Our Medical Approach


We go deeper at Bard Optical, meaning we don’t settle for just a once-over when it comes to your eyes. During your appointment, we’ll perform thorough tests to get a total picture of your overall eye and vision health so we can follow up with care that’s focused on you. All of this is part of our medical approach to eye care, a staple of our practice for over 80 years and counting.

Our community trusts us with their eyes because we do more than just a basic vision screening. With our comprehensive eye exams, we’ll use our advanced technology to check for common eye diseases that can affect your sight and determine your precise vision prescription. That way, your vision solution will exactly match your eye health needs.

Pediatric Eye Health Exam

Your child’s eyes and vision are constantly changing as they grow. With our pediatric eye health exams, we’re able to get a detailed look at your young one’s eyes and make sure their eyes are developing properly and that they’re on track for healthy vision. If we detect any eye conditions, our doctors will get them in the right eyewear to help them experience the world around them clearly and comfortably.

Contact Lens Exams

Your contact lens prescription is different from that of your glasses because the corrective lenses sit directly on your eyes instead of in front of them. During your contact lens exam, we’ll check for any front-of-eye conditions and take a precise measurement of your eye. From there, we’ll help you choose the right contact lenses and fit them to you.
