Our passion is helping people with their vision needs in a casual, competent, courteous and non-rushed atmosphere. We believe in modern technology and old fashioned customer service. In addition to assessing your refractive needs, we routinely assess for strabismus, ambloypia, glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and cataracts among other diseases that affect the eyes and or visual system.

Fortunatley, blindness from disease and trauma, is small compared to the worlds population, but it is very significant if you are the individual with the problem.

Flashing lights can represent stimulation to the retina or light sensitive layer of the eye. Generally, flashing lights in the form of instantaneous lightening bolts represent that some form of traction has been placed on the retina. These flashes of light are not like the aura of migraine headaches that usually last continually for minutes and change appearance over that time period.
Commonly, prescriptions are written from the perspective of what type of lens is going to cover the greatest of the patients needs on an everyday basis with just one pair of glasses. However, certain tasks may be made much easier to perform with a special prescription designed for the task. Painting on an easel, tying flies for fishing, playing the piano/organ or use of a computer are just some examples.
Age and genetics are factors for which we have no current control over. However, we can influence the risks associated with smoking, obesity, and lack of exercise, excessive drinking of alcohol, inadequate nutrition and sunlight exposure. Smoking increases the oxidative stress and contributes to eye disease progression.
This term describes a mismatch among the refractive elements of the eye while accommodation is at rest. This mismatch results in blur as it does not allow a sharp image to fall on the retina or light sensitive layer of the eye. The refractive elements include the corneal curvatures, lenticular curvatures, axial length, respective indexes, thicknesses and retinal curvature.

So not really my experience but my master, the great Young Kung fu kenny, had placed an order for some prescription glasses and all was good for the first few weeks just typical waiting for them to be ready. But after about a month and a half he called and they had informed him that the had to be sent back for they have broken. Like I thought this was a good place to get glasses and all but I guess not. He had also called about three weeks after waiting and was informed that there was no record of his order. In conclusion they should’ve had his glasses in the time they had informed him they would

I went in asking for one pair of bifocal prescription glasses with clip on sunglass lenses for which my insurance would cover the majority of the cost. I was very clear I spent all day on my lap top and phone so reading was really important. I argued against progressive and transition lens at first but was told all these benefits of both. I left having paid for two pairs of glasses. I was talked into a special two for one progressive and transition lenses deal and a second set of frames costing me an additional $365. Fine. I would have two pairs of glasses in case I broke a pair. When I receive

My son has autism an does not follow directions nor focuses very well. However Dr. Van Dusen is so patient and works so well with him. I've moved about 30 minutes away from his Banning office nevertheless I absolutely refuse to change to another eye Dr. In my opinion he is the best!

I've been a patient for years and have noticed a decline in service. Today was the icing on the cake. Out of frustration, I made a comment about my insurance coverage. I received an extremely snide and unprofessional comment back and was chastised like a child. When your staff members know my personal history and circumstances, they may have permission to scold me if I'm out of line in my grumbling. Until then, when your patients walk through that door, you have absolutely no right to pass your judgment on anyone based upon any preconceived ideas you may have because of services needed

Anytime I call I'm sent to voicemail or greeted by someone whose rude. I get rude patients but seriously it's early in the morning when I call. So no one is there they shouldn't be sending us to voicemail.

The best Dr. on the planet! He is kind, patient, and gentle. He volunteers his time almost every weekend helping those in need of glasses. He has saved my vision after I had an accident with my eye. I believe he is the standard that all doctors should try in emulate.

My husband and I were NOT happy with the service we received. The Dr. made us both feel that he was doing us a favor by seeing us!! Will NOT be going back!
