Services
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye examinations assess vision quality, eye health, and potential disease indicators. Using advanced diagnostic technology, we evaluate refractive errors, screen for glaucoma and cataracts, and monitor overall ocular health. The exams accommodate all ages, from children's vision development assessments to specialized care for age-related conditions, ensuring early detection and appropriate treatment planning.
Cataract Surgery
We offer modern cataract removal procedures using state-of-the-art surgical techniques. Our board-certified ophthalmologist performs intraocular lens replacements to restore clear vision, with options for premium multifocal lenses. The process includes pre-operative evaluations, surgical intervention, and comprehensive post-operative care to ensure optimal visual outcomes and patient comfort throughout recovery.
Glaucoma Treatment
Our glaucoma management combines early detection through regular eye pressure measurements with personalized treatment plans. We employ medicated eye drops, laser therapy, and surgical interventions when necessary to control intraocular pressure. Continuous monitoring and tailored approaches help preserve vision while minimizing disease progression in this chronic condition.
Optical Shop
The on-site optical shop provides premium eyeglass frames and lenses from trusted brands like Adidas, Guess, and Nautica. Our opticians assist with frame selection, lens customization, and proper fitting. We offer photochromic lenses, progressive designs, and specialized coatings while accepting major vision insurance plans and providing expert dispensing services for optimal visual correction.
Retinal Disease Management
Specialized treatment for retinal conditions including diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration. We utilize advanced imaging technology for early detection and implement laser treatments, intraocular injections, and referral networks for complex cases. Regular monitoring and intervention strategies aim to maintain vision quality and prevent severe vision loss in patients with chronic retinal disorders.

I was recommended here for pediatric eye care for my two year old and gave it a shot after hearing horror stories about a different practice in my area. My son has a language disorder (MERLD) and although it's not a diagnosis heard of often I briefly explained and every person that helped us was patient and considerate. We found out that my son has astigmatism and Dr. Hulesberg was phenomenal!

This place is closed more than it's open. The staff is rude and I find this place really unprofessional and it takes awhile for you to actually get an eye exam. The only reason I go here is for my daughter because he's one of the only pediatric eye doctor's in my area. I'm just trying to pick up my daughter's prescription so I can get it filled at another place. I'm still waiting for my glasses to be ready it's been over a month since I ordered them.

Dr. Hulseberg is the best eye doctor/surgeon in the area. Sometimes the wait for new patients can be a year (like it was for my husband & me when we moved here from another state) but he is well worth the wait. My entire family love him. He's so knowledgeable & up on the latest while being caring & kind. Wish I was able to give 10 stars!

I received excellent care. Dr Hulseberg was polite, explained everything very well and provided ample opportunity for questions. My only complaint is that the wait time was a little long but overall worth it. Thank you.
