About Us
Eyecare Plus Warners Bay has been proudly caring for the local community for over forty years. We are dedicated to providing comprehensive, compassionate eye care for patients of all ages. Our approach combines advanced diagnostic technology with personalized attention, ensuring every patient feels heard, supported, and confident in their vision care.
We offer thorough eye examinations that assess both visual clarity and overall ocular health, with tailored prescriptions for glasses and contact lenses— carefully selected to suit each individual’s lifestyle and needs. From children’s first eye tests to complex binocular vision assessments, myopia control management, we proudly provide full-scope family eye care.
Our practice provides medical eye care, including the prescription of ophthalmic medications for infections and inflammatory conditions including dry eye. We deliver specialized diabetic eye care using ultra-wide field EIDON retinal imaging and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), allowing early detection and careful monitoring of retinal changes.
When advanced surgical or tertiary care is required, we coordinate seamless referrals to trusted ophthalmologists for treatments including cataract surgery, laser vision correction, retinal procedures, intravitreal injections, blepharoplasty, and more.
Above all, we believe eye care is about more than vision — it’s about supporting quality of life, building long-term relationships, and caring for our community with integrity and kindness.
