Services
Comprehensive eye exams
Our comprehensive eye exams utilize advanced diagnostic tools like OCT and retinal imaging to assess vision health and detect conditions like glaucoma. Patients receive personalized evaluations for glasses, contact lenses, and underlying health issues affecting eye health. The exams include visual acuity testing, intraocular pressure measurement, and retinal analysis to ensure complete eye care.
Scleral lenses
Custom scleral lenses vault the cornea to correct vision for keratoconus patients, offering clearer sight than traditional contacts or glasses. These large-diameter lenses provide comfort and stability for irregular corneas. Our specialists fit and adjust lenses using ocular surface profiler technology for optimal results in vision restoration.
Glaucoma diagnosis
We employ Humphrey visual field analyzers and OCT imaging to detect glaucoma through optic nerve and peripheral vision assessments. Early diagnosis prevents vision loss through medication or surgical referrals. Regular monitoring tracks disease progression and treatment effectiveness using precise diagnostic metrics.
Contact lens fitting
Our practice specializes in fitting standard, cosmetic, and hard-to-fit contact lenses, including RGP and scleral options. Technicians use corneal topography to ensure proper lens alignment and comfort. Patients receive training on insertion, removal, and care for safe, effective vision correction.
Optical dispensary
Our optical boutique offers over 3,000 prescription lenses and designer frames, with same-day glasses available through our in-office lab. Certified opticians assist with frame selection, lens customization, and adjustments. We provide durable eyewear solutions for vision correction, sports protection, and sunwear needs.

Had two of my children eye exam here & something didn't feel right. The atmosphere was off & it looked run down. I doubt it's up to code as well. Long story short something felt off like he didn't do the eye exam properly. Well, I was right he was off on my sons & daughters axis amongst other things like prescribing the wrong prescription. I suggest not doing business here & paying out of pocket or look elsewhere in your insurance network.

Doctor offered a discount on service but did not give it once he found out my husband was in immigration court. He said he "did not want to help him too much". Very rude and unprofessional

Loved this place, used zocdoc to book my appointment. As someone who has had a bad experience with eye care places, this place made me feel comfortable as soon as I walked to the door. The staff is super nice and friendly. Wait time was not long at all, I was there maybe an hour or less. All my questions were answered with care, which I appreciate so much.
