Comprehensive eye care and full service treatment and management of eye conditions from a locally-ow

Hurrying with your eyelash curler? Take your time, here’s why: One teen scratched her cornea in the rush. Slow down, use a well-lit mirror, and never share eye makeup. Your eyes are worth the extra care.

Think eye injuries only happen at work or in sports? Many ocular injuries we treat happen at home. Cooking, cleaning, yardwork, and pet mishaps are some of the culprits. A little eye protection (in the form of safety glasses) goes a long way.

Hey parents: Make a comprehensive eye exam with your optometrist a high priority on your back-to-school “to-do” list. Your student needs to see their best in order to learn their best. Call us today to schedule your appointment!

A college student who wears contact lenses learned the hard way: Always wash your hands Very Thoroughly after handling hot peppers -- especially before touching your eyes or contact lenses. Capsaicin and eyes don’t mix!

Dog zoomies + A flying toy = Unexpected eye injury. One of our patients recently got a burst blood vessel and a black eye from a ricocheting chew toy. Love your pets, but protect your eyes.

07/25/2025

An estimated 2.4 million eye injuries happen each year in the U.S. -- and 90% of them are preventable! Don’t be a statistic: Protective eyewear is your best defense. Do you own a pair of safety glasses yet?

Enjoying the long, lazy days of summer? Whether you’re sitting by the pool, lunching outside, or hitting the beach, make sure you wear high-quality sunglasses that block 100% of the sun’s damaging UV rays to protect your vision so you can see your best for years to come.

07/21/2025

Did you know? Kids’ eyes are even more vulnerable to UV damage than adult eyes, yet most under age 10 rarely wear proper sunglasses. Let’s change that. Start them young with real UV protection -- and help your child enjoy a lifetime of healthy vision.

07/18/2025

Feeling overwhelmed by all the choices and coatings available in sunglasses? We’re here to help! Our expert team can help you find the perfect pair that fits your style and protects your vision from the sun’s damaging UV rays.

07/17/2025

Cloudy out? Your eyes still need UV protection. UV rays cut through clouds like a hot knife through butter. Wear your sunglasses even on overcast days -- your eyes will thank you later.

07/15/2025

The bigger the sunglasses, the better the eye protection. Large frames and wrap-around styles help protect not just your eyes, but the delicate skin around them, too. Bonus: You’ll look like a movie star. Need a new pair? Come visit our optical department!

Buying sunglasses online or at a dollar store might seem like a deal -- but your eyes may pay the price. If the lenses don’t block 100% of UV rays, they’re not worth it. UV exposure contributes to sight-stealing diseases such as macular degeneration and cataracts. Don’t risk it!
