At Manchester Family Vision Center, Dr. Daniel Mersch provides medical and routine vision examinations for adults and children.

Our eye doctor specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the eye and provides well vision exams. Treatments may include prescription of medicine, glasses, or contact lenses. Regular eye examinations are an important part of your preventive health care. Children should have their first eye exam at 6 months of age, again at age 3 and every year into adulthood. The simple vision screening provided by your pediatrician may not detect all eye issues, and early detection is vital. Eye disease and vision issues are far more easily corrected prior to age 9, the age at which the brain has developed completely. Rubbing your eyes, squinting, headaches, changes in vision or difficulty with focusing within arm’s length are indicators to visit your optometrist. For those who wear contact lenses our optometrists recommend annual exams. Vision exams are recommended every two years for adults until age 60 unless you have health issues which require more frequent visits. After age 60, annual exams are generally recommended. At Manchester Family Vision Center we carry a large selection of eyeglass frames from designer to budget. We are certain that we can help you pick out the best choice for you whether your glasses are a necessity or an accessory. Eyeglasses have become a fashion statement! Our opticians are trained to recommend the best lens solution for your specific needs. Lens technology is ever changing and our opticians pride themselves in keeping up with the latest improvements in the industry to offer you not only eyewear that looks great but also gives you the best vision possible.

Are contact lenses worth it? If you’re looking for convenience and comfort, we say, yes!

Contact lenses offer a wider field of view than glasses, and come in a variety of styles to accommodate different vision concerns and lifestyles. Plus, if you have a high prescription, contact lenses can actually offer sharper, clearer vision than glasses.

If you're interested in exploring your contact lens options, come see us for a comprehensive eye exam.

Dealing with skepticism over new recommendations from your eye doctor, like using a warm compress, is normal. 🤔

A warm compress can be a game-changer for relieving dryness, reducing eye fatigue, and improving overall eye health. It can enhance blood circulation around the eyes, ease muscle tension, and improve eye comfort.

Here's how to use a warm compress:

💧 Soak a clean cloth in warm water.
🧼 Gently squeeze out excess water.
😌 Close your eyes and place the warm cloth over them for 5-10 minutes.
⏰ Repeat this process several times a day for optimal results.

If you have any questions, contact us!
