It’s Halloween month again! Have a spooky time but dont spook us with those costume contact lenses. They can cause real problems!

Danger: Colored Contacts Can Harm Your Eyes Wearing colored contact lenses without a prescription may seem harmless, but beware: Costume contacts can severely damage your eyes and even cause blindness if they're not fitted by an eye specialist.

Our office will be closed due to the weather tomorrow, Tuesday, March 14. If you have a scheduled appointment, our staff should be reaching out to reschedule your appointment. If you have not heard from us, please feel free to call at 508-421-2010.
