Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our comprehensive eye exams evaluate vision acuity, eye health, and systemic health indicators. Using advanced tools like Optos imaging, we detect early signs of conditions like glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy. Patients receive personalized recommendations for corrective lenses or further treatment based on detailed assessments of eye function and health.
Contact Lens Evaluation
We specialize in contact lens fittings for vision correction and therapeutic needs. Our process includes corneal mapping and tear film analysis to ensure optimal lens comfort and eye health. Patients receive trial lenses and follow-up evaluations to guarantee proper fit and visual clarity for conditions like astigmatism or presbyopia.
Diabetic Eye Exam
These exams focus on detecting diabetes-related retinal damage through dilated eye exams and retinal imaging. We monitor vascular changes and provide early intervention strategies to prevent vision loss. Patients receive education on managing blood sugar levels to protect long-term eye health.
Pediatric Eye Exam
We assess visual development in children through age-appropriate tests for acuity, eye alignment, and focusing ability. Early detection of amblyopia or strabismus ensures timely treatment. Our exams include parental guidance on recognizing vision problems affecting learning and development.

About 8 years ago my sister recommended Dr. Lee as she and her daughter went to her for their glasses. I saw her and was extremely pleased. She is very pleasant and her eye exam is quick & efficient. She even assisted me in selecting a pair of eyeglass frames that fit my face. The prescription helped me see much clearer on the computer. A few years later I went to another optometrist in West L.A. although he was also pleasant the prescription was not the same. I recently visited her again and she and her staff were just a friendly as they were before. They also have a good selection of name brand

She asked me several questions about my insurance and try to sell me some test for $ 20 which I refused , while checking my eyes she never answered my few questions at the end I asked her if I can google what Im asking to you and she kept quite very rude and unprofessional approach toward patient . Thats God Ill not see her again . Good luck all

Dr Lee and her staff were great! Dr Lee did a fantastic job in ensuring my contacts were perfect. The eye exam was very thorough and they took their time to make sure the tests ran smooth. It is the best eye doctor I have been to since living in LA for 10 years. It seems like she doesnt price gouge on contacts either! I was happy with the price and they take my VSP insurance. If youre looking for an eye Dr, shes the one!

I always look forward to my appointments. Dr Lee and her staff are so friendly! Its funny how they always compliment my frames, knowing I bough them from her office the year before. She is stocked with the latest frames and has a huge selection. Thank you Dr Lee and staff for being so nice!

The visit was great. Felt welcomed from the point I walked through the door. Both receptionist were professional. I wish I had gotten the names to write them here because they made selecting my frames fun and very easy as they were attentive to what I was looking for. As for Dr. Lee. She is extremely nice and knowledgeable. Answered all of my questions and asked the right questions herself. Definitely am sticking with them moving forward.
