Pediatric Eye Health Exams

To protect your child’s eyes and care for them as they grow, we offer pediatric eye exams. These exams are critical for detecting common vision conditions that develop at a young age and help us get your child in the proper eyewear as soon as possible.

No optometrist on site right now but customer service was great from start to finish. The accepted my prescription from the vision venter at Walmart and my state insurance through meridian. The glasses I got were even cute and up to date style not just basic wire frames.
