Services
Comprehensive Eye Exam
Our comprehensive eye exams use advanced technology to assess vision quality and detect ocular diseases. Patients receive detailed evaluations of visual acuity, eye coordination, and intraocular pressure. The exam includes retinal imaging and digital refraction to ensure precise prescriptions and early detection of conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration.
Pediatric Eye Exam
Specialized eye exams for children starting at 6 months old focus on visual development and learning-related vision problems. Our optometrists use age-appropriate techniques to assess eye health, binocular vision, and visual acuity. Early detection of amblyopia and strabismus ensures timely intervention for optimal visual development and academic success.
Contact Lens Exam
Our contact lens exams include corneal topography and tear film analysis to determine optimal lens fit and material. Patients receive personalized recommendations for daily wear, extended wear, or specialty lenses. We offer trial lenses and comprehensive instruction on proper insertion, removal, and care techniques for safe, comfortable vision correction.
Ocular Emergencies
We provide urgent care for eye injuries, infections, and sudden vision changes with same-day appointments available. Treatment includes foreign body removal, chemical burn management, and acute glaucoma intervention. Our optometrists handle emergencies requiring immediate attention to prevent permanent vision damage while avoiding lengthy ER wait times.
Myopia Control
Our myopia control program combines Ortho-K lenses, MiSight daily disposables, and Miyosmart spectacle lenses to slow childhood nearsightedness progression. Custom treatment plans include regular monitoring of axial length growth and prescription adjustments. This evidence-based approach reduces long-term risks of high myopia-related complications like retinal detachment and glaucoma.

I have nothing but kind words to say about lumina eye care and their staff. My father recently had to get his eye checked for an issue with his license. Their website was easy to navigate and making an appointment online took very little time. At their office we were warmly greeted by the receptionist and didn't have to wait long at all for our appointment. I found Dr Yu to be very professional and my father was very happy with the care he received during his eye exam. She answered all of our questions and we left feeling his eyesight is in very good hands. Will definitely keep going to this
