Our Doctors
Eye Doctors Brian Chou, Jacquelin Le and Kelvin Nguyen are dedicated to serving the eye care needs of San Diego residents.
Rest assured, each ey
e doctor at EyeLux Optometry is certified to diagnose and treat ocular disease with topical and oral pharmaceutical privileges. They are seasoned professionals that detect and manage complex eye conditions which you probably have never heard nor even knew existed. You won’t find any recent optometry graduates that are here today but gone tomorrow. The retail vision chains and warehouse vision centers don't come anywhere close to EyeLux Optometry.
Perhaps most important, you can trust our eye doctors for a lifetime of healthy eyes and optimal vision. Honesty and integrity are our core values that distinguish us from the competition. Our optometrists will not order expensive diagnostic tests or prescribe glasses, medicine, and nutritional supplements, unless there is good reason.

Jacquelin Le, O.D.
Dr. Jacquelin Le earned her doctorate of optometry from New England College of Optometry in 1996 after completing undergraduate studies at University of Southern California in 1992. A San Diego native, her clinical interests include pediatric vision care, diagnosing and treating ocular disease, contact lens prescribing, and laser vision correction management. Dr. Le has a close understanding of amblyopia, or "lazy eye", because her son required intensive amblyopia therapy to avert permanent weak vision.
Dr. Le has provided charitable care to the underprivileged through Volunteer Optometric Services to Humanity (VOSH). When living in Merced, she volunteered for three years providing weekly vision screenings to low-income, single mothers.
In her free time, she enjoys spending time with family, running, biking, and swimming.
