Summary

Dr. Foad J. Shirazian, O.D. — Optometrist in Tarzana, CA

Dr. Foad J. Shirazian is a trusted optometrist in Tarzana, California, delivering more than 20 years of clinical experience with a modern, relationship-driven approach. At My Optometry he emphasizes careful, one-on-one care—combining medical precision with the time and attention patients need to understand their diagnosis and long-term treatment options.

A UCLA graduate with a double major in Biology and Psychology, Dr. Shirazian gained formative clinical experience volunteering at the Jules Stein Eye Institute. He earned his Doctorate of Optometry from the Southern California College of Optometry in 2001. Those early experiences shaped his focus on disease detection, management, and continuity of care rather than quick, transactional visits.

Clinical services include comprehensive eye exams, advanced contact lens fittings (including astigmatism and multifocal lenses), and screening and management for glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic eye disease, and dry eye. He uses high-resolution retinal imaging and other advanced diagnostics to detect problems early and monitor changes precisely. For surgical needs, Dr. Shirazian coordinates care with UCLA specialists and local ophthalmologists to ensure seamless co-management of cataract, LASIK, and retinal procedures.

Deeply rooted in the Tarzana community, Dr. Shirazian has participated in school vision screenings, provided care in senior living communities, mentored aspiring optometrists, and is recognized by the Los Angeles Legacy Business Program for long-standing local service. Outside the office he is a devoted husband and father of two, who enjoys reading, staying active, and following basketball.
