Thomas's Story

THOMAS D. LOBUE, MD LoBue Laser & Eye Medical Centers, Inc. LoBue Laser & Eye Medical Centers are celebrating over 26 years of expertise in the Temecula Valley. I specialize in comprehensive ophthalmology and cataract surgery. I offer premier lens implants which allow many patients to see without glasses. All four locations offer a full line of optometric services. We also offer such products as Latisse, an eye lash growth system, a full service hearing aid center, and wellness program to enhance the lives of patients and their families. All surgeries are performed at my facility, The Oaks Surgery Center and I offer LASIK at my facility next door, The NVISION LASIK Center, Murrieta. My son Stephen is in his fourth year of medical school with an eye toward succeeding me in my surgical practice. My daughter Christina is a registered dietician working as a concierge nutritionist for a large medical practice in Northern California.

While I was there, we helped well over 500 people. Many times there is one patient whose story seems to stand out above the rest. A man came to me who was blind. His right eye saw nothing due to an incurable disease called Optic Atrophy. His left eye had a cataract so dense he could not see anything but light and dark. He lived on an adjacent island and traveled to the mission and stayed with friends for weeks until we arrived. He was our first patient to have Cataract surgery and the next day he could see for the first time in years. The surgery was like a miracle for the man. There is no disability insurance or social security for these people. Family members who are blind are not productive and a drain on the family's limited resources. Restoring this man's vision has a profound effect on his ability to contribute to the family income and no longer be a burden. This was an incredible experience that I was also able to share with my two children. They assisted in the surgery with me and it is something we plan to do yearly.
