Open for more than two decades, Edgewood Eye Center provides patients with outstanding optical services and eye care. Our doctors and support staff have more than 40 years of experience and a reputation to match. You can rest easy, as you're in capable and caring hands.
We have the latest in optometry equipment and keep pace with the latest information and eye care practices. We also make it a point to put a bit of cheer in the air and keep things light. Healthcare is too often stuffy and impersonal. Our feeling is it is possible to be professional while being personal and lighthearted.
