Our optometrists are trained with the latest equipment, enabling them to generate an ultraprecise prescription and diagnose even the earliest warning signs of eye disease. No matter which exam you receive — annual, pediatric, diabetic, or contact lens — you can rely on our eye doctors to deliver the personalized experience and clear eyesight you deserve.

Outstanding Eyewear


Brookhurst Optometric Center offers a vast selection of quality frames and lenses to give you unparalleled vision clarity, day after day. Our talented opticians make sure that you love how your eyewear looks by carefully curating stylish, well-built glasses for your face shape, personal taste, and more. We also provide multiple lens enhancement options, such as eye strain-reducing Neurolens® and Crizal protection, to accommodate your prescription needs.

 

 

Dry Eye Therapy

Dry eye is a common eye condition that leads to uncomfortable symptoms like burning, redness, and itchiness. Since it has many potential underlying factors, our doctors use the LipiScan® device to determine the exact root cause of your unique case, and then customize your dry eye treatment with everything from eye drops to in-office TearCare® or LipiFlow® to meaningfully relieve your symptoms and restore your comfortable vision.

Myopia Control


Myopia is a common eye condition, especially among children, that results from the eye growing too long, causing distant objects to look blurry. Unlike standard glasses and contacts, our myopia management options correct vision and slow myopia progression, reducing your need for stronger prescriptions as well as your risk of developing other eye conditions years later. With ortho-k and multifocal lenses, our doctors keep myopia under control and ensure you and your children can see the important things.

Eye Disease Care


At Brookhurst Optometric Center, we’re big believers in taking preventative steps to protect your eyesight now and in the long run. Our eye doctors use cutting-edge technology like corneal topography and Optos retinal imaging to catch and treat stealthy conditions, such as glaucoma and macular degeneration, well before they affect your sight.

Avulux glasses in Fountain Valley

Avulux® Migraine & Light Sensitivity Glasses


Brookhurst Optometric Center is proud to offer Avulux® lenses for eyeglasses, which are clinically proven to block out certain light wavelengths that are known to incite or worsen migraine. To help patients experiencing migraine and light sensitivity, Avulux® filters out 97% of the detrimental light, including harmful colors like blue, amber, and red, while permitting up to 70% of soothing green light to shine through. This lets patients manage their migraine and reduce their symptoms, so they can get back to their daily life quicker!

Doctor Chi on my yearly eye exam discovered on the screening retinal pictures a tear in my left retina with possible retinal detachment. He assisted in contacting my Primary Care Provider and because of his efforts I got an urgent referral to a retinal specialist who was able to save my vision in the eye. I will be eternally grateful for the level of excellent care and caring I received.

Brookhurst Optometric has been my eye doctor for over 20 years starting with Dr James Cooperman. I recently went and did a full set of exams, ordered new glasses and new contacts. The staff is always very friendly and extremely professional. They have a great selection of frames, if you want a new frame with glasses. They make the experience a true delight and I would recommend them for all.

I usually don’t post but Brookhurst Optometric Center has exceeded my expectations. It used to be a different owner but they did a wonderful job continuing the service. Dr Chi is so helpful with my contact lens’s examination. He made sure I understood the changes and he answered all my questions. Sam is the most accommodating and helped me with all my requests. Such a wonderful experience with this office. Definitely will come back again.

Was greeted by the receptionist as soon as I entered the store. She was expecting me and was prepared to start on a series of tests, which she administered. Following these tests, I was ushered into the optical testing room where I met Dr. Chi. He administered the eye tests, decided on the corrections to my existing lenses, and handed them off to the lady who would do my glasses fitting. He also went over the test results that peeked into my eyes (no dilation required!) which indicated I was free from any bad stuff. I was allowed to keep my sunglasses frames (which I liked) and received the new glasses (sunglasses and clear) one week later. Wearing the new glasses now and am delighted with them. Pleasant and efficient operation which I recommend to anyone.

I went in for my annual exam. I expected to be greeted by a friendly staff and I certainly was! I was told Dr Cooperman himself retired which was no problem for me as I have never met him and was always examined by another doctor on staff. I must say that this crew working there is very friendly and professional. My appointment was on time, and I felt very well taken care of. I felt like they took the time to make sure I was getting the best service. The entire staff seems very knowledgeable and efficient. I would certainly recommend this office to anyone!

Husband has an urgent need to have his eye looked at, no appointment… the office scheduled him for next day, but asked him to stick around for a bit as they worked on getting him in sooner. He was seen later in the day and given a very thorough examination and testing. They went above and beyond for him.In addition, we have experienced the staff to be very professional, patient and kind when calling to change or make appointments. Also when checking in to be seen.The office is very clean

I give two thumbs up to the dedicated office staff. I would recommend the Brookhurst Optometric Center to anyone who needs immediate vision care. I was a previous patient and hadn’t been seen for 1.5 year. I took a chance a walked in hoping to be seen.I was greeted by Jacob who was warm and welcoming. I explained my vision problem and he asked if I wanted to be seen today. I said “yes”. Jacob checked my insurance and explained me the tests that would be performed. He was so kind and helpful. I was seen 30 minutes later and had a full eye exam and was fitted for contacts. I was so thrilled. I was seen by Dr Chi. Excellent Optometrist. He was very patience with me and explained and answered every question I had. He even assisted me by plucking sn ingrown hair from my eyelid. Wow! I checked out with the girls who were delightful . I had the best experience. The entire office staff was friendly and very helpful. Stop by and see them! You”ll be happy you did.

I had a good experience at this office for my eye exam. I've been having a little trouble seeing my phone with my glasses and Dr. Chi gave me a solution on my new ones. The staff were also very helpful since I walking in the door to me choosinga new frame. They treats me like a family instead of another patient. Not having to dilate this year because of the tech they have might be one of the best part.
