What to Expect

For a typical examination, you should plan to be in our office about one hour. Our doctors are committed to your eye health, and each appointment requires specific testing during the examination. Please keep an open mind during your office visit so we may allow enough time to accommodate your needs.

What to Bring

Please bring a complete list of all medications you may be taking, even if they are not for your eyes. Bring any eyeglasses you currently wear or a written prescription and packaging for contact lenses. Sunglasses are often helpful following pupil dilation. If you don't have sunglasses, we can provide disposable sun protection following your exam.

Reviews From Our Satisfied Patients

  • "Dr. Michael Houseman took great care of my 92-year-old father, who can't hear very well at all, and who gets confused easily. He was very patient and kind, and spent extra time giving him the best prescription possible. When we went to get glasses, they were able to cut the lenses in house, very affordably."

  • "This place has been in operation for more than 100 years, so they must be doing something right. That "something" is prompt, professional service. I've never had to wait long for an appointment or to be seen once I arrive at the office. The staff knows what they're doing, and I've never walked away unhappy."
    Ashley F
  • "I was shopping for my third set of glasses from Garden City Optometrists. The entire staff got in on the experience, showing me frames that they thought would work well for me. We didn't find exactly what I was looking for, so they ordered some more examples. I've had nothing but great experiences with all of the doctors and staff here. See you guys in a few days for my new frames!"
