What we do

Eye care for the whole family

Comprehensive eye exams

An updated prescription plus a full check of your eye health — not just a quick vision test.

Contact lens exams & fittings

Fittings for new wearers and prescription renewals, with time to answer your questions.

Medical eye care

Dry eye, eye infections, red or irritated eyes — seen and treated, often billed to your medical insurance.

Diabetic eye exams

A yearly dilated exam to catch changes early. We can share your results with your primary care doctor.

Kids' eye exams

Gentle, friendly exams so little ones can see the board — and enjoy it.

Living with diabetes? Your eyes need a yearly check.

Diabetes can affect the eyes long before you notice a change in your vision. A dilated exam once a year is the simplest way to stay ahead of it — and it's often covered by medical insurance.
