Gulf Vision PLLC

Specialties

Dr. Echetebu specializes in a lot more than correcting her patient’s refractive disorders with glasses and/​or contacts. Her lengthy and thorough comprehensive exams give her allowance to look directly at the patient’s blood vessels, thereby revealing potential warning signs of serious health problems such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease and diabetes before the symptoms show up anywhere else in the body. Her two offices in the greater Houston area provide a huge selection of inexpensive and high-​end designer frames that are sure to appeal to any patients’ budget. Both offices also stock a wide variety of trial contact lenses for her simple contact lens fitting, to those that are more complex such as those for RGP, Toric/​Astigmatic correction and Bifocal/​Progressive wearers.

An avid traveler, Dr. Echetebu and her staff collectively speak four languages, English, Spanish, Russian and Igbo.

History

Established in 1997.

Zeinep O. Echetebu, O.D., Ph.D., therapeutic optometrist and optometric glaucoma specialist, has a straightforward practice philosophy and says, «I’m proud to be part of the Optometric Profession, because proper vision care is vital for both adults and children, yet is often overlooked because of the cost. I aim to utilize my Doctorate in Optometry, PhD in Biochemistry, humble upbringing abroad, and my friendly personality towards my patients to emphasize the importance of routine eye-​care. My staff and I are firmly committed to give the best medical and optical care to each and every patient because, truly, this is why we are here at Gulf and Gulfgate Vision.»
