Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our detailed eye exams assess vision quality, eye health, and systemic health indicators. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we detect early signs of diseases like glaucoma and macular degeneration. The process includes visual acuity testing, refraction analysis, and intraocular pressure measurement, ensuring personalized care for all ages from children to seniors.
LASIK Surgery
Our blade-free LASIK procedure reshapes the cornea using Wavefront-guided technology for precise vision correction. Fellowship-trained surgeons perform this outpatient procedure in under 20 minutes, offering rapid recovery and reduced dependency on glasses. Custom treatment plans address myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism with exceptional accuracy.
Cataract Surgery
We specialize in modern cataract removal with premium intraocular lens implants. Using advanced multifocal IOLs, our surgeons restore clear vision while addressing presbyopia. The procedure replaces clouded natural lenses with artificial ones, offering lasting solutions for improved visual acuity and quality of life.
Dry Eye Treatment
Our personalized dry eye program addresses meibomian gland dysfunction and aqueous deficiency. Treatments include prescription drops, punctal plugs, and thermal therapy. We focus on root causes rather than temporary relief, combining advanced diagnostics with customized management strategies for long-term ocular comfort.
Corneal Transplants
Dr. Chu performs full and partial corneal transplants using donor tissue for severe corneal damage. Techniques include penetrating keratoplasty and endothelial keratoplasty, with specialized expertise in high-risk cases. Our approach minimizes rejection risks while restoring vision clarity for patients with keratoconus or corneal scarring.

Well, I had both of my cataract surgeries done in August and the results are spectacular! I have the vision of a teenager (though, amusingly, I wore glasses for distant vision as a teenager!), with no further need for reading glasses or difficulties seeing road signs on the interstate ( previously I couldn't see them clearly until I was practically under them!) Dr. Chu and his team have been very proactive in my check ups and tell me they will probably do a few laser "touchups" on the left lens because of a few small deposits (that I am not honestly able to detect, but they want

Fantastic placeInitially I was going to Kleiman Evangelista, but moved to Fort Worth, read Eyeworks great reviews & decided to try them. Very impressed. Much larger place than I imagined & Everyone was top notch. I felt Very comfortable with Opthamologists who examined me. I had one who did the initial exam, one who treated me for my bad dry eyes issue & have an appointment with one for cataract surgery. All 3 Opthamologists were outstanding. Don't think they could've made me any more comfortable than they made me. Awesome experience

I love going here because they are prompt with the appointment I never wait long and I have been fortunate to see the same person each time . I don't know if they do that on purpose but it does add a extra comfort level . They also don't pressure you to do anything if they have anew eye test they ask you only once if you would like to try it and if you say no they do t pressure you about it and after when you get prescription it is up to you if you want to see the group there and pick out frames or if you want to take a copy of your script and go elsewhere . I just really like them and

Extremely rude staff. I was so uncomfortable during my whole appointment. The doctor spoke to me for about 1minute. The front door ladies do not want to be there and are not helpful when it comes to frequently asked questions. I have never felt so uncomfortable and disappointed at a Dr office like this before.

I travel from another state to have my eyes checked at the Chu Group. Dr. Chu and Dr. Matthews explain procedures well and have a friendly manner. The whole staff and doctors really care for their patients.
