2nd Doctor/Therapist’s Name:Cynthia Huang
2nd Doctor/Therapist’s Email:drhuang@familyvisioncare.org
About The 2nd Doctor/Therapist:Dr. Cynthia Huang grew up in San Mateo, attended Aragon High, and then earned her undergraduate degree at University of California, Irvine. She extended her stay in Southern California to complete her doctorate in optometry at the Southern California College of Optometry at Marshall B. Ketchum University. Dr. Huang has clinical experience seeing patients of all ages in community health centers, Veterans Affairs, and here at Family Vision Care, where she was an intern for three months during her last year of optometry school. Dr. Huang provides comprehensive eye care and is board certified in the management of ocular disease. She is passionate about specialty contact lenses for irregular corneas and pediatric eye care, including vision therapy and myopia management. Her love of contact lenses stems from an interest in biomedical technology and having struggled with being nearsighted as a child. She wore special contact lenses (CRT or orthokeratology lenses) to help, she especially loves helping children who are becoming nearsighted too quickly. However, she knows that great vision is not simply about seeing 20/20. Vision therapy can help young students better attend, track and read more comfortably and vision rehabilitation can help those with concussion and brain injury to get their lives back under control. She looks forward to helping many students to reach their highest potential and helping head injury patients to a quicker road to recovery.In her spare time, Dr. Huang loves solving puzzles, attending musicals, and traveling. She is an avid Disney fan and hopes to visit all the Disney parks in the world someday. One of her favorite memories from optometry school is her trip to Aguascalientes, Mexico with the Lion’s Club, where she got to explore a new country and provide eye care to those in need. She is a polyglot, as she enjoys any opportunity to learn and practice speaking other languages. As a Bay Area native, she is excited to be back home and tending to the eye care needs of her community.
