Comprehensive Eye Exams

A complete evaluation of your vision and eye health, checking over 25 aspects of your eyes front to back. More than a prescription check, it is a full medical assessment of your ocular health.

We identify the cause of your dry eye using the Oculus 5M and treat it with advanced in-office therapies including IPL, LLLT, Radiofrequency, and more. Real treatment, not drops.

Emergency Eye Care

Eye emergencies require prompt attention. We see urgent cases for foreign bodies, eye infections, sudden vision changes, trauma, and chemical exposure. Call us first.

Specialty Contact Lens

Scleral & Specialty Lenses Body: Scleral lenses for keratoconus, irregular corneas, and severe dry eye. Every specialty fitting is customized to your corneal anatomy.

Neurolens

Neurolens for Motion Sickness, Headaches & Eye Strain Body: Neurolens contoured prism lenses are highly effective at relieving motion sickness, and also help with headaches, neck pain, and dizziness caused by eye misalignment. Ask us whether Neurolens is right for you.

Medical Eye Care

Medical Eye Care Body: Diagnosis and management of glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, ocular surface disease, and other conditions. Coordinated care with your referring physicians.

Ocular Disease Management

Both optometrists and ophthalmologists treat many common types of ocular disease. However, for the best outcome, it’s important to see an eye doctor regularly. They can identify any issues before they become serious problems.

Testimonials

Light on Their Path

Doctor is very nice she will explain politely that will easy to understand all the stuff are very nice Place is clean nothing i can tell they are very nice people

Dr. Dincher was on vacation. So I had to see the doctor that was filling in for him. I went for a medical eye issue. The doctor was absolutely amazing. She was so thorough and explained everything to me. She said she needed to see me in four days and because lighthouse will not be open. She is trying to get me an appointment at her office in Trumbull. She called me when I got home to let me know that she looked at the photos of my eye and that I need to get with an ophthalmologist right away. She said that she would get me the appointment. I could not have asked for better service. The staff was very empathetic and professional. They made me feel very comfortable while I was in the office.

Dr Dincher and Kim are very knowledgeable and easy to work with.

I love all the girls. Sevvy Kim Angie. There was another young girl there the day I was there. I believe she was a technician also, but I don’t know her name. And Dr D! is always very kind.
