SPECIALIZED EYE CARE FOR YOU
Even without knowing the term “dry eye” or “Dry Eye Syndrome“, if you suffer from it, then you are all too familiar with the soreness, discomfort, and even the constant misery that can come with dry eyes.
We use the most advanced diagnostic equipment and tools to quickly and accurately pinpoint the cause and type of dry eye problem you’re suffering from. We don’t just throw any old drops at you either. We provide custom, tailored treatment plans designed to maximize the relief of your dry eye symptoms AND treat the underlying cause of your discomfort.
Low vision is considered significant vision impairment that usually results from serious eye disease or an injury. The vision loss, which is characterized by either reduced visual acuity (to 20/70 or worse) or reduced field of view, can’t be fully corrected with glasses, contact lenses, medication or surgery.
A Low Vision Eye Exam is different than a regular eye exam.
Because myopia is very often progressive, distance vision continues to get worse and worse. This means your child constantly needs an updated stronger prescription and new glasses or contacts. The progression of myopia often outpaces your child’s eye exams. Since learning is by and large visual, myopia negatively affects your child’s school performance. What’s more, the rate of progression of myopia directly correlates with the risk levels of developing vision-threatening eye diseases.
We offer everything from designer brands to affordable but classic frames so our patients have a wealth of choices and prices.
Learn about eye exams, what’s involved in a comprehensive exam, and special considerations for kids and contacts.
Whether you wear daily, weekly or monthly disposables, or conventional lenses, check out our selection of lenses that fit your needs.
Wow, best customer service I have ever had. Lost my glasses at a mud run. Every eye glass place i phoned said it would take 10 to 14 days to get. They got them to me in 7 hours. So thankful. Great job.
Very helpful and friendly. Dr. Pambrum is an amazing optometrist. Highly recommend!

Q&A | Dry Eye with Our Doctors
Dry eye can cause quite a few symptoms, anything from the eyes actually feeling dry to the eyes watering often, or having a burning, itchy, or irritated feeling. One of the most common symptoms is the eyes feeling gritty or like something is in your eye. Most people will often experience blurred vision since the tears, which comprise the outermost surface of the eye, are unstable.
