Uber Eyes Optometry of Palo Alto

About Uber Eyes Optometry

Uber Eyes Optometry of Palo Alto is an eye care office at 2750 Middlefield Road in Midtown. It combines an optometry practice with a full service optical boutique in the same space. The practice says it has served Midtown Palo Alto since 2009.

The office handles routine eye exams for adults and children, contact lens fittings and the treatment of a range of eye conditions. It also sells frames and lenses. You can reach it by phone at 650-321-3382, by fax at 650-321-3383 or by email at optical@ubereyes.com. The website also has an online appointment request form.

The optometrist

The practice lists Dr. Xiao Xiao as its optometrist and describes Dr. Xiao as board certified. According to the biography on the site, Dr. Xiao earned a Doctor of Optometry degree from the UC Berkeley School of Optometry in 2013, after a B.A. in molecular cell biology at UC Berkeley. Clinical training included externships at VA hospitals in Washington State and Arizona.

The biography says Dr. Xiao is certified for glaucoma and pharmaceutical therapy. It also notes fluency in Mandarin and a particular enjoyment of fitting hard-to-fit contact lenses. That interest shows up in the specialty lens services the practice highlights.

Eye care services

The eye care page lists these services:

• Eye exams for adults and children, including prescriptions for glasses and contact lenses. The practice says exams screen for glaucoma, cataracts, macular degeneration and diabetic eye conditions.
• Contact lens evaluation and fitting.
• Specialty lenses, including scleral lenses and hybrid SynergEyes lenses, along with management of corneal diseases.
• Dry eye evaluation and treatment.
• Treatment of eye diseases and infections.
• LASIK and refractive surgery consultations. The practice lists these as consultations.

These are the practice's own listings. PaloAlto.org does not judge the quality of care and gives no medical advice. If you have a specific eye concern, describe it when you book so the office can plan the right kind of visit. For a sudden loss of vision or an eye injury, call 911 or go to an emergency room.

The optical boutique

The optical side of the business is a full service boutique. It fills prescriptions written by other doctors as well as its own, so you can come in for frames even if your exam was done somewhere else. The practice says it focuses on collections from independent eyewear makers.

Brands named on the eyewear page include Barton Perreira, Bevel, DITA Lancier, l.a. Eyeworks, Lindberg, Masunaga, Nuage Lunettes, Oakley, OVVO, ProDesign, Silhouette, TC Charton, Thom Browne and Zero G. Stock changes, so call ahead if you are looking for a particular line or model.

Who the practice suits

Going by its published services, the office covers routine needs for a whole household, with exams for both adults and children. Contact lens wearers are a clear focus, from standard fittings to scleral and hybrid lenses. Mandarin speakers can talk through their care in that language with the doctor. People who want frames from smaller eyewear makers will find a curated selection in the boutique. Saturday morning hours help families fit an exam around school and work.

Booking and insurance

Book by phone or with the online appointment request form. A request is not a confirmed time, so wait for the office to reply. The website has a page about insurance. Coverage depends on your plan and on whether you are seeing the doctor for a routine exam or a medical eye problem, so call with your plan details before your visit.

Hours are weekdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The office is closed on Sunday. The Saturday hours are useful if you work standard weekday hours, but they are short, so book early in the week.

Tips for visiting

Bring your current glasses, your contact lens boxes or prescription and a list of any medications. If you wear specialty lenses, bring records from your previous fitter.
