Every child is unique. So is their eye care.
With 25 years in practice, Dr. Le has experience examining children from infancy onward, including children who cannot read an eye chart or respond verbally. Eye exams are advertised starting at 6 months; younger infants may also be evaluated.
Preston Eye Center has extensive experience caring for children, including infants and toddlers, nonverbal children, and children with autism or developmental differences.
We want families to feel comfortable asking about their child's individual needs before visiting. A child does not always need to read letters or speak to participate in an eye examination.
Infants & toddlersSchool-age childrenNonverbal childrenAutism & developmental differences
What happens during a young child’s eye exam?
An infant or nonverbal child does not need to identify letters. The doctor can assess important aspects of vision and eye health using age-appropriate observations and examination techniques.
Depending on the child’s age and needs, the visit may include checking how the eyes focus and work together, eye alignment, prescription needs, and overall eye health.
Parents are welcome to tell our team ahead of time about communication preferences, sensory sensitivities, or ways to help their child feel comfortable.

Meet Dr. Lance Le
25 years of care for children and families
Since 2001, Dr. Le has cared for patients across generations, with particular experience in pediatric eye examinations—including infants, toddlers, and children who communicate without words.
His pediatric services include evaluation of amblyopia (lazy eye) and strabismus (eye misalignment). When appropriate, management may involve glasses, eye patching, or brief in-office therapeutic activities.
Adults are welcome for routine vision exams and medical eye care. Our doctor and staff speak both English and Spanish.
Dr. Lance Le earned his biology degree from the University of Texas at Austin and his Doctor of Optometry degree from the University of Houston College of Optometry in 2001. He began private practice after graduation and has extensive training in pediatric optometry.
Dr. Le welcomes patients as young as six months old and has experience caring for nonverbal children and children with autism or other developmental differences. His approach emphasizes individualized attention to children and families.
He also provides comprehensive eye care for adults, specialty contact lens fittings, eyewear prescriptions, and pre- and postoperative eye care. He is a member of the American Optometric Association and the Texas Optometric Association.

Medical vs. routine eye visits

Questions Parents Ask
What to know before your visit
Can a nonverbal child have an eye exam?
Yes. Eye examinations can include objective methods that do not require a child to read an eye chart or describe what they see. Please call to discuss your child's needs and what to expect.
Do you see infants and toddlers?
Yes. Preston Eye Center welcomes infants and toddlers. Call our office to discuss your child's age and reason for the visit.
Are adults welcome too?
Absolutely. While pediatric eye care is our primary focus, Preston Eye Center welcomes patients of all ages.
Can I book an appointment online?
Appointments are scheduled by phone. Please contact our office directly.
What is amblyopia (lazy eye)?
Amblyopia is reduced vision in one eye, or less commonly both eyes, during visual development. Early evaluation is important. Treatment depends on the child and may include prescription glasses or patching.
Can Dr. Le evaluate crossed or wandering eyes?
Yes. Dr. Le evaluates strabismus (eye misalignment) and discusses nonsurgical management options.
What is the difference between a routine and a medical eye exam?
Routine eye exams typically assess vision and prescriptions. Medical visits evaluate symptoms or eye conditions such as glaucoma or diabetic eye disease. Coverage depends on your plan and the reason for the visit; please call our team to review your benefits.
Extended evening hours Tuesday and Wednesday until 7 PM — call to schedule.
