Hey Ellijay friends and family.... Let's join forces to spread kindness! Right now many people in our community are struggling, maybe even your own neighbors. Wondering where their next meal is coming from should never be a concern in these times yet they are very real for many. Let's work together to take these worries away and inspire positive change. Ellijay Eye Care will be collecting non-perishable food items to be taken to the Gilmer County food bank. They are in need of canned vegetables, condiments, sugar, crackers, canned meats such as chicken, tuna, and chili to name a few. They are also in need of toiletries items like hand soap, toilet paper, laundry detergent, etc. They do ask that no glass containers be brought in. They also collect food for pet owners who are in need. Dry or wet food is accepted. Please help us help our community and be the change we wish to see. Stop by the office if you have any questions or want to drop off donations.

This World Sight Day, October 8th we're reminding our patients and community:
healthy eyes = healthier you.
Annual eye exams do more than update just your prescription — they help protect against vision issues and can detect health concerns early. Prioritize eye health so you can focus on the moments that matter most. Call us to book your appointment today."

Mirror, mirror on the wall!!!! Which color is the fairest of them all!

Mirrored sunglasses offer several benefits, primarily centered around enhanced vision and style. They reduce glare by reflecting light away from the eyes, improving visual comfort in bright conditions and potentially increasing safety during outdoor activities. Additionally, the reflective coating can provide a degree of privacy by obscuring the wearer's eyes. They also come in a wide array of styles, adding a fashionable element to their functionality.

We would like to express our sincere appreciation to the numerous individuals who attended the launch of our innovative laser treatment for dry eyes at our office. The significant turnout, despite the unfavorable weather conditions, underscores the discomfort and frustration that dry eyes can cause. The event provided a unique opportunity for learning, refreshments, and a live demonstration, which we hope made attending worthwhile. To remain informed about our upcoming events and to learn more about our pioneering treatment for dry eyes, we invite you to follow our office. If you are seeking a solution to alleviate dry eyes and reduce your dependence on eye drops, please contact our office to arrange a consultation.
