Family Optometry - Peru

Family Optometry - Peru Family Optometry proudly serves Peru and the greater Miami County area with quality eye care service

Family Optometry was founded by Dr. Robert Hutchinson in Marion in 1976, and was known as Marion Family Optometrists. In 1994, he began an office in Wabash, known as Family Optometry. In early 2015, the Marion office also assumed the Family Optometry name. Dr. Hutchinson operated both the Marion and Wabash offices by himself until Dr. Dale joined him in 2007. From the beginning, Family Optometry was guided by Dr. Hutchinson’s convictions that people are more important than money, that all patients deserve to be treated like family, and that the office should be a fun place for both staff and patients. While Dr. Hutchinson was sadly lost to cancer in August 2014, Family Optometry continues to operate upon those principles he valued. In September 2014, Dr. Ashley Yearling joined Dr. Dale, and together, they remain committed to providing caring, affordable, high quality eye care for families in the Marion, Peru, and Wabash communities. In August 2015, Dr. Jack Derby joined the Family, serving the Marion and Wabash locations. In September 2015, a branch in Peru was established to service the greater Miami County area with quality eye care and affordable eye wear.

10 YEARS! We've loved working and growing in this community! We've been here long enough to see our toddler patients turn into teenagers. We are grateful for each and every patient that keeps our office going, and to those that have sent us a card, brought us coffee or treats, or offered us encouragement. We're not perfect, but we're always doing our absolute best to provide quality eye care to you.

We will be closed on Monday, September 1st, in observance of Labor Day.

Based on some calls that we have received, it appears that our number has been cloned and is being used for spam calls of some sort.

Our patients truly are the most delightful. One of them brought us this classy gal today. She said she felt like it just belonged here, and we're inclined to agree. She'll have pride of place next to Ducktor Yearling.

Merry Christmas from the Peru staff! We had a lovely little celebration at Trading House today. We are so thankful for our wonderful patients. We look forward to serving you in the new year!

(From left: Emily, Bella, Meagan, Dr. Yearling, and Cindy. And Dr. Schlegelmilch was in Wabash today, so we've included a festive recreation of her as a Christmas elf, for reference.)

Thank you for the lovely song!
