Ensuring crisp and clear vision is only one part of first-rate eye care. In addition to testing visual acuity, our Nashville optometrist will focus on the comprehensive and long-term health of your eyes and vision.

The driving theme behind our practice is to provide quality, technologically advanced eye care for the entire family in a warm friendly environment. Just like Dr. Shanks says: “We are going to treat you like family each time you enter our office!”

Many common eye diseases, such as macular degeneration, cataracts, and glaucoma, do not present symptoms until a later stage.
