Crozet Eye Care Optometrists
At Crozet Eye Care, we provide our patients with the highest quality eyeglass frames and the ultimate in lens technology. Crozet Eye Care offers the latest in contact lens technologies, from advanced materials for patients with dry eyes and astigmatism to those who require bifocal contact lenses. As a family practice, Crozet Eye Care is one of the few practices that serves children under age 5 in the Greater Charlottesville area.

Eye and vision problems in infants can cause developmental delays, so it is imperative to detect issues as early as possible. It is for this reason that the AOA recommends well eye care check-ups starting at age 6 months, 3 years, by 1st grade and then every two years - even if no eye or vision problems are apparent.
Services
Regular eye exams are as vital to your vision and overall health as annual physicals. Many health issues, such as high blood pressure and diabetes, can be detected through your eyes before symptoms present themselves. Also, many eye diseases present no signs or symptoms until it's too late, often when the damage is irreversible.
We treat a wide variety of emergencies relating to eye infections, injuries, and conditions and can write prescriptions to your pharmacy, bypassing the time that you would have to spend in an emergency room. Please call us in the case of an emergency if you are experiencing pain, swelling, discharge, excessive tearing, sudden changes in vision or vision loss, or other symptoms that would lead you to believe your eyesight is in jeopardy.
We closely monitor our patients' eye health to look for diseases and disorders and treat them before they begin to present symptoms. In cases where our patients already have disorders, we work with them to provide the best treatment options to help eliminate, or in some cases manage, these diseases.

Don't bother if you have Blue View Vision Insurance. They refuse to file the claim necessary to get the covered exam and retinal image covered. And since they are SUPPOSED to be in network with Blue Vision, that makes it impossible for the patient to then file a "out of network" form with Blue Vision! Might as well not have the insurance if we have to pay for covered services ourselves. I loved the Dr. there. The Office sucks. They are also hard sell to sell you glasses from their own stock even after I told them I had been buying glasses and lenses elsewhere for year. Heck if they would not file

Hands down, the best experience I’ve ever had when it comes to optometry. The staff is lovely, the doctors know what they’re doing, and I have never had such hospitality in regards to glasses fittings, vision procedures, etc. I’ll never go anywhere else!

Very detailed! I’ve been going to eye doctors for 45 years and never had one be as thorough as this one. Everyone in the office was wonderful.

Dr. Franklin is the best eye doctor I’ve ever encountered. She’s very knowledgeable, thorough and personable, and a caring individual. Always takes the time to explain everything and allow for questions. The entire staff is friendly and helpful.

The doctors at Crozet Eye Care are great! High-quality exams and care. Did you know they’re available for eye emergencies? Right… not until you have one do you realize how valuable this is! Saved a weekend trip to the ER, whew. Glad to be a patient of Crozet Eye Care.

Love this practice. Today was my first visit but I know Dena. She of course helped me find the perfect new frame! I am so glad I found this group. The office staff was friendly, prompt and following safe Covid protocols. Dr HaBert was fantastic. As a result, the visit was comfortable and timely. I’ll be using them going forward.

First visit with Dr Franklin's team. Yes, it is a whole team that works together to give a very professional service while remaining friendly and personal.
Questions are welcome and fully answered.
I received a full and thorough exam with a detailed review of my eye health, followed by careful refraction.
New eyeglasses were advised, measured and ordered with all of my preferred features available.
Crozet Eye Care is quite the discovery!

My son and I went for our first eye exams here back in July. Dr. Halbert and her techs were great! However, I will NOT be going back. 1) While I was finishing my exam, my 17 year old son was taken to the optical area and shown glasses and different frames. He was then encouraged to pick out a pair he liked. As we were checking out, they informed me it would be $500 for his glasses. I told them, we would not be ordering glasses today but my concern is that they should have never put his glasses on my bill without consulting me (the adult and insurance carrier) FIRST! If he were to have attended
