Meet Our Eye Doctors

Switalski Gold Divider 2020

Our Eye care professionals understand how the human eye works. They also deeply understand how diseases and conditions affect your vision, often without obvious symptoms. Additionally, they are skilled in understanding how age and risk factors affect vision over time and the benefits of various vision correction options, such as eyeglasses and contact lenses.

Our optometrists dedicate time to thoroughly explaining the findings of your eye exam, discussing your choices, and paying attention to your vision care needs. We believe in fostering a lasting partnership for optimal eye health, so we welcome your questions and value the sharing of your health information, which is crucial for the effective monitoring, diagnosis, and treatment of potential eye issues.
