Thorough Eye
Health Exams
During a comprehensive eye health exam, we’ll perform the tests and screenings you need to ensure that your eyes are healthy. We’ll first evaluate your eyes for disease and make sure that they’re functioning as they’re supposed to. If we come across any need for concern, we’ll provide treatment for your condition or refer you out to a local specialist if the case is especially severe or complex. After that, we’ll test your vision and update your prescription. If you wear eyewear, we’ll make sure your glasses or contacts help you see clearly.

A Large Frames
Selection
At Bard Optical, we believe that glasses are more than just a tool for vision correction, they’re also a reflection of your personality. We carry a large frames selection so that our opticians can pair everyone with the best glasses for their style, whether they have simple or designer tastes. Then, we can fit your new frames with your choice of advanced lenses in our state-of-the-art optical lab in Peoria.

Contact Lenses
The size, brand, and type of contact lens you wear will directly impact your comfort and vision correction. That’s why our optometrists in Galesburg take special care to precisely measure your eyes and prescribe you the perfect contact lenses for your needs.
