Our Optometrists
Eye care professionals specialize in understanding how the human eye really works, as well as diseases and conditions that affect your vision—many of which do not always have obvious symptoms. Optometrists know how age and risk factors affect vision over time for young and old, and they understand the benefits and features of corrective lenses, both as eyeglass lenses and contact lenses.
Dr. Terence Jansen, Dr. Sally Hamissou, and Dr. Lisa Cantrell have up to date training in eye care advancements using the latest in diagnostic equipment and testing. They are committed to providing thorough routine eye exams, diagnosis and treatment of ocular medical conditions, and treatment of age related ocular diseases,
