REVIEWS
I went to the place to do contact lenses exam, and the same day they gave me trials and placed the order. The boxes came very quickly and the price was affordable. Not to mention, they also give me a rebate for my year supply! Luciana, I really appreciate your help.
Dr. Edwards and the staff are very polite and professional. Dr. Edwards takes her time answering all of your questions and provides you with great feedback. They care about their patients and each one of my visits were smooth and on time. I would recommend anyone to see Dr.Edwards and to come to this location.
The best optical you can possibly attend to! It’s been so many years of great service. Ana is my go-to person! Always so sweet, hands-on in picking out the right pair of glasses for me, personality on point! Absolutely recommend to anyone in the area!
Great location! Staff is super friendly! From the minute I made my appointment, to walking in (being offered coffee), to seeing the doctor, picking out my frames and contact lenses order, to leaving – Hillary was great!
Ana Branco made my experience picking out eye glass frames so enjoyable! She is extremely friendly and genuinely cares about the people she is helping. She definitely gets 5 stars!
Staff was very pleasant when I walked in to make an appointment. On my appointment, I was greeted by a friendly staff. My eye exam went smoothly. Ordered glasses and contact lenses in less then an an hour and half. Looking forward to my new glasses.
They are just amazing. Very friendly. They make me laugh a lot, all of them are great but the Doctor was 100%. My first time here and definitely will go there as many times as I have to! #greatjob
Love this place! They are all so friendly and welcoming. Ana is always so personable and helps me with anything I need!! Would highly recommend!
Me and my wife came for an eye exam and it was fast and they were very respectful. Ana Was very Helpful.
Talk about service and awesome pricing. Went there for an eye exam and came out with a pair of glasses and a few sets of contacts. Best part, I just had to pay $50. They worked with my insurance and made it all happen.
Importance of Eyecare
Normal Eyes
This image represents an eye that can see up to 20/20. You may notice that it is almost perfectly round allowing the image to appear correctly on the focal point of the eye.
Diabetic Retinopathy
Anyone with diabetes is at risk to develop Diabetic Retinopathy. High blood sugar associated with diabetes can damage blood vessels in the retina causing deposits to form blind spots and floaters in your field of vision. Early symptoms of Diabetic Retinopathy include double vision and difficulty reading or doing close work.
Farsightedness
Also, know as Hyperopia. Distant objects are clear and close-up objects appear blurry. This condition is the result of an eye that is too short or a cornea that lacks the necessary refractive power to focus.
Astigmatism
Astigmatism is a vision condition that causes blurred vision due either to the irregular shape of the cornea, the clear front cover of the eye or sometimes the curvature of the lens inside the eye. An irregular shaped cornea or lens prevents light from focusing properly on the retina.
Nearsightedness
Also known as Myopia, causes poor distance vision. If your eye is too long (front to back), or if your cornea has too much-focusing power, images focus in front of the retina.
Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a specific pattern of optic nerve damage and visual field loss caused by a number of different eye diseases which can affect the eye. Most, but not all of these diseases are characterized by elevated intramuscular pressure, which is not the disease itself, but the most important risk factor for the development of Glaucoma.
