Our office is equipped with the most sophisticated, advanced, computerized equipment in the world in order to achieve the best vision Care for you. Our primary concern is not only the elimination of your existing vision problems, but is the ultimate goal of the prevention of future eyesight problems.

Our recommendation for you is based on what we would recommend for a member of our own family under similar circumstances. After your examination is completed, we will discuss your eyes' present status and the most satisfactory vision care plans for you. Since we use only the highest quality materials available to make your eyewear, you will receive maximum long range benefits.

We pride our selves in making your vision care a pleasant experience and we are certain you will recognize and appreciate our "extra care" approach.

"We all depend upon our five senses to gather information. Of all the senses, sight is by far the most important. The eyes are the dominant sense organ. It has been estimated that 80% of all new information to the brain comes from the eyes. Inside the eye, the retina contains 137 million nerve endings called rods and cones which send messages to the brain. At any one moment, these cells are capable of handling 1.5 million messages at the same time."

"If you work with a computer your eyes can make nearly 30,000 adjustments per day. In fact, in an average day, your eyes and visual system expend more energy (oxygen, nutrients, etc) than your leg muscles would have if they had walked 50 miles. Proper Eyecare-It's All About Energy Conservation!"

"Prior to the 20th century the human visual system utilized 30% of all the total daily energy expended by the average person. Today, due to the great increase in time spent and doing hobbies close to our eyes and with the inventions of indoor lighting and computers, our eyes are used differently. They now expend more than 30% of our daily energy."

"This increased use of available energy accounts for short attention span, slower reading, poor concentration and mental fatigue. When everything is at it's best you will have the maximum energy for doing whatever you choose to do for the longest possible period of time-free of eyestrain, eye fatigue, headaches, etc and be able to use your eyes at the fastest possible speed in reading or observing. Improper prescriptions, poor quality lenses, improper reflections, lack of protection from ultraviolet light, etc. contribute to making this challenge even greater. The end result is stress- visual, mental and physical stress. The eyes require energy-conserve it with proper Eyecare!"

Dr. William D. Harrison

Regular eyecare is important because many eye problems are hidden until they become major problems. Stress impacts our eyes, mind and body adversely within a short period of time. Periodic eye examinations sometimes reveal the first signs of sight-threatening diseases. But most often, regular eye exams can pinpoint and correct common vision problems like refractive errors. Anytime we can detect an eye condition early, the results of treatment is always better. We sincerely believe that one of the most important services we offer is a plan for preventive vision care. Therefore we call all patients at periodical intervals for preventative examinations.
