Services
Cataract Surgery
Our cataract surgery removes clouded lenses and implants advanced intraocular lenses using minimally invasive techniques. Patients benefit from improved vision quality with options for monofocal, toric, or multifocal implants. The outpatient procedure takes about 15 minutes per eye with rapid recovery times, allowing patients to resume normal activities quickly while experiencing enhanced visual clarity.
Eye Exams
Comprehensive eye exams assess visual acuity, eye health, and potential disease indicators. Our optometrists use specialized instruments to detect early signs of glaucoma, macular degeneration, and systemic conditions like diabetes. The evaluation includes pupil dilation for internal eye examination and personalized recommendations for vision correction or medical treatment based on individual findings.
Optical Shop
Our optical departments offer premium eyewear selections including designer frames, prescription sunglasses, and specialty lenses. Patients receive personalized fitting assistance and expert guidance on lens options like progressive, transition, and polarized lenses. We combine fashion-forward selections with functional eyewear solutions for all ages and lifestyles while maximizing vision insurance benefits.
Dry Eye Treatment
We provide comprehensive management for chronic dry eye conditions using advanced diagnostic tools and customized treatment plans. Options include artificial tears, prescription medications, lacrimal plugs, and OptiLight by Lumenis therapy. Our specialists identify underlying causes to develop effective long-term solutions that improve ocular surface health and patient comfort.
PRK Surgery
PRK laser vision correction reshapes the cornea to reduce dependency on glasses or contacts. This alternative to LASIK suits patients with thin corneas or active lifestyles. The procedure corrects refractive errors through precise tissue removal, offering long-term visual improvement with minimal recovery time compared to traditional surgical methods.

Report
I have been a customer for years but this will be my last time here. I broke my glasses 3 weeks ago and went here for a prescription and new glasses. I was told it shouldn't be more than a week on the glasses. 7 business days later couldn't reach anyone on the phone to confirm they were ready despite calling 3-4 times. I went into the office and was told they just received the frames and it should only take a day to put the lenses in. 3 days later I still hadn't heard back so I called and managed to get hold of someone.
This person told me they just received the glasses and they had to go through some sort of QA process and it would be another business day. They're not open over the weekend so it's another 3 days from my point of view. I don't appreciate being given the run-around and will be taking by business elsewhere going forward.
