Convenient Location

Our eye clinic in Cerritos, CA is conveniently located in the Cerritos Plaza – the same shopping plaza as Ralph’s and Wells Fargo, across from The UPS Store and near the Bowlero Cerritos bowling alley. We are just south of the 91 freeway near the intersection of Carmenita Road and South Street. We also serve Artesia, La Palma, Buena Park, Norwalk, Cypress, Downey and the surrounding cities of Southern California.

Technology Edge

True to our name - Modern Eyes Optometry utilizes some of the latest technologies to provide you with the most advanced eyecare with your comfort in mind.

See beneath the surface

The health of your eyes matters to you and it matters to us too, which is why we are offering both retinal photography and OCT to all our patients. OCT is a new, completely painless and highly advanced screening system that checks for potentially serious conditions such as glaucoma, diabetes, age-related macular degeneration, vitreous detachments and more.

I found this place from my insurance’s website and chose them specifically for the great reviews.Everyone from start... to finish at my first appointment was very efficient and attentive. Dr Chen was very patient in helping me find a new brand of contacts. She wasn’t pushy in persuading me to buy new glasses as my prescription only changed very slightly. Looking forward to other appointments in the future.read more
