Services
Comprehensive Eye Exams
Our thorough eye exams use advanced diagnostics to assess vision clarity and detect early signs of diseases like glaucoma and macular degeneration. We evaluate prescription needs, eye health, and risk factors for patients aged 3 and older. Annual exams are recommended for children and adults with existing eye conditions, while healthy adults should visit every 1-2 years.
Pediatric Eye Care
Specialized exams for children ensure proper visual development critical for learning and sports performance. We screen for common issues like lazy eye and focusing problems, offering early intervention with glasses or vision therapy. Annual checkups are recommended for school-aged children to support academic success and detect undiagnosed vision impairments.
Emergency Eye Care
We provide urgent treatment for sudden vision changes, eye injuries, and painful conditions. Services include foreign object removal, chemical exposure management, and evaluation of flashes/floaters. Patients receive prompt in-office care or coordinated specialist referrals for complex cases like retinal detachment or severe trauma requiring surgical intervention.
Lid Lesion Removal
Our clinic evaluates and treats benign eyelid growths like styes, chalazions, and skin tags. Dr. Rice performs in-office removal of non-cancerous lesions causing discomfort or cosmetic concern. Suspicious growths are biopsied and referred to specialists, ensuring proper diagnosis while maintaining eyelid function and appearance.
Aesthetic Treatments
We offer FDA-approved wrinkle reduction injections, professional skincare regimens, and Upneeq eyelid lift drops. These non-surgical treatments address aging signs around the eyes, improving appearance and vision clarity for droopy eyelids. Services combine medical expertise with cosmetic enhancement for natural-looking results.

Report
I love Dr. Rice and his entire staff! They go out of their way to make you feel like family and to make sure all of your vision care needs are met! I am always surprised at how quickly I get my new glasses, and I am always pleased that the girls help me pick out a frame that is complimentary. I am a customer for life!
