Understanding Vision

Pediatrics

Eye care for children is much different from that of an adult and even drastically different than that of a senior adult. A child’s ability to see develops rapidly in the first months of life.

Teens

If you are a teenager you will be experiencing your own unique visual issues. The teen years often bring about the first signs of inability to see at distances.

Adults

In your adult years you’ve most likely have learned to deal with your glasses or contact lenses in order to see. Eye care in adults is important in that as our eyes age or vision often worsens.

Seniors

By age 65, 1-in-3 Americans have some form of vision-impairing eye disease. It’s vital that seniors get regular eye exams to check for vision conditions that can lead to partial or permanent vision loss.

Our son had a minor, but urgent, eye issue this morning, and are just visiting Rapid City. We are so grateful for the help provided to us this morning at 7:30, to save us from what was otherwise a crisis to us and allow us to get back on the road this morning.

I was very impressed with the front staff when making my appointment and even more so with the very thorough exam process. Everyone that I met explained in detail what they were going to do and then proceeded to do so in a very professional, knowledgeable and caring manner. I thought Dr. Holec listened well to my eye issues and came up with a great game plan to get me the best vision possible. I look forward to going back for all of my routine eye care.

Exceptional service - willing to accommodate us during an emergency situation at the end of the day. Have always had the most professional, kind, and remarkable experiences here. I have a difficult prescription as well and Dr. Tucker perfected it when a few other doctors had difficulty doing so.

My kids and I have gone here since moving to Rapid City 6 years ago. We have seen multiple providers and have always felt the customer service is top notch. They have been above and beyond accommodating in emergency situations and are always prompt with responses. Hands down, best eye clinic we’ve ever been to.
