Whether you’re due for an annual checkup or need a specialized assessment, you can trust that you’ll find the care and answers you need at Uptown Optometry.
Diabetic Eye Exams
If you’re living with diabetes, you know how important it is to pay extra attention to your eye health. We offer diabetic eye exams to monitor for signs of diabetic retinopathy and other complications. Dr. Wong can use our Optos Nikon Retinal Camera to capture detailed images of your retina without dilation.
Eyeglasses
Finding the perfect pair of glasses is about style and comfort just as much as it’s about correcting vision problems. Our eyewear selection features designer frames and the latest lens technology to help you see and look your best. Our team can guide you through choosing lenses that fit your budget and lifestyle.

Whether you need daily, weekly, or specialty lenses, we’ve got you covered. Dr. Wong specializes in fitting lenses for patients with astigmatism, dry eyes, and other unique eye problems. We’ll make sure your contacts are comfortable and deliver the crystal-clear vision you expect.
Glaucoma Screening and Treatment
Glaucoma is a leading cause of vision loss, but early detection can make all the difference. We use visual field analysis and optic nerve imaging in glaucoma screenings to catch the eye disease early. If our eye doctors detect a need for treatment, we’ll develop a personalized plan to protect your vision.
Dry Eye Treatment
Dry, irritated eyes can make daily life a struggle. Dr. Wong offers effective treatments tailored to your symptoms, like prescription eye drops and more advanced therapies. Let us help you find lasting relief and get back to seeing comfortably.
LASIK Consultations
Considering LASIK? Dr. Wong is an expert in identifying great candidates for refractive surgery. He’ll discuss your vision goals, evaluate your candidacy, and guide you through every step of the process.
