Eye care professionals specialize in understanding how the human eye really works, as well as diseases and conditions that affect your vision - many of which do not have obvious symptoms. Our dedicated team of staff and doctors are available to assist you with all of your eyecare needs.
Our exceptional, friendly staff is our greatest asset. They are excited about what they do, and they care personally about getting the best results for our patients.
Our receptionists will try to accommodate your busy schedule by finding appointments that suit your needs. We will help you understand your insurance coverage and if financial arrangements are necessary, we will be glad to help you develop a plan to make your vision care treatment possible.
Eye doctors know how age and risk factors affect vision over time for young and old, and they understand the benefits and features of corrective lenses including eyeglasses and contacts.
Our optometrist takes the time to explain the results of your eye exam, describe your options and listen to your eye care needs. Because maintaining good eye health is an ongoing partnership, we encourage you to ask questions and share your health information, which could be vital to monitoring, diagnosing and treating potential vision problems.

Dr. Liu looks back to his youth, when he was aged 10, and had just shot an arrow into his sister’s eye. He now realizes that his epiphany to become an OD wasn’t from that incident, but many years later when he had a chance to shadow some ODs in college and enjoyed the time. Dr. Liu proceeded to UCSD in San Diego and received his BS in Biological Science. Then, after working in an HIV research lab for one year, he took leave of California and headed to New York, where he received his OD at the State University Optometry school in Manhattan.
Dr. Liu has been practicing since late 1999. His practice has always been a family affair, from children to the elderly. Dr. Liu performs sports vision consultations, lasik and cataract consults, and hard to fit contacts. Dr. Liu strives to provide his patients the best possible eyecare with a compassionate approach, and helps clients accomplish their desired goals. Dr. Liu supports the military and goes out of his way to thank them for their sacrifices by donating to events that support the military and their families.
When not helping people see better, Dr. Liu spends time with his wife and three kids cycling, skiing, and spending time with the family at home and on the soccer field.
