Routine and Preventive Eye Care at Family Eye Center

A comprehensive eye exam at Family Eye Center covers more than your prescription. Your optometrist checks the health of your eyes for early signs of conditions such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic eye changes, many of which have no noticeable symptoms in their early stages. Catching those changes early gives you more clinical options.

Pediatric eye care is available starting at approximately six months of age. For children whose myopia is progressing year over year, Dr. Landon J. Montierth, O.D., has experience fitting MiSight® daily disposable contact lenses as part of a myopia management plan.

Walk-ins are welcome during office hours for patients who cannot always schedule ahead. Each service below has its own page with more detail.

Medical Eye Care Close to Home in Safford

Managing glaucoma, macular degeneration, or diabetic eye disease requires an optometrist who knows your history and can monitor changes over time. Both Dr. Tracy J. Montierth, O.D., and Dr. Landon J. Montierth, O.D., provide ongoing medical eye care for these conditions. Dr. Tracy J.
