"10/10 would recommend! Glasses can take anywhere from an hour to a week. The doctor is very friendly, answers any questions you have, explains everything and the staff are sweet and knowledgeable! We have always gone to a big national name store and now we will only use Young at heart vision! Plenty of glasses to choose from, they have the best prices in town by far and they even see adults!" - Marie Tutterrow |
"Took my 3 year old and 12 year old for an exam and update to my daughters glasses. I called the day before and they were able to get me right in. The exams were very quick and I was able to get my daughter new glasses same day. There was a large selection of glasses which made it easy for my picky 12 year old to pick. Clean and friendly office." - S C |
"My kids and I love this place! They offer a very friendly atmosphere with all the paintings on the walls of kids favorite cartoon characters. The staff is extremely patient and kind to my children! When we we arrive we are always greeted with smiles! The staff take pride in their work and it definitely shows!" - Andrea Vigil |
"I brought my 19 month old nephew here and I was very impressed with the way they took care of him. As soon as they called his name to go back for his check up, he got freaked out and wouldn't let me put him down. But the staff was so good that they were able to do everything they needed to do in his mouth even with me holding him. Side note, the waiting room alone would be worth bring your child here...So cool and great experience!" - Rhea Garcia |
Fun Facts about our EYES
- The average blink lasts for about 1/10th of a second.
- While it takes some time for most parts of your body to warm up to their full potential, your eyes are on their “A game” 24/7.
- Eyes heal quickly. With proper care, it only takes about 48 hours for the eye to repair a corneal scratch.
- Seeing is such a big part of everyday life that it requires about half of the brain to get involved.
- Newborns don’t produce tears. They make crying sounds, but the tears don’t start flowing until they are about 4-13 weeks old.
- Around the world, about 39 million people are blind and roughly 6 times that many have some kind of vision impairment.
- Doctors have yet to find a way to transplant an eyeball. The optic nerve that connects the eye to the brain is too sensitive to reconstruct successfully.
- The cells in your eye come in different shapes. Rod-shaped cells allow you to see shapes, and cone-shaped cells allow you to see color.
- You blink about 12 times every minute.
- Your eyes are about 1 inch across and weigh about 0.25 ounce.
- Some people are born with two differently colored eyes. This condition is heterochromia.
- Even if no one in the past few generations of your family had blue or green eyes, these recessive traits can still appear in later generations.
- Each of your eyes has a small blind spot in the back of the retina where the optic nerve attaches. You don’t notice the hole in your vision because your eyes work together to fill in each other’s blind spot.
- Out of all the muscles in your body, the muscles that control your eyes are the most active.
- 80% of vision problems worldwide are avoidable or even curable.
- You see things upside down - it is your brain which turns the image the right way up.
- In a single second, it’s possible to blink five times.
- The eye is the fastest muscle in your body – hence why when something happens quickly, we say ‘in the blink of an eye!’
- The human eye can function at 100% at any given moment, without needing to rest.
- Red-eye in photos is caused by light from the flash bouncing off the capillaries in your eyes.
- If the human eye was a digital camera, it would have 576 megapixels.
