Thank you for visiting our website. All of us at the office are committed to bringing quality care to you. We hope that this website will educate you about the importance of your eyes and your health.
We have been fortunate in this past century that we have made breakthroughs in the care and treatment of glaucoma, the leading cause of blindness of all ages. In addition, we have seen a significant decrease in the number of cases of blindness from diabetes, the leading cause of blindness of working age Americans, age 21-55 years. We have witnessed, as Americans, how modern cataract surgery has changed in this century. People are living longer, enjoying rejuvenated eyesight and having more active lives than fifty years ago. In this new century, our challenge is to manage, treat, and hopefully, eradicate the disease of Age-Related Macular Degeneration, the leading cause of blindness after age 55 years.
We hope that we can answer some of your questions. In addition, we have made it possible for you to visit the National Library of Medicine for more information.
We began originally in our office on Beacon Street, in Brookline, Massachusetts. This was our location for 12 years. We moved to 320 Dardanelli Lane, Los Gatos, California in August 2003, and are currently at our new office at 2550 Samaritan Drive, San Jose, California. In the last decade, the practice of Dr. Gloria Wu has seen its practice grow with international patients as the community became more global with visiting international scholars, business people, diplomats, students, and tourists. We have accommodated the needs of our patients by providing full translation services since 1994.
