There is more to picking out a frame besides just liking it. We help fit people with eyeglasses, following the prescriptions given by their optometrist or ophthalmologist. We take into account a person's facial features, occupation, habits and prescription to assist them in choosing the best eyeglass frames, lenses and lens coatings to fit their need.

Before you see a doctor, we’ll perform a few tests to get a clear picture of your vision and eye health. One of those tests involves an autorefractor that measures the refractive error in your eyes to determine your prescription. Using diagnostic technology is important to us in helping to preserve your eyesight! Our state of the art equipment helps provide the highest quality vision and eye care.

Why do we wink?
Because the act is so subtle and takes on many meanings, the origin of winking is unknown.
We wink to show affection, to spark a laugh, to share an inside secret and for so many other reasons. We wink in person, in emails and in text messages.
The Winking Face emoticon was approved as part of Unicode 6.0 in 2010 and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015, according to Emojipedia.org (yes, that’s a thing).
How we wink (the science behind the wink)
The act of winking involves contracting the orbicularis oculi muscle, which receives signals from the facial motor nucleus. If the connection between these two hubs is too weak, then no amount of practice will pay off with a successful wink — it’s impossible.
Not everyone can wink, and some people can wink with one eye and not the other.
Being able to wink with one eye but not the other is referred to as ocular dominance.
How does ocular dominance differ from writing with a dominant hand or walking with a dominant foot? The two are governed by different parts of the brain. Your ocular dominance is governed by the part of the brain that controls your field of vision.
