Company Overview: Eye Physicians of the East Bay

Michael L. Wang, M.D., F.A.C.S.; Steven G. Pascal, M.D.; and Jane V. Loman, M.D.have decades of experience in comprehensive medical and surgical eye care.

We are dedicated to providing the highest level of care to each and every patient, regardless of their circumstances or how complicated their case may be. We have the most advanced diagnostic, therapeutic, and surgical technology that exists in all of ophthalmology. Laser-assisted, small incision cataract surgery with refractive correction and advanced, micro-invasive glaucoma surgery are two examples of state-of-the-art surgical techniques that we routinely use to preserve and restore vision for our patients.

Our physicians also have many years of experience in prescribing eyeglasses or contact lenses to their patients in order to improve their eyesight.
