About EyeWish Optometry

Welcome to EyeWish Optometry, where your vision takes center stage. Dr. Lora Pond founded the solo practice in 1989, and in 2005, Dr. Tania Mantua joined her to establish EyeWish Optometry. Since then, EyeWish Optometry has been a longstanding leader in providing the highest quality eye care. Although Dr. Pond retired in 2022 after dedicating many years to serving her patients diligently, our current dedicated eye doctors, Dr. Tania Mantua and Dr. Matt Siu, continue to serve the community.


Located at 7075 Redwood Blvd, Novato, CA 94945, our doctors boast over 30 years of comprehensive eye care experience. Dr. Mantua, a Fellow of the American Academy of Optometry, completed a residency in Low Vision Care and Hospital-Based Rehabilitative Optometry. Her experience includes serving as a Clinical Instructor for the University of California at Berkeley. Dr. Siu takes an interest in specialty contact lens fitting. His training at the University Eye Center in Manhattan allows him to fit difficult eyes with custom-made contact lenses. Although retired, Dr. Pond remains passionate about volunteering and continues to volunteer for Lions in Sight and participate in volunteer eye clinics worldwide.


At EyeWish Optometry, we focus on providing personalized eye care, finding the best contact lenses for our patients, and maintaining an exquisite selection of eyeglass frames. Driven by a commitment to exceptional patient care, we've invested in state-of-the-art technology, such as the Optos ultrawide field retinal imaging for early detection of retinal pathology, the Mastro2 OCT for management of macular degeneration and glaucoma, and the LipiFlow device for in-office dry eye treatment.


Your quality of life depends on what you see around you, and at EyeWish Optometry, our mission is to ensure your vision is as clear and vibrant as possible.
