Dr. Ying Liu, OD

Optometrist
4353 La Jolla Village Dr, Ste H-20, San Diego, CA
Dr. Liu grew up in Beijing, China. Her family decided to move to Northern California when she was twelve years old. She completed her undergraduate degree at the University of California, San Diego, and earned her Doctor of Optometry from the State University of New York College of Optometry. She specializes in Myopia Control and Orthokeratology, Vision Therapy, and Pediatric Optometry. Dr. Liu has been in practice for about five years, first in New York City with an ophthalmology clinic, and officially moved to San Diego in 2016. She has experience treating people from diverse cultural backgrounds and a variety of eye diseases. In the Bay Area, she continues to treat both adults and children, with an emphasis on orthokeratology to control nearsightedness. Growing up, Dr. Liu was always interested in vision and how the eyes work. She remembers her little cousin who wore thick glasses that made his eyes look huge and an eyepatch that made him look like a pirate. She says that since this encounter, she has been fascinated with the human eye. Dr. Liu relates, "As an optometrist, I strive to let every parent know the importance of a proper eye exam for their children so that amblyopia and strabismus can be detected before their critical age; and that eye movement, focusing, and binocularity inefficiencies would not hinder their learning ability..." She continues, "...it is rewarding to make critical suggestions to parents about their child's eyes as it relates to learning and behavior and how to keep a child's eyes healthy and prescription at bay, in a world where so much takes place indoors and in front of a computer." It is in this vein and distinct interest that Dr. Liu specializes in Pediatric Vision and Vision Therapy. Dr. Liu speaks Chinese fluently, and when she is not working, she enjoys spending time with her son and daughter, who always keep her on her toes!
