Our Services

Eye Exams

Tired of being rushed out the door during your eye exams? We at Fuquay Eye Care provide a comprehensive vision and eye health examination.

Dry Eye Disease

Dry eye is a common condition that occurs when the eyes don’t produce enough tears, or the tears evaporate too quickly. This can lead to discomfort, inflammation, and even vision problems.

Orthokeratology

(ortho-k)

Orthokeratology (ortho-k) is the fitting of specially designed rigid gas permeable contact lenses that you wear overnight.

Eye Disease Diagnosis and Management

Early identification is crucial for treating and managing eye diseases. If your optometrist catches them early enough, they may be able to slow down progression or prevent vision loss.

Frame Services

When talking to someone, it is our eyes that we are communicating with. More than our clothes. More than our haircut. More than our shoes. Frame styles matter.

Lens Services

With Spectacle lenses, there are a wide range of available features. New technologies have brought us a range of lens powers that are virtually unlimited.
