We’re delighted to welcome Dr. Tamar Kaloustian to our Benjamin Eye Institute family! Dr. Tamar brings a unique blend of expertise, warmth, and dedication to patient care, making her a wonderful addition to our team.
Dr. Tamar Kaloustian graduated from the University of California, Irvine as a member of the Campuswide Honors Program and with a magna cum laude in 1995. She then graduated with honors from the Southern California College of Optometry in 1999 as a member of the honors Phi Beta Kappa society.
She created Market Optometrix in 2001 with the goal of incorporating quality eye care along with fashion forward eyewear. In 2011, Dr. Tamar sold Market Optometrix so that she could spend more time with her family and young children. Subsequently, she worked part time at various Los Angeles optometry offices, becoming intimate with patients’ needs and wants. When needed, she would refer to different ophthalmology specialists. Soon she started to recognize the quality care that consistently resulted from some specialist's offices. Dr. Arthur Benjamin was one such office where she would always encounter happy patients with wonderful post cataract and LASIK results. Thus, she sought to be part of the team that delivers such wonderful care, at the Benjamin Eye Institute.
Over her 20+ years of experience, Dr. Tamar has mastered the art of prescribing. She will measure what you like (your subjective refraction), what you need (your objective refraction), and what will actually be the most comfortable correction for your everyday needs (the art of prescribing). Eye coordination and possible prism use is also a critical part of her prescription evaluation, so don’t worry if you cannot decide between ‘one or two’ or if both options look the same because Dr. Tamar will always double check every answer to guarantee a result that you will be pleased with. Dr. Tamar enjoys all facets of patient care but is most passionate about contact lenses, eye coordination, and dry eyes.
Dr. Tamar is an avid reader and continuously stays well-informed on new and upcoming treatments, both medically and nutritionally. She has been married for 31 years, has three adult sons, and enjoys traveling, hiking, Pilates, reading, and spending time with family and friends.
We couldn’t be more excited to have Dr. Tamar on our team, and we know you’ll love working with her as much as we do.
