Comprehensive Eye Health Exams

The foundation of good vision starts with our comprehensive eye health exams. These exams are so much more than just a simple vision screening and ensure your eyes are functioning properly and to the best of their ability. And thanks to our advanced equipment, we’re able to identify signs of potential threats to your sight long before you notice them and provide you with an updated vision prescription.

Pediatric Eye Health Exams

For the youngest eyes in your family, Bard Optical is happy to provide pediatric eye health exams. Since children’s eyes are constantly growing and changing, we check to make sure they’re developing correctly. We’ll also look for indicators of conditions and illnesses that are more common in children.

Contact Lens

Contact Lens Exams

Contact lenses require both a precise fit and prescription for full effectiveness, since they rest directly on your eyes. During our contact lens exams, we ensure your contacts will fit comfortably and help you see clearly. We also offer several specialty lens options that can be used to correct different types of eye conditions.
