Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye examinations assess visual acuity, eye health, and potential vision disorders using advanced diagnostic technology. These exams detect early signs of ocular diseases like glaucoma and macular degeneration while evaluating prescription needs. The process includes detailed measurements for both glasses and contact lenses, with special attention to pediatric and geriatric vision requirements.
Contact Lens Fittings
We specialize in fitting all types of contact lenses, including specialty lenses for astigmatism and presbyopia. Our optometrists perform precise measurements to ensure proper lens fit and comfort. The service includes training on lens insertion, removal, and proper care techniques for optimal eye health and vision correction.
Eye Disease Management
Our practice diagnoses and manages chronic eye conditions such as glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration. We implement treatment plans using medicated eye drops, lifestyle recommendations, and regular monitoring to preserve vision and slow disease progression through ongoing care.
LASIK Co-Management
We provide pre-operative evaluations and post-operative care for LASIK and other refractive surgeries. This includes determining surgical candidacy, discussing vision goals, and coordinating with top laser surgeons. Our follow-up care ensures proper healing and optimal visual outcomes after the procedure.
Low Vision Services
For patients with permanent vision loss, we offer specialized assessments and adaptive solutions. This service includes magnification devices, lighting recommendations, and training to maximize remaining vision through customized rehabilitation strategies that improve daily living activities.

Love this office and their staff. Reading the previous review, look at all of her reviews, she's obviously a very miserable person. I have been a patient for over 10 years and have never experienced anything like this and we have conversations! Keep up the great work!

NO STARS! I cannot believe I witnessed with my own two eyes and ears that an EMPLOYEE (Trina) was out loud complaining about "illegals" and making other racist comments. I will NEVER bring my business here and you've lost several other customers including my family and friends. disgusting, despicable behavior for a healthcare worker or anyone for that matter! And the ladies at the counter laughing and agreeing with that crap are guilty too!

I originally reviewed this as a 1 star, i had this office mixed up with another place. Sorry about that. I actually visited here back in 2015 and they were very helpful

I was nervous about being referred out since the clinic my family had been attending decided to reduce patients and see medical cases only due to COVID. I was pleasantly surprised by advanced imagery technology, beautiful offices, friendly staff and a great doctor! Highly recommend and I can't wait to pick out my new glasses!
