Personal eye care, the way it should be.

We're a family practice in every sense — caring for generations of Ventura County families in a comfortable, friendly environment since 1991.

Our story

Committed to your complete eye care

Our commitment is simple: provide you and your family the finest eye care available. Because we know how important your vision, eye health and appearance are to you, we take care of every part of it — from the exam chair to the frame bar.

We know you have a choice in eye care, so we work to exceed your expectations with exceptional personal attention. That approach has earned us the Ventura County Star Readers' Choice award for Favorite Optometrist and Favorite Eyeglass Store for numerous years.

Today we've moved into a new, larger Simi Valley office in the LA Plaza, and we continue to see patients at our Camarillo location on Verdugo Way.

Since 1991 — decades of continuity with the same trusted team
