Legacy Meets Innovation in Hoboken Eye Care

For nearly 100 years, EyeSite Vision Center has been part of Hoboken’s healthcare landscape, providing full-scope eye care with a personal touch.

Originally founded in 1927 and led by Dr. Robert Messinger for over three decades, the practice has built a reputation for trusted, community-focused service that continues to this day.

Medical Expertise. Personalized Care.

Under the leadership of Dr. Sylvia Qiong Chen, EyeSite Vision Center brings that legacy into the future. A former ophthalmologist in China, Dr. Chen brings advanced medical expertise to every eye exam, with specialized training in glaucoma, cataracts, dry eye, and myopia control. 

Patients of all ages, from infants to seniors, receive personalized care, modern diagnostics, and treatment plans grounded in compassion and clinical precision.
