About
We have a wide variety of glasses, sunglasses & contact lenses to choose from. We can fill your updated prescription from your Ophthalmologist/Optometrist or you can see our doctors. We specialize in difficult prescriptions including Strabismus, Prisms, and hard to fit patients. We also provide prescription swim goggles, ski masks, and sports/safety glasses. Upon request we will make visits to Brooke Grove and Friends House and do offer a senior citizens discount.
Our on site lab means a quick turnaround for you. We can put your new prescription into your current eyewear
(if in good condition) without having to leave your eyewear for long extended periods of time.
With our two Optometrists we provide comprehensive eye exams for ages 5 and over. We offer general eye exams for contact lenses, monovision, bifocals, motor vehicle certifications and prescreening for Lasik surgery. Please feel free to call us if you have any questions.
