Selling glasses and contact lenses is secondary to developing a lifelong relationship with our patients as their eye doctors. Whether it is a child’s first eye health examination or a senior citizen who is coming back to us following cataract surgery, all our patients are given individual attention to ensure we are able to educate them and assist them in managing the health of their eyes.
