Eye exams often include several tests and screening procedures, and at Lowcountry Eye Care, that also means a very comprehensive approach to your eye health and vision. Our technicians will lead you through several pre-screening exams in order to determine a baseline of your overall eye health. Automatic Visual Acuity and Refraction Tests: We use computerized eye exam equipment to determine your ability to see near and far.
The CDC recommends regular eye exams every year or two at an optical boutique. If you are experiencing any issues with your eyes such as decreased vision, pain, redness, halos, floaters, etc then it's time to make an appointment. Exams are simple and painless. Call one of our 4 locations to set up an appointment today.
At Lowcountry Eye Care Center we accept Eye Insurance including both Vision Insurance and Medical Insurance. Medical insurance generally covers ocular steroids and even medical eye exams related to complaints ranging from redness and allergies to cataracts and glaucoma. They will not cover material such as glasses and contacts.

Also, since most of us have children we have first hand knowledge how to interact with them and how to make your kids feel most comfortable at our eye care center.

Joe Pitcavage is the man! I have gotten my last 3 pairs of glasses there and will go again. I was there recently for a drop-in of clients and it was one of the best events I have been to.
