 Meet Dr. Elizabeth Cho, OD – Your Trusted Eye Doctor in Orange County

When it comes to eye health and vision care, finding an optometrist who combines expertise, compassion, and a personal touch is essential. At Optometry Corner, patients trust Dr. Elizabeth Cho, OD for her dedication to comprehensive eye exams, myopia control, dry eye treatment, and specialty contact lenses.

A Lifelong Commitment to Eye Health and Patient Care
Dr. Cho’s journey into optometry began with her family’s deep commitment to healthcare. Surrounded by nurses, a dentist, a chiropractor, an acupuncturist, and inspired by relatives serving on overseas medical mission trips, she developed a passion for helping others see their world more clearly.

Her goal has always been to provide not only top-tier eye care services but also a compassionate experience that makes patients feel heard and valued.

Life-Changing Eye Care Experiences
Dr. Cho finds great joy in the moments when her patients’ lives are transformed through vision correction. One of her most memorable cases occurred during her residency in specialty contact lenses. She prescribed scleral lenses to a mother with keratoconus—a condition that distorts vision due to thinning of the cornea. For the first time, that mother could see the faces of her young twins clearly, bringing tears of joy to both patient and doctor.

Eye Health Advice from Dr. Cho
Dr. Cho emphasizes that clear vision doesn’t always mean healthy eyes. Conditions like glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy can progress silently without symptoms, which is why she urges everyone to schedule annual eye exams.

She also offers practical tips to protect your eyes from digital eye strain caused by prolonged screen use:
-Follow the 20/20/20 Rule – Every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
-Lubricate Regularly – Use preservative-free artificial tears every four hours during screen time.

Advancing in the Field of Optometry
Staying up-to-date with the latest in eye care technology and treatment methods is important to Dr. Cho. She draws on resources from Vision Source, a leading network of private practice optometrists, and collaborates with colleagues like Dr. Hawkin Lui, who inspires her with his dedication to both family and professional excellence.

A Personal Touch in Eye Care
Patients love Dr. Cho’s approachable personality and her ability to connect across cultures and languages. She speaks English, Spanish, and Korean, and is currently learning Italian—with a personal goal of mastering 10 languages.

Outside the clinic, she enjoys Orange Theory workouts, beach vacations, and coffee from The Mugs Café (her go-to: Kyoto Cold Brew). She also practices what she preaches when it comes to eye health, using nightly warm compresses and hypochlorous spray to maintain comfort and clarity.
