Doctors of Optometry (eye doctors) specialize in the nuanced inner-workings of the human eye, including systemic conditions and diseases that manifest in the eye and may affect your vision and overall health.
Eye doctors are specifically trained to know how age and risk factors may affect vision over time for patients of all ages. An eye doctor is also well-versed on the features and benefits of corrective lenses, like contact lenses and spectacles.
Maintaining good eye health requires an ongoing partnership between you and the eye doctor. Our optometrist, Dr. Dane Sultzer currently offers care at our Pullman and Clarkston, WA locations. We are happy to explain each step of your eye exam, share options, and listen to concerns regarding your eye health.
Please feel free to ask our eye doctor questions and share details regarding your current health. All of this information is vital for an eye doctor to provide the best care, and helps with monitoring, diagnosing, and treating potential vision and health issues. We look forward to seeing you at either of our Pullman or Clarkston, WA clinic locations.
