Services
Cataract Surgery
Our cataract surgeons perform precise laser-assisted procedures using the CATALYS Precision Laser to remove clouded lenses and implant advanced intraocular lenses. This outpatient surgery restores clear vision for patients with cataracts, utilizing techniques that minimize recovery time and enhance visual outcomes. The procedure addresses symptoms like blurred vision and light sensitivity, improving quality of life for seniors and active individuals.
LASIK
LASIK consultations and surgeries correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism using blade-free laser technology. Our specialists conduct thorough evaluations to determine candidacy, ensuring optimal results through customized treatment plans. Patients achieve reduced dependency on glasses or contacts, with many experiencing improved vision within 24 hours post-procedure.
Glaucoma Treatment
We diagnose and manage glaucoma through tonometry, visual field testing, and OCT imaging to monitor optic nerve health. Treatments include medicated eye drops, Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty, and minimally invasive surgeries like MIGS to control intraocular pressure. Early intervention prevents vision loss, emphasizing regular screenings for at-risk patients.
Pediatric Eye Care
Specialized exams detect amblyopia, strabismus, and other vision issues in children. Our pediatric ophthalmologists use age-appropriate techniques to assess visual acuity and binocular vision, ensuring early treatment of conditions that could impair development. Services include refractive error correction and management of congenital cataracts.
Dry Eye Treatment
Advanced diagnostics identify causes of chronic dry eye, including Meibomian Gland Dysfunction. Treatments range from prescription drops like Restasis to IPL therapy and punctal plugs, targeting inflammation and improving tear production. Personalized plans alleviate discomfort and stabilize ocular surface health for long-term relief.

I've been going here for some time. Dr Wu has been treating my glaucoma. Recently I experienced a broken blood vessel in one eye. They fit me in immediately for tests & treatment. As busy as it is I am always amazed how organized and relaxed it feels.

Impeccably clean office, professional and attentive staff all the way around. I called for an appointment and they were able to book me the next day due to a cancellation, and their optical staff happened to be in the same day, lucky! They got me in even without a cellphone check-in (I'm one of the few who don't own one) and brought me in quickly. Perfectly smooth experience all the way through, would highly recommend. Don't believe the negative reviews, this place is great!
