Our staff is dedicated to providing this care in an atmosphere of compassion and respect.
Our mission is to remain on the forefront of eye care through continuing education, utilizing the latest state-of-the-art technology and instrumentation. We will strive to exceed your expectations with a level of service and value not often seen in health care today.
Our goal is to ensure you will return and recommend our practice to others.

Comprehensive eye health exams
|
Our technicians will start with a detailed medical history including chief complaint, blood pressure, family history, and current medications. Dr. Tim performs his own vision analysis while looking for any conditions that can affect the eye.
Our mission is to examine your eyes for any potential problem or threat to your vision. Our goal is to PREVENT any problem or threat from harming your eyes. This is obviously best accomplished while your vision is still good. |
We recommend getting your vision checked before a problem could start. The best time to come in is while your vision is still good. Problems can occur without warning. You do not want to wait untill a problem has already started. Some problems cannot be treated with glasses and cannot be improved after damage has occurred. Early detection and prevention is a better philosophy when it comes to your vision care.
We also believe it is best to have your child's vision checked as soon as possible, preferably before 3 years old. Problems can be detected even before a child can read or speak. Most problems are easier to treat when caught early. A child's vision needs to show the ability to have 20/20 in each eye by their 6th birthday and we have until 8 or 9 years old before a child's vision surpasses the critical period.
Remember: A child may not tell you he or she is having a problem simply because of not understanding vision should be better in each eye. These problems are also difficult to detect through simple observation. When a child appears to be doing well with no complaints, it is natural to think the child's eyes and vision are good. However, certain problems may persist without being detected. The best way to know for sure is to let your eye care professional evaluate your child's eyes.
Dr. Tim also takes the time to explain any condition he finds so you better understand your's or your child's vision. He will also take the time to answer all of your questions about your's or your child's eyes.
That is what separates us from all the other places. Your time is valuable and we will honor that time with a thorough eye health evaluation. Questions are encouraged. This can be an opportunity to find out what you have always wanted to know about your vision but were afraid to ask or were not given enough time to ask.
