My fiance & I scheduled an annual exam today with Dr Emme Gilchrist. She was very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. By the time we finished our exam the store manager, Lee, had looked up all of our insurance information and gotten the details of our frame and lense discounts. Lee was super invested in helping us find fun frames that would look good on us. I recommend this eye-cate center with two thumbs up!

A huge thank you to Dr. Emme Gilchrist for catching a tiny hole way out at the edge of my retina that led to the discovery of more issues that needed immediate laser treatment. She recommended a full dilation exam, which I initially wanted to skip. If she hadn’t convinced me to go through with it, I probably would have needed major surgery only a few months later. Dr. Gilchrist was very thorough and the ophthalmologist she referred me to was impressed that she noticed the issue.Thank you so much, you saved me a lot of pain and time off of work!

I stopped in for a quick repair to my glasses nose paddings. The technician was super nice and immediately took action. I was there for maybe 4 minutes before she returned with not only bed nose pads, but fixed the tension in the hinges and any crookedness in my glasses free of charge. Highly recommend this business, absolutely!
