids (chalazions) for almost 2 months and visiting 3 doctors while being out of state, Dr. Jafri and her staff were a total godsend. I received answers and relief from her. I knew I needed surgery — anything around the eye is very sensitive and you only get two of em!– so I wanted to make sure I went to someone with experience. I felt I was in great hands with Dr. Jafri given that she has over 15 years of experience. She handled my ojos with such delicate care and was very informative. I have to say, I had a TON of appointments in the month of April so I am sure the staff was probably like, Oh geez, it’s Sarah walking through the door again — haha but everytime I walked in – they greeted me so politely and made me feel so welcome. I am happy to report I am healed and on the mend finally! Thanks Dr. Jafri!
I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Jafri and her staff. If you want options and immediate results — see her. she’s fab. Another awesome fact about Dr. Jafri — she currently teaches at UCLA as the Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology.
