"Well worth the 3-hr drive I made to get to my first appt. I told Dr. Safi I will follow him anywhere. He’s the best. I trust him; he’s an Army doctor, and they see worse things up at Tripler because of the military exposure. And he’s always in a good mood; helps put you at ease. I recommend you guys to everyone."

As Bennett Eye Institute has been transformed into Eye Center of Hawai’i its essential to acknowledge our history. In 1998, Dr. Michael Bennett laid the foundation for our journey, leading us to become the largest retinal practice in Hawai’I and one of the nations leaders in research. However, as the landscape evolved, we recognized the need to differentiate ourselves, leading to our transition to Bennett Eye Institute. Now, as Eye Center of Hawai’i, we come full circle, reflecting our dedication to delivering exceptional care with expanded services.  In our new identity, we have embraced Wa’a “Canoe”. The canoe holds a profound significance in Hawaiian culture. We honor the spirit of the canoe, symbolically representing our commitment to guiding and supporting our patients on their journey to optimal eye health and vision.  This change signifies our renewed commitment to growth, expanded patient services, and unwavering dedication to both our physicians and staff. Over the years, weve seen remarkable growth and evolution within our practice, and this rebranding represents our vision for the future.
