Experts Making a Personal Connection
When it comes to plastic surgery and eye care, you want a surgeon who is an expert with years of experience and a mastery of the most advanced procedures available. Our founder and medical director, Dr. Emilio M. Justo, has made a practice of adopting the safest and most precise tools and techniques in order to provide the best care for his patients.
However, the most sophisticated treatments in the world are not effective without the individual connections and careful listening that are at the core of our philosophy. It takes a genuine and compassionate partnership between doctor and patient to actualize goals and create an overall positive experience.
We are proud to announce that Dr. Justo has been named one of 2012’s “Top Docs” in the United States by Plastic Surgery Practice for the third year in a row.
Dr. Justo has gathered a team of compassionate specialists including our accomplished and personable Director of Optometry, Eugene Shifrin, O.D., F.A.A.O., to help our patients realize their goals. Come find out for yourself why so many trust their care to Arizona Eye Institute & Cosmetic Laser Center.
We have assembled a team of carefully selected professionals with the skill, experience, and compassion to help you reach your goals.

A New Outlook on Life


““When I opened my eyes, it was the first time I could truly
see my granddaughters clearly in their entire lives. It was a
truly special gift. My 20/400 prescription is long gone, and
I am so glad that I put my trust in Dr. Justo!”
