The doctors are known for their thoroughness in performing an eye exam. Each patient receives individual care based on their needs - not hurried through as you are in many large clinics. The office is consistently voted "Best Optometrist" and "Best Eye Clinic" by the readers of the Enquirer Journal.

Phifer Eye offers a full range of optometric services. They perform diabetic eye exams and manage glaucoma, while also monitoring for macular degeneration. They perform pre-LASIK and post-LASIK examinations as well as follow-up care for cataract surgery. They treat eye injuries in both children and adults. The office is stocked with a wide assortment of eyeglass frames ranging from budget to designer lines. An optical assistant is available to assist with selecting the perfect style frame. Skin tones, hair color and style, and life styles are all taken into consideration when selecting glasses. Lens options are explained and recommendations offered, however, the patient has the final say. Patient satisfaction is very important.

PHIFER EYE'S GOAL IS TO PROVIDE THE HIGHEST QUALITY VISION CARE IN BOTH SERVICES AND MATERIALS. WE STRIVE TO CREATE A PROFESSIONAL YET RELAXING ENVIRONMENT.

Testimonials

CC

Went here for my 10 year old daughter. We have had some questionable eye docs at other places, this one was amazing! Dr. Phifer was polite and informative. He didn't treat her like a baby but he kept it simple(for both of us). Definitely above average eye care. Comfortable environment. And the staff was helpful and very polite as well. Pleased through and through! Best eye doctor I have ever been to and I have seen lots throughout the years! Update: I've seen both Doctors their now and equally like both of them! Young Phifer is just as friendly and helpful as his father. Even with 3 in my family needing glasses I prefer this place a thousand times over compared to the 'cheaper' place on TV.
