Patient Service Specialists
Greeting you at the front desk with a smile
These team members are vital to our business operations. They manage the appointment schedules, supervise our electronic medical records, file insurance claims and much more.
Clinical Technicians
Assisting the doctor with all aspects of your eye care
From pre-testing to scribing to optical dispensing, these eye care professionals are an important part of our eye care services. Clinical technicians are fully trained to perform advanced medical testing such as retinal photography, visual field analysis, OCT scans, corneal topography and autorefraction.
Contact Lens Technicians
Specializing in the latest advancements in contact lens technology
Our contact lens staff assists the doctor with new fittings and trains patients to insert, remove and care for their lenses. We participate in clinical research trials to test the newest contact lens designs such as new more comfortable polymers, more stable correction of astigmatism and advanced multifocal lenses for presbyopia.
Opticians
Specializing in fitting your eyewear
Our opticians understand both the fashion aspect of your eyeglasses as well as the technical aspects of your prescription. They will guide you to the best frame choice for your personal style and the best lenses for your visual needs. We offer the latest technology in lenses such as custom designed no-line multifocals and lighter and thinner materials. Our new premium antireflective lenses are anti-scratch, anti-static and easy to keep clean.
Lab Technicians
Making your eyeglasses lenses in our onsite lab
Our lab technicians use advanced lens surfacing and finishing equipment to grind your prescription into your lenses and then cut the lens blanks to precisely fit your frame. The computerized lens making process uses diamond cutting tools and automatic polishing pads to produce a perfect lens. Making glasses in our own lab allows us to provide higher quality lenses and very fast service.
