Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye exams use advanced technology to assess vision health and detect early signs of disease. We evaluate visual acuity, eye coordination, and intraocular pressure while considering patients' medical histories. These examinations help identify conditions like glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and macular degeneration in their earliest stages.
Contact Lens Fittings
We specialize in fitting all contact lens types, including specialty lenses for challenging conditions. Our process includes precise measurements and trial fittings to ensure optimal comfort and vision correction. We offer solutions for dry eyes, keratoconus, and multifocal requirements while providing ongoing lens care education.
Eye Disease Management
Our practice provides ongoing management for chronic eye conditions like glaucoma and diabetic eye disease. We combine regular monitoring with personalized treatment plans to preserve vision. Our approach includes coordinating care with other healthcare providers to address systemic factors affecting eye health.
Emergency Eye Care
We offer prompt treatment for urgent eye conditions including infections, injuries, and sudden vision changes. Our team handles foreign body removal, red eye assessments, and acute glaucoma episodes. We maintain immediate availability for patients experiencing eye trauma or sudden visual disturbances.
Myopia Control Therapy
This specialized treatment slows the progression of nearsightedness in children through evidence-based interventions. We utilize orthokeratology lenses and customized treatment plans to reduce dependency on corrective lenses. Regular follow-ups ensure optimal outcomes while maintaining ocular health.

As a physician, I appreciate when my patients see a specialist and I receive prompt and detailed communication regarding the visit. I value Dr. Lascaibar professionalism as I always get prompt and detailed notes describing the encounter. Several of my complex pediatric patients have seen Dr. Lascaibar and I always get great feedback from the mothers singing his praises, as he takes his time with the children and makes them feel comfortable.

Every step of the process of getting my exam to picking up the final product was smooth, and an overall positive experience. Definitely recommend to anyone wanting to have their eyes taken care of. Will return for future exams and eye glasses needs. Thank you kindly

I had an excellent experience with Manatee Optometry! Danet and Dr. Lascaibar are the best. Very helpful and I felt like everything was explained in a detailed manner. I will definitely be referring friends and family here. They also have a great selection of frames in the office.

Unfortunately, my claims are accurate or I would not have taken my time to post them. In addition, I attempted to discuss with you in a professional manner, but I bored you and you made the decision to terminate my call. I have been the practice administrator for a medical practice for several years now, and have been in the medical field (ophthalmology, dermatology, and plastics) for over 30+ years. We saw a new patient for an upper lid consultation at our office and to save her time, and not repeat a test she already had done at Manatee Optometry, Dr. Albert
