Dr. Kara is awesome! The service is great and Dr. Kara is very thorough. The collection of glasses is very nice- a real time saver. Alex provides some great suggestions for eye glases. The whole experience is top notch!

They generously repaired my glasses even though I didn’t buy them from that store. Only cost $10 for replacement nose pads, arm straightening, new arm pads, and a bottle of lens cleaner. Extremely good service, recommend to everyone

They have a good selection of frames, for a wide face. Courteous and friendly, very clear at communication, customer service better than an eye-doctor.

I've been going here for years, and I can't recommend them enough. Staff and doctors are kind, helpful, and personable, always willing to take extra time to listen to your questions and explain things in detail. Staff have never pressured me to buy glasses here - except I always do since the glasses-buying experience here is way better than anywhere else.

Family Eye Care

Regardless of your age or physical health, it’s important for your entire family to have regular eye exams at .

Ask Our Doctors a Question...

What is the examination like to determine if someone has dry eyes?

A large part of the examination is finding out what the patient is experiencing and determining the type of dry eye causing the symptoms. We examine the surface of the eye under a microscope to look at the quantity and the quality of the tear film. Additionally, we examine the eyelids and the glands inside the eyelids to insure they are healthy. More about Dry Eyes...

What are the typical treatments for dry eyes?

There are a wide range of treatments ranging from over the counter products to specialty laser procedures. Many times using artificial tears and vitamin supplements can help boost the tear film. There are prescription eye drops that can aid in tear production as well as laser procedures for patients with more advanced dry eye. More about Dry Eyes...

Are there any recommendations to help people avoid dry eye?

Of course – stay hydrated and making sure you consume enough water each day. Additionally, take breaks from your computer and smart phone. I recommend the 20/20/20 Rule – take a 20 second break every 20 minutes and look 20 feet away and blink your eyes. Finally, wearing sunglasses is critical to protecting the surface of the eye and the eyelids from UV exposure. More about Dry Eyes...
