Howard Optometry

MARSHA HOWARD, O.D.

In her 29 years of experience, practice owner Dr. Marsha Howard has crafted a passion for providing every patient with the utmost respect and best service possible under spectacular doctors with state-of-the-art medical equipment. 

At Howard Optometry, patients have access to advanced technology, including the latest solutions from Lumenis, Optos and Optovue. It just takes a few minutes to assess the vascularity and retinal structures of the eye, giving the doctors powerful data with which to determine a long-term plan for your ocular health. The practice also favors the use of retinal photography over traditional, and uncomfortable dilation. 

In addition to regular, comprehensive eye exams for glasses and contacts, the office also offers other services such as (but not limited to): 

— LASIK and cataract co-management with partners at Coastal Vision and NVision
— Dry eye treatments, including iLux procedure and Lumenis (an IPL Light Therapy Treatment)
— Oculus Technology
— Convenient, same-day scheduling
— Additional products available, including Latisse Lash Lengthener and Upneeq for low-lying lids

Howard Optometry is especially excited to have added Lumenis’ revolutionary Optilight technology to their practice. “It’s an amazing, gentle pulsating light treatment that has helped so many patients suffering from Dry Eye Disease,” explains Dr. Howard. “My patients with MGD (Melibomian Gland Dysfunction) have been thrilled with their treatments and results.” The new Optimal Pulse Technology avoids lasers and delivers results in as little as two or three visits. 

Dr. Marsha Howard grew up in a medical family, realizing her passion for eye care while studying as an undergraduate at UC Berkeley. In the years between finishing her residency in 1994 and opening her own practice in 1997, Dr. Howard taught at her alma mater, as well as worked in other small optometry practices. One of the first five independent Doctors of Optometry hired by Costco nationwide, Dr. Howard loves treating all types of patients, and was thrilled when offered a second office in Laguna Niguel.
