From attending Western University to starting his own private practice in Beverly Hills, it took time and effort for Dr. Silani to find his calling in eyecare. 

Dr. Silani suffered from dry eyes and started seeing the need for care with his own patients so he decided to make it his focus for his career. He started making waves by letting other patients, providers and companies know about his focus. 

Dr. Silani strives to create a luxurious experience with his patients by spending more time with them, getting to know them on a level where he can even discuss his personal life and following up with them at least on a quarterly basis. He even created an Instagram wall for patients to take photos on their visits to enhance their experience. 

Overall Dr. Silani’s goal is to leave the world in a better place than when he started and he is absolutely doing this through his work in the dry eye space.
