- Beaumont Vision has been the only place I shop for glasses for years, and every time a friend talks about needing new glasses I bring them here. The staff is knowledgeable, so patient, and committed to helping you get the perfect prescription and the perfect frame or contact lens. The opticians have a wonderful eye for helping me select frames that suit my face and are honest about what works and what doesn’t.Coming in here is always more like shopping at a well curated boutique than completing a necessary errand. They carry the best variety of frames I’ve seen anywhere. Whether I come in looking to be adventurous and fashionable when it’s time to refresh my eyewear, or something that makes a more muted statement, I can find exactly what I’m looking for. They carry a huge selection of local and international brands and the shop is so cute; they always have a cool changing window display. I got my prescription renewed here with the ophthalmologist and have never gone back, I finally have a lens prescription that corrects my difficult dual astigmatism and gives me clear vision. I even managed to *finally* get contacts that fit correctly and feel comfortable after years of trying and failing.I cannot recommend Beaumont highly enough!read moreread lessAubrey P.Doctor Sarah Pajot is excellent.

I have been coming to Beaumont Vision for frames and lenses and frames for about 6 years and they have consistently gone above and beyond to ensure that I can see well and that I look good while I am wearing my glasses! This last time around the lens manufacturers made mistakes on my lenses and the folks at Beaumont worked quickly to correct the problem with excellent results.

When one medication doesn't work or causes an allergic reaction, he is right there holding my hand through the process. Dr. Lewis is super easy to talk to. He spends time with his patients and makes them feel comfortable with the decisions he is making.The people he uses up front for insurance and glasses are also right on point.

We manage a significant number of dry eye patients, and we can provide dry eye sufferers with a wide array of effective options.
LASIK Patient Care
Recovery from LASIK surgery tends to be relatively comfortable and short. Having said that, proper outcomes require appropriate pre- and post-operative care. At Beaumont Vision, our doctors are thoroughly qualified to guide you through the LASIK recovery process, so you can get back to living your life as efficiently and comfortably as possible.
Cataract Co-Management

Digital Retinal Imaging
Digital retinal imaging allows our doctors to thoroughly examine the light-sensitive lining inside your eye. The high magnification and sharp resolution of our state-of-the-art digital retinal imaging help our doctors detect early warning signs of issues that could be strictly vision-related (such as macular degeneration) or conditions that could affect your whole body (such as diabetes and high blood pressure).
We recommend an evaluation of the retina with each comprehensive eye exam.
Visual Field Testing
Visual field testing allows our doctors to check your visual system for blind spots.
Visual field testing aids in detecting early signs of ocular and neurological diseases. This is highly valuable, non-invasive test that is commonly performed for a wide variety of conditions.
