Comprehensive Eye Care in Berkeley

Your vision changes in ways you might not notice. A quick kiosk screen isn't the same as a real medical checkup. At Lightbridge Health, our Berkeley team takes the time to truly listen and look out for your health. We use modern tools and a personal touch to protect your sight. It is expert, doctor-led care that focuses on what is best for you.

Our Optometry Services

A comprehensive eye exam evaluates more than just your glasses prescription. We assess your vision, eye pressure, ocular health, and risk factors for eye disease. Your visit may include:

  • Glasses prescription 
  • Contact lens evaluation 
  • Eye pressure measurement 
  • Binocular vision assessment 
  • Cataract evaluation 
  • Glaucoma screening 
  • Retinal and optic nerve evaluation 
  • Personalized recommendations based on your eye health and lifestyle

We evaluate and manage a wide range of medical eye conditions, including:

  • Glaucoma and glaucoma suspect monitoring 
  • Diabetic eye disease
  •  Macular degeneration 
  • Dry eye disease 
  • Red or painful eyes 
  • Keratitis 
  • Uveitis 
  • Eye infections 
  • Allergic eye disease 
  • Corneal conditions 
  • Flashes and floaters 
  • Sudden changes in vision

Same-day or urgent appointments may be available for certain eye concerns once scheduling opens.

Diabetes can affect the retina before you notice changes in your vision.

We provide diabetic eye examinations and retinal monitoring to detect diabetic retinopathy and other complications early. When appropriate, findings can be communicated with your primary care physician or diabetes care team.

Glaucoma can cause permanent vision loss without early symptoms. Depending on your clinical needs, glaucoma testing may include:

  • Intraocular pressure measurement 
  • Optic nerve evaluation 
  • OCT imaging 
  • Visual field testing 
  • Corneal thickness measurement 
  • Gonioscopy

Advanced imaging allows us to evaluate structures of the retina, macula, and optic nerve in greater detail. OCT and retinal imaging may be recommended for patients with:

  • Glaucoma 
  • Diabetes 
  • Macular degeneration 
  • Retinal disease 
  • Unexplained vision changes 
  • High-risk ocular findings

We provide contact lens evaluations and fittings for:

  • Daily disposable lenses 
  • Monthly lenses 
  • Toric lenses for astigmatism
  • Multifocal contact lenses 
  • Monovision
  • Specialty lenses 
  • Rigid gas permeable lenses 
  • Scleral lenses

Our goal is to find a lens that provides excellent vision while maintaining long-term eye health and comfort.

Specialty lenses may be appropriate for patients with:

  • Keratoconus 
  • Irregular corneas 
  • Significant dry eye 
  • High prescriptions 
  • Previous corneal surgery 
  • Difficulty achieving good vision with standard contact lenses

Progressive nearsightedness in children can increase the risk of future eye disease. We offer evidence-based myopia management options, which may include:

  • MiSight 1 day contact lenses 
  • Orthokeratology 
  • Myopia-control spectacle lenses when appropriate 
  • Individualized monitoring of myopia progression

Children rely heavily on their vision for learning and development. We evaluate:

  • Visual acuity 
  • Eye alignment 
  • Focusing ability 
  • Binocular vision 
  • Refractive error 
  • Eye health 
  • Myopia progression

Dry eye is often more complex than simply needing artificial tears. We evaluate the underlying causes of dry eye and create individualized treatment plans. Treatment may include:

  • Prescription eye drops 
  • Lid hygiene 
  • Warm compress therapy 
  • Nutritional recommendations when appropriate 
  • Meibomian gland treatment 
  • Advanced dry eye procedures such as IPL or radiofrequency when clinically appropriate

We provide pre- and post-operative care for patients undergoing:

  • Cataract surgery 
  • LASIK 
  • PRK (Photorefractive keratectomy)
  • Other refractive procedures

We can also help determine when a surgical consultation may be appropriate.

We evaluate many urgent eye conditions, including:

  • Red eye 
  • Eye pain 
  • Foreign body 
  • Corneal abrasion 
  • Sudden vision changes 
  • New flashes or floaters 
  • Eye infections

Sudden severe vision loss, significant eye trauma, or other serious emergencies may require immediate emergency or specialist care.
