As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Sung offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- Myopia (Nearsightedness): With myopia (nearsightedness), distant objects look fuzzy. Your optometrist will perform an eye exam, determine the severity, and recommend glasses or contacts to help you see clearly.
- Papilledema: An eye exam by your optometrist may reveal papilledema, swelling of the optic nerve, prompting them to refer you for medical evaluation and management of the underlying cause, such as increased pressure in the brain.
- Exotropia: If your eyes drift outward, you might have exotropia; your optometrist can diagnose this and recommend treatments to help your eyes focus correctly and improve your vision.
- Retinal Hemorrhage: Retinal hemorrhages, or bleeds in the retina, are often detectable during a routine eye exam by your optometrist, leading to timely diagnosis and treatment.
- Disorder of Choroid: A choroid disorder is a problem with the choroid, the vascular layer of the eye that nourishes the retina, and an optometrist can detect and help manage these issues through comprehensive eye exams.
- Endophthalmitis: Your optometrist can help detect and manage the serious eye infection endophthalmitis, referring you to a specialist for treatment, thus protecting your vision.
- Visual Field Loss: Visual field loss means you can't see parts of your surroundings, like having a blind spot, and an optometrist can diagnose the cause and recommend treatment.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Optometric care with Dr. Sung:
- What is the difference between an Optometrist and an Ophthalmologist?
- An optometrist (OD) is the primary eye care doctor for routine exams, prescribing glasses/contacts, and managing common eye diseases. An ophthalmologist (MD/DO) is a medical and surgical physician who performs eye surgery and treats more complex eye diseases. Dr. Sung often works with ophthalmologists, providing pre- and post-operative care.
- How often should I get a comprehensive eye exam?
- For healthy adults, a comprehensive eye exam every one to two years is typically recommended. However, children, seniors, and those with risk factors like diabetes or high blood pressure may need more frequent exams, as determined by Dr. Sung.
- I'm interested in LASIK. Is that something you do?
- Dr. Sung works with ophthalmologists to co-manage LASIK. While the surgery is performed by an ophthalmologist, Dr. Sung performs the initial evaluation, provides pre-operative care, and manages all post-operative follow-up visits.
- At what age should my child have their first eye exam?
- The American Optometric Association recommends a first comprehensive eye exam for a child at 6 months of age, again at age 3, and just before they start school. This is essential for detecting issues like lazy eye or misaligned eyes that are best treated early.
- What is glaucoma and how do you test for it?
- Glaucoma is a disease that damages the optic nerve, often caused by high pressure inside the eye. It can lead to permanent vision loss if untreated. Testing during a routine exam includes measuring eye pressure, checking peripheral vision, and examining the optic nerve.
- Do I need a separate appointment for a contact lens fitting?
- Yes, a separate appointment is needed for a contact lens fitting. This process involves more than just your glasses prescription, including precise measurements of your eye's curvature, tear film evaluation, and trial lens fitting to ensure comfort and clear vision. A contact lens prescription requires this comprehensive evaluation.
- What are the benefits of buying glasses from my optometrist's office versus online?
- Buying glasses from Dr. Sung's office offers personalized service, including expert fitting by our trained opticians for proper lens alignment and adjustments for maximum comfort. We can handle complex prescriptions and provide direct support if any issues arise after your purchase. This ensures quality assurance and peace of mind.
- My eyes often feel dry and gritty. Is this something you can treat?
- Yes, dry eye is a very common condition that we diagnose and manage. Treatment options range from artificial tears and prescription eye drops to in-office procedures that can improve tear quality and provide lasting relief.
