About

Thi Trieu, OD practices optometry in Allied Gardens at Kaiser Permanente Zion Medical Center, 4647 Zion Ave, San Diego 92120. Dr. Trieu's clinical scope within Kaiser's integrated care system covers comprehensive eye examinations, refractive correction for nearsightedness and farsightedness, contact lens evaluation, and medical management of anterior segment conditions including viral conjunctivitis and blepharitis. Visual field testing is a core component of her examination protocol, used to screen for glaucoma, neurological visual pathway deficits, and retinal disease progression in patients referred from Kaiser's primary care and endocrinology departments. Pediatric patients in the Allied Gardens area who need both vision and dental developmental screenings can coordinate through providers including BRSH+FLSS Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics in San Carlos, where children's oral and visual health milestones are tracked on parallel timelines. The Zion Medical Center campus houses optometry alongside Kaiser's full primary care, pharmacy, and specialty network, allowing Dr. Trieu to cross-reference each patient's medication list and systemic health record during eye exams. Diabetic retinopathy screening through dilated fundus evaluation is a recurring element of her practice, particularly for patients whose blood glucose management is tracked by Kaiser endocrinologists at the same facility. The 92120 ZIP that covers Allied Gardens also serves Grantville and Del Cerro, and the Zion campus draws patients from all three sub-communities via its position near the 8 freeway. Geriatric patients whose declining vision intersects with residential care needs can connect through La Mesa Elder Care in San Carlos, where visual impairment is factored into fall-prevention and independence assessments. Dr. Trieu's optometric evaluations at this San Diego facility include slit-lamp biomicroscopy, tonometry, autorefraction, and optical coherence tomography when retinal imaging is clinically indicated.
