Innovative Eye Care for All Ages
Family Eyecare Associates offers much more than stylish glasses. Our team provides advanced medical, surgical, and routine eye care that supports patients of every age and activity level.
Comprehensive Care for Children and Adults
We welcome families from across Central and Southern Kentucky who need everything from routine exams to specialty services.
Vision Exams and Glasses
Regular eye exams help us update prescriptions, monitor eye health, and ensure every patient enjoys clear, comfortable vision.
Specialized Pediatric Services
Children who struggle with reading, focusing, or other classroom tasks receive targeted evaluations that uncover hidden visual problems.
Support for Athletes
Sports vision training sharpens reaction time, depth perception, and tracking skills so competitors can reach their full potential.
The Power of Vision Therapy
Vision Therapy is like physical therapy for the eyes, retraining the brain and visual system to work together with greater efficiency.
How Vision Therapy Works
Through guided exercises and specialized equipment, patients practice visual tasks that build strength, accuracy, and coordination.
Conditions Treated by Vision Therapy
This program targets many functional vision problems that do not respond to glasses alone.
- Amblyopia, also called lazy eye
- Strabismus, or eye turn
- Difficulty with focusing and tracking
- Visual processing delays
Benefits for Athletes
Enhanced hand-eye coordination and faster visual decision-making can translate into improved performance on the field or court.
Help After Brain Injury
Patients recovering from concussions, strokes, or other brain injuries use Vision Therapy to regain lost visual skills and comfort.
State-of-the-Art Technology for Early Detection
Advanced diagnostic tools allow us to uncover issues before they threaten long-term vision.
Visually Evoked Potential Testing
This test measures the electrical response of the visual cortex, helping us evaluate the entire visual pathway.
Optical Coherence Tomography
OCT scans create detailed images of the retina and optic nerve, allowing early detection of glaucoma, macular degeneration, and other diseases.
Corneal Molding for Myopia Control
Special contact lenses worn overnight gently reshape the cornea, reducing or eliminating daytime nearsightedness without surgery.
Why Patients Travel from All Over Kentucky
Families from more than 300 zip codes trust our combination of expertise, technology, and patient-centered care.
Wide Service Area
Patients come from Lexington, Frankfort, Danville, and many other communities because they cannot find the same services locally.
Commitment to Ongoing Innovation
Our team is always seeking new methods and tools that meet emerging patient needs, inspired by the mindset, “When we discover what patients need, we learn how to provide it.”
Personalized Patient Experience
Each visit is tailored to individual goals, whether that means clearer classroom reading, safer driving, or peak athletic performance.
Our Commitment to Your Vision Health
Your eyesight shapes every part of daily life, and our team is ready to help you protect and improve it. We look forward to welcoming you and guiding you toward a lifetime of clear, comfortable vision.
