Services
Dr. Cu-Unjieng provides comprehensive medical and surgical eye care for patients. Our services include:
Comprehensive Eye Exams
A comprehensive eye exam is a thorough evaluation of your vision and overall eye health. During the exam, your eye doctor will assess visual acuity, check for refractive errors such as nearsightedness or astigmatism, evaluate eye coordination and focusing ability, and screen for common eye diseases including glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration. Comprehensive eye exams are essential for maintaining healthy vision and detecting potential problems early.
Glaucoma Treatment
Glaucoma is a progressive eye disease that damages the optic nerve, typically due to elevated pressure inside the eye. Often developing without early symptoms, glaucoma can gradually lead to peripheral vision loss and permanent blindness if left untreated. Early detection through routine eye exams and timely treatment can help preserve vision and slow the progression of the disease.
Dr. Cu utilizes advanced technologies including Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS). MIGS refers to a group of advanced, micro-incisional procedures designed to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in glaucoma patients. By utilizing microscopic instruments and tiny incisions, MIGS offers a safer, faster alternative to traditional surgeries, often reducing a patient's dependence on eye drops.
Macular Degeneration
Macular degeneration is a progressive eye condition that affects the macula, the part of the retina responsible for sharp central vision. It can cause blurred or distorted vision, making everyday activities such as reading and driving more difficult. Early detection and ongoing management are essential to helping preserve vision and slow the progression of the disease.
Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery is a safe and effective procedure used to restore clear vision by removing the eye’s cloudy natural lens and replacing it with a clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL). The procedure is typically performed on an outpatient basis and can significantly improve vision, clarity, and overall quality of life.
Dr. Cu utilizes advanced technologies, including premium intraocular lenses, Optiwave Refractive Analysis (ORA), and femtosecond laser technology, to enhance surgical precision and optimize patient outcomes.
Dry Eye Treatment
Dry eye treatment focuses on relieving discomfort, improving tear quality, and protecting the surface of the eyes. Depending on the severity of the condition, treatment options may include artificial tears, prescription medications, and lifestyle modifications, to help restore lasting comfort and clear vision.
Minor Surgery

of in-office procedures designed to treat common eyelid conditions.
hese minimally invasive treatments
are typically performed with little
downtime and are focused on improving eye health, comfort, and overall visual function.
