​Learn More About Dr. Tahir & His Hobbies!

I am an avid hobbyist in aviation with 31-years in radio control airplanes & helicopters including having my private pilot licence since the age of 19. I love CNC machining, and woodworking, as well as running this office website. My other hobbies include photography and saltwater aquariums.

The details required in my hobbies, keep me in touch with the requirements of precise sight. Anyone can see you for 5-min (and call it an eye exam), but it takes a true artist to perform their work with care and thought.  The eye is no different than my many hobbies; it is full of small parts which form a complete working model. If one part does not work, the entire assemble can fail. 

I take passion in my profession and strive with my staff to provide each patient with an eye exam like no other;  comprehensive, informative, relaxing., fun. I am a true believer if you always do what is best for the patient you can't go wrong. Learn more about my hobbies below.
