I really like this place; The staff is great and kind, and Dr. Cheng is very thorough and will take the time to answer your questions. They also were pretty accommodating in getting me in for an urgent appointment and doing follow up appointments to make sure my eye healed. I imagine I will keep going here in the future for general eye/glasses needs. My only advice would be to make sure you make an morning appt. It seems they get very backed up in the afternoon, and after bringing you back for the glaucoma test etc, you will probably not see the actual doctor for at least 2 hours after your appt time; That is the only reason I didn't give 5 stars. Other than that, I enjoyed my experience here.. at least as much as one can when getting your eye poked and prodded.

I've really appreciated the thoroughness of Dr. Cheng's office. I've had borderline high eye pressure readings for years and Dr. Cheng's office (and her optometrist who I saw first) are the first that took it seriously despite my age (most are older than 27 when glaucoma becomes a concern). Other eye professionals had chalked up the readings to thicker corneas, but Dr. Cheng's office pursued additional testing to map the nerves in my retina and make sure I wasn't developing glaucoma. It took some time to find an opening for the visual field test, but they were able to give me medication that would prevent progression of an issue in the meantime, so I didn't mind waiting. She worked with me when the first medicated drops were difficult to adhere to due to side effects and heavily suggested PREVENTATIVE measures. That's right, they caught some thinning of the nerves in my eye and urged me to treat it before I lose vision! I had concerns about surgery for something that hasn't happened yet, but she took the time to explain to me HOW the surgery worked to change the structure of my eye and the pros vs the (very minimal) risks. Everyone who was waiting with me on the day of the procedure were raving about how much they love Dr. Cheng and her staff were familiar with other patients, which was very reassuring that she's had patients stay with her so long and so many had positive experiences. I feel very lucky!
