Dr. Paul T. Woo O.D.



I am a user of the CRT lenses and it's tough to find an optometry office that knows them well. It's even harder to find an office that specializes in them, so I was lucky to have been introduced to 1234 Ortho-K. I actually had no idea what an ortho-k lens was, but it turns out it’s just a different name for the CRT lenses. At 1234 the staff and Dr. Woo walked me through the pros and cons and the benefits of newer lenses. The staff seems well trained and all are very attentive and quick to answer questions or call for help from other members. Dr. Woo is thoughtful, knowledgeable, and doesn't mind explaining what he's doing and why. He also has a good sense of humor and bedside manner.



From Keith K.



Dr. Woo is extremely attentive, professional, patient, and knowledgeable. Elaine is a super sweet and capable woman. Whenever I encounter an issue, she is the first person I go to for advice. I remember on many occasions where Elaine will go out of her way to make sure my needs are met and help me follow up with Dr. Woo. The staff is always happy to help and friendly (even during peak hours). It is really a good clinic with such a nice clean environment and excellent customer service. I will be sticking to 1234 Eye Care Clinic for a very long time and will recommend my family and friends as well. Definitely 5 stars worthy!



From Jenny C.



Never knew much about Ortho-k until my daughter needed glasses. I did some research and found Dr. Paul Woo. We talked over the phone and he was such a professional. He thoroughly explained the technology to me and was very patient while understanding our needs. After several discussions we decided to visit the office and have a consultation meeting. There was no pressure throughout the process and experience with all the staff was very pleasant. We have now been with Dr. Woo for 2 year running and we can't be happier. I would say Dr. Woo really knows Ortho-K with his 20+ years of experience in this field. I would not hesitate to recommend my family, friends and others to 1234 Eye Care Clinic.



From Charlie P.



I've been going here for 16 years, ever since I was a blind-as-a-bat 4th grader. Now I've graduated from college and am working full time in Seattle and I still come back for Dr. Woo's appointments! The ortho-k lenses have always been really important to me because it's made my life so much easier! I don't have to struggle to see presentations in class and at work, and I'm never freaking out about misplacing my glasses! I highly recommend you stop by here and give Dr. Woo a shot! He's very easy to work with and you won't regret it!



From Thomas L.



Came here for the Ortho-K lens treatment. Just finished up the program and things are good with the lenses. Was my first time using any sort of lens. The staff was helpful in explaining how to care for the lenses. Dr. Woo is friendly and caring. I've had a great experience here and would recommend getting ortho-k lenses from here.



From Aubrey T.



Dr. Woo has been my optometrist for half a decade, and I've only ever had positive experiences! I used to get new glasses here every year before switching to contact lenses, and they always have tons of pretty frames in lots of styles and colors. Not to mention the nose rests actually fit Asian faces (if you've ever had sunglasses slide down your face all day, you know how non-negotiable this is!) Everyone here is always very friendly and professional when I come in, and all my appointments have been super smooth and efficient. Plus, the whole staff speaks various dialects of Chinese in addition to English.



From Maddi M.



My entire family has been going to 1234 eye care since 2002. Unlike most places that try to squeeze the most money out of you during every visit, Dr. Woo and his staff always have our best interests at heart. My eyesight kept getting worse as a teen, so Dr. Woo recommended trying gas permeable contacts, since they can actually help preserve your vision.



From Carol W.



I would just like to take the time to thank Dr. Woo at 1234 Ortho-K for saving my vision! Coming from a family with hereditary eye degenerative disorder, Dr. Woo was a blessing! My parents and grandparents are all over 1000 degrees, so if I didn't have Dr. Woo, my eyes would be somewhere close to 2000 degrees at this point in time. In the last decade, he has managed to keep my eyes down to 900 degrees (which is REALLY good considering I could easily be at 1600+ at his point in my life.) With Ortho-K, life was so much easier! Dr. Woo takes great care of your eyes and he is always open to questions. He won't sugarcoat anything; he always tells the TRUTH. My family has been there for two generations now and I am sure that I will take my kids there in the future. Go to Dr. Woo and I'm sure you won't regret it!



From Martin M.



Absolutely the best result and experience. Dr. Woo, Elaine and their staff were very efficient in getting my son his Ortho-K correction lens. I was referred by a friend and also looked online, just like you are doing now, and made a decision to make an appointment to visit their facility in Alhambra. We were there for an hour for the initial analysis and in a couple days we had the actual lens. I was skeptical at first, but "seeing" is believing. After the first night my son wore his lens to sleep, the next morning he was able to see without his glasses. I was astonished by the results. Since then, I have introduced several other friends to visit their office and all returned with spectacular results. I highly recommend Dr. Woo, Elaine and all their friendly staff.



From Fong C.



I started seeing Dr. Woo over a year ago. My previous doctor's practice switched hands several times since I started with them, and I was frustrated with having to meet a new doctor every year or so. Dr. Woo founded 1234 Vision Care and has been with his practice for over a decade, so I knew I could rely on him. I switched from CRT lenses to Ortho-K. The transition was seamless, and I prefer the Ortho-K lenses because they corrected my astigmatism. My eyesight has not degraded since I started Ortho-K. What a relief!



From Emily Z.



This place has helped my family a lot. All 3 of my kids needed glasses, but after I found this amazing place and used their Ortho-k contacts, they were able to see perfectly. I have never regretted coming here, this clinic has great service, very friendly and welcoming people. They all try their hardest to make sure you have a great experience. This place is AMAZING!



From Olive K.



Earlier this year, I had LASIK surgery at a famous refractive surgery practice on Wilshire Blvd. However, the surgery failed, and I was left with worse vision plus horrible astigmatism. I literally had double vision and had to wear glasses to see clear again. The eye surgeon recommended a second surgery to re-adjust my vision, but I have lost all confidence in the surgeon. I decided to go see Dr. Woo, because both of my kids have had great success with his treatments. After a month of Ortho-K, my vision is much improved and now I am able to see well without glasses. I strongly suggest people to see Dr. Woo for at least a consultation before deciding to go for vision refractive surgery or if you have had failed vision correction surgery or refractive surgery and want good vision, this is where you want to spend your money.



From Tien Tien M.



Ortho-K works great and helps stabilize my child's vision. It stabilized my 15 years old’s vision. She just needs to put on the lenses for the night and during the day has 20/20 (or better) vision which allows her to swim with no prescription goggles. She sees very well at the school classroom and driving as well. Thank you, Dr Paul Woo.



From Joanne L.



I have already been to quite a few eye care places in China, and my family is disappointed because after all the treatments. When we came to the US, we came across 1234 by chance and it was one of the luckiest things that had ever happened in my life. I took my glasses off and saw the world just fine after barely a month. If you are looking for Eye Care places, I highly recommend 1234. The doctors are super nice, and they always give you very helpful advice. Again, I highly recommend this amazing place!



From Ellen Z.



我的儿子今年14岁。在国内戴角膜塑形镜3年。2015年全家移民美国洛杉矶罗兰岗。16年参加钻石吧新春联谊会时 看到1234眼科的义诊活动，他们给我儿子做了一个免费的检查 ，医生告诉我 他需要更进一步的检查，可以去1234眼科在alhambra 的诊所。2天后我带着儿子来到了诊所，我受到了亲切热情的接待


医生询问了孩子的情况，给他做了多项的眼科检查，告诉他要停戴一段时间，再来复查。我们严格遵守医生的建议。几周后我们再次来到1234眼科，这一次医生给出了明确的诊断，根据儿子的现状，推荐了3种治疗方案，我和儿子商量后 选择了角膜塑形镜。现在戴镜快2年了，度数稳定，双眼视力恢复到了1.0，最重要的是，以前在国内戴角膜塑形镜 下午看黑板不清楚，需要再戴一副框架眼镜，现在完全不需要。感谢1234眼科！是你们帮助了我和我的儿子。



From Aylin L.



Decided to try out Ortho-K since my laboratory work prohibits the use of day wear contact lenses. I searched a number of providers around SoCal and found 1234 Eye Care had very positive reviews. I had most of my initial questions answered over the phone and scheduled a next day appointment to visit the clinic to get evaluated for the lenses. I was welcomed by a very friendly and efficient staff who whisked me through a series of screening tests to ensure I was a suitable candidate, which I was. By the 1st month follow up I was seeing with better than 20/20 vision! This obviously has exceeded my expectations. Additionally, my eyes no longer suffer from dryness that I experienced from contact lenses. I've been wearing them for 4 months now and am very satisfied with the results. Naturally, using overnight contact lenses is not for everyone but if the routine can fit your schedule and lifestyle, the results are wonderful. Thank you, Dr. Woo and team.

我們家是一個近視是很嚴重的家庭，所以從小我就很注意我兩個小孩子的眼睛保健習慣，但很不幸的是我家大兒子7 嵗第一次眼睛檢查就已經近視了三百度，今幾番的努力尋找我終於找到專門做兒童視力矯正的診所1234眼科，如今我小孩子矯正已經第五個年頭了經過這幾年來醫生細心的檢查及矯正我的小孩子白天不但不用戴眼鏡，視力在這五年之中也從來沒有增加過，身為做父母親的我，已經覺得是不幸中的大幸，謝謝你1234眼科。



From Shirley C.



Dr. Woo then explained the technology and treatment, answering all the questions I had and outlining the steps and expected results. I was fitted with lenses that day and found them surprisingly comfortable, relative to the reviews I had read online; Dr Woo ordered a set for me which I picked up the following week. The price of the therapy was very competitive and the number of patients they have treated gives them experience that few others can match. I highly recommend Dr Woo and the staff at 1234 Eye Care. They are knowledgeable, professional, and all-around kind and caring individuals. 20/20 would recommend!



From Johnny C.



我係一個七歲小朋友噶媽咪 收到學校噶通知書話我個仔噶視力達唔到標準 通過朋友介紹我帶左我個仔去1234兒童眼科做檢查 開頭唸住淨係配副眼鏡就搞掂 點知做左散瞳之後 醫生同我講我個仔噶左右眼視力差別好大 左眼有少少弱視。我當時真係好擔心同手足無措。好彩我當時決定左俾我個仔接受戴鏡矯正視力噶療程。經過左一年噶治療 我個仔噶視力已經恢復正常。雖然弱視矯正噶過程好麻煩 但係我覺得為左小朋友噶眼睛同埋佢噶將來 我依家噶付出都係值得噶。我相信每個媽咪都會為左自己噶小朋友噶健康成長付出所有。所以我覺得每個家長都應該及早發現同埋重視小朋友噶視力問題 每年定期去做眼科檢查 一旦發現左視力有任何問題都可以及早治療同埋控制。



From Fang L.



I was introduced to Ortho-K lens a few years ago, and absolutely fall in love with it. Before that, I thought I was going to be stuck with contact lenses that dries my eyes out in the morning, and unflattering glasses that would create steams that blocks my vision, which demolish my relationship with noodles. Now that I have the Ortho-K lens, I can see better than ever. Recently, I even went back to get a new pair of glasses for my personal reason, I was surprised to find out that my vision had improved so much! I am truly grateful that I was introduced to the Ortho-K lens. Not to mention, the doctor and staff are patience and sweet, literally the best optometry clinic that I've been to, highly recommended!!

I started seeing Dr. Woo over a year ago. My previous doctor's practice switched hands several times since I started with them, and I was frustrated with having to meet a new doctor every year or so. Dr. Woo founded 1234 Vision Care and has been with his practice for over a decade, so I knew I can rely on him.


With 1234 Vision Care I switched from CRT lenses to VIPOK Ortho-K. The transition was seamless and I prefer the Ortho-K lenses because they corrected my astigmatism. My eyesight has not degraded since I started Ortho-K. What a relief!


The staff is friendly and Dr. Woo answers all my questions. I feel comfortable making an appointment whenever I have eye issues, and they are happy to accommodate my schedule. The wait is short even on Saturday, and the staff is efficient so I don't waste a lot of time waiting to see a doctor.


During my most recent visit I met with a female doctor who is attentive to my chronic dry eye issue and suggested preservative-free eye drops. It has improved my condition drastically!


Thank you to the 1234 Vision Care team!
