Age-related macular degeneration (ARMD/AMD) is the deterioration of the central part of the retina, called the macula, which is crucial for central vision. This part of our eye is responsible for seeing fine details and colors, which are essential for activities like driving, recognizing faces, reading, and watching TV.

The first symptoms of macular degeneration you might experience include:
⚫ Blind or dark spots in the center of your vision that do not move
👁️Decreased or blurry vision
🌈 Different color perception (rare)
〰️ Lines appearing wavy

Think you may be experiencing ARMD/AMD symptoms? Schedule an eye exam today to get checked!

Our Story

Dr. Charles "Chuck" Knudson graduated from Southern College of Optometry in 1991. He became a partner/owner of the Optometry Group in Memphis, TN and practiced there for 7 years. In 1998, he became President & CEO of Vision Care Specialists, Inc in Denver, CO, with 14 doctors and multiple locations. In 2006, Dr. Knudson and his family moved to Charlotte and joined EyeOptix Vision and Laser Centers. In December, 2007, Dr. Knudson helped EyeOptix open their Ballantyne and Uptown offices and has been seeing patients there to the present. In 2011, Dr. Knudson offered to buy the Ballantyne location from EyeOptix so that he could provide more focus and care for the patients he had come to know in Ballantyne and the surrounding areas. August 2011 brought that exciting possibility to a reality. Dr. Knudson is the North Carolina State Executive for a practice improvement group called OD Excellence. As the practice continued to grow, he brought on Dr. Kimberly (Mark) Douglas as a full-time associate in April of 2013. She is a 2005 graduate from UNC-Chapel Hill and 2009 graduate from UMSL College of Optometry. She has been a great asset to our practice. As Carolinas Vision Group has grown even more, an additional Doctor was added to the practice in the summer of 2017. Dr. Steven Kotsokalis is a residency-trained optometrist born and raised in Charlotte, NC. Dr. Kotsokalis graduated from North Carolina State University in 2012 and Pennsylvania College of Optometry in 2016. It has been an honor having him join our team. Our last big change came in November of 2017, as we opened our second office location. Now, open in Rea Farms we are able to service even more patients! We are so exited to see where this journey continues to lead us, and were thrilled to have you be a part of it.
