About

Optometrist Angela Wernow, OD in Encinitas provides full-scope primary eye care at the Azul Vision practice on Garden View Court, holding TLG certification for therapeutic laser and glaucoma management. Her clinical emphasis on ocular surface disease and dry-eye management intersects with periorbital skin health addressed by dermatology providers such as Benjamin Kelley, MD when blepharitis or meibomian gland dysfunction presents alongside cutaneous conditions. UC Berkeley School of Optometry class of 2012, Dr. Wernow completed her undergraduate degree in biological sciences at UC Davis before entering clinical optometry practice spanning private, corporate, and medical-group settings. Comprehensive exams include diabetic retinopathy screening, glaucoma monitoring with intraocular-pressure tonometry, and age-related macular degeneration surveillance using optical coherence tomography imaging. Prescription therapeutic regimens for chronic dry eye, including cyclosporine and lifitegrast ophthalmic solutions, route through North Coast Medical Pharmacy for specialty ophthalmic compounding and dispensing in the Encinitas corridor. Advanced contact-lens fittings address irregular corneal topography, post-surgical astigmatism, and keratoconus using scleral and gas-permeable lens designs mapped to corneal curvature data.
