Eyeglasses

Blurred vision can impact your quality of life and diminish your experience of once-in-a-lifetime events.

Eyeglasses can fix blurred vision so you can enjoy a good book or make out every detail of a wedding.

How Do Eyeglasses Work? 

Glasses can correct refractive errors, which are vision problems that occur because your eye does not correctly focus light into the retina. The retina sits near the back of your eye and transforms the light into visual information that’s sent to your brain. When light isn’t correctly redirected to this part of the eye, it often results in blurry vision and other visual impairments. Prescription glasses help redirect the light into your retinas for clearer vision. Our doctors can determine whether you need glasses during an eye exam appointment at our La Jolla or Del Mar, CA, offices.

I've been seeing Dr Gordon Wong for about 10 years now. Even when my insurance changed to Kaiser and didn't cover my visits to GW, I still went and paid out of pocket because he is so very good at what he does I didn't want to compromise. Very thorough and very cutting edge on all he does. I'm a big fan.

Dr Wong and his team are exceptional! Everyone is courteous and professional. I especially appreciate that Dr Wong takes the time to thoroughly explain his process, his recommendations, etc. The equipment he has to exam my eye health is cutting edge. I definitely feel I’m getting A+ exam when I’m there. In addition, he always takes the time to answer all my questions; I never feel rushed. I highly recommend GW Eye Associates!

Consultation

During a consultation, we encourage you to discuss any questions or concerns with our doctors, no matter how trivial they may seem. Small visual concerns can indicate larger health problems where early treatment is essential. 

Eye Exam 

At your appointment, we’ll perform a series of tests to get a clear view of your overall eye health and look for any underlying issues. While other eye doctors need to dilate your pupils to view your retinas clearly, we use state-of-the-art technology to take photos of your eye without making them sensitive to light.

Checking Your Vision 

During the eye exam, our doctors will ask you to read letters from a chart to determine how well you can see different-sized objects at a distance. If you have trouble reading the large or medium-sized lines, you need glasses or another form of visual aid. In that case, our doctor will have you look through a combination of lenses and try to read the same lines until you can see clearly.

Selecting Eyeglasses

If you need glasses or an updated prescription, our staff can help you choose the frame and lens options for a new pair of glasses. In some cases, we may be able to fit new lenses into your current frames if they are in good condition

Crafting Your Eyewear 

Once you’ve selected your frames and lens options, we can go ahead and start creating your lenses on-site with our advanced technology. Our in-office lab allows us to craft your glasses on the same day, though some special orders may require additional time.

Make Adjustments 

When you receive your new eyeglasses, our staff will help you try them on to see whether we need to make any adjustments to your prescription or the frames. We will ensure your glasses feel comfortable and provide you with excellent vision.

Glasses vs. Contact Lenses 

Eyeglasses and contact lenses are both effective treatments for common vision problems, and many patients use both to give them flexibility. Our eye doctors can help you figure out whether glasses, contacts, or both solutions are best for your unique needs during an eye exam.

Dr. Wong is the best. I have been seeing him for 3 years. I just recently got Lasik through Dr. Wong's office and Nvision. I highly recommend GW Eye Associates. Everyone at the office is great. Dr. Wong goes above and beyond for his patients.
