About Us
Family EyeCare is committed to helping each patient enjoy an uncompromising quality of life.
That's why we provide you with a comprehensive eye health examination, a thorough explanation of your condition, answer your questions and prescribe the latest eye care technology and treatments. For your added convenience, we also feature a professional, high quality yet affordable optical dispensary.
Your sight and overall health of your eyes are precious. Take time to guard them carefully. Our doctor will examine for the presence of eye disease such as cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic, retinopathy, floaters and detached retina. As always, we will discuss treatment options for each patient. Steel and other foreign bodies can be easily and painlessly removed right in our office with out a trip to the emergency room.
