Eye Exams
Our comprehensive eye exams assess visual acuity, eye health, and potential vision disorders using advanced diagnostic technology. These evaluations detect early signs of ocular diseases like glaucoma and macular degeneration while determining precise corrective lens prescriptions. Our optometrists perform thorough assessments for patients of all ages, from children's vision development to senior eye health monitoring.
Contact Lens Fittings
We specialize in fitting all contact lens types including toric lenses for astigmatism, multifocal designs for presbyopia, and rigid gas permeable lenses for keratoconus. Our technicians use corneal topography mapping to ensure optimal lens alignment while maintaining eye health. We provide trial lenses and follow-up evaluations to guarantee comfortable, clear vision.
Emergency Eye Care
Our practice addresses urgent eye conditions like chemical burns, foreign body removal, sudden vision loss, and acute infections. We maintain immediate access to diagnostic equipment for corneal injuries and retinal assessments. Our staff prioritizes same-day appointments for eye emergencies requiring prompt medical attention.
Pediatric Eye Care
We conduct age-appropriate vision screenings for infants through teenagers, focusing on developmental milestones and learning-related vision skills. Our specialists identify amblyopia, strabismus, and focusing disorders that could impact academic performance. We offer specialized testing for children with special needs or developmental delays.
Sports Eyewear
Our sports vision specialists recommend protective eyewear meeting ANSI Z87.1 safety standards for various athletic activities. We offer prescription sports goggles, impact-resistant polycarbonate lenses, and anti-fog coatings for competitive athletes. Our fittings ensure secure, comfortable wear for high-impact sports and outdoor activities.

Update 12/28/19 - most importantly service is consistent. People are really nice, visit was simple, and I always find glasses I like. Today was now my third visit and each eye doctor visit and glass purchase has been pleasant. And also bought a groupon which is a good deal. My vision insurance only takes contacts or glasses so this deal helps me out when I need both on some years. Original review:
Fast simple and easy. Really nice people. Bought a groupon to check out to place. Knowing it was it Roslyn I was expecting snooty people but actually they exceeded my expectation and was extremely

I've always wanted prescription sunglasses but never got around to purchasing them. Gary at The Roslyn Eye Center made that happen for me. I live in Florida and contacted him, sent my prescription and trusted him to pick out the right frames for my face. They arrived today, and I couldn't be happier! (see picture) He's awesome, and I highly recommend dealing with such a professional company.

Got my new glasses here last week. They could not be more helpful, from moment I walked through their door. The owner Gary happened to be the person who helped me select the perfect pair for my face. I couldn't be happier!
