Family Eyecare
AJ Kew Gardens Optical has been dedicated to providing the Kew Gardens Hills community with the best family eye care for years, offering expert services and quality eye examinations for all your vision needs.
Periodic eye and vision examinations are an important part of preventive health care. Early diagnosis and treatment of eye and vision problems can help prevent vision loss. Each patient's signs and symptoms, along with your doctor of optometry's professional judgment, will determine what tests are conducted.
We fit many types of contacts including bifocal, toric for astigmatism, gas-permeable, and new options that are being developed every year. Through careful examination and measurement of the eyes, we are able to successfully prescribe contact lenses to many patients who previously were unable to wear them.
Which is better: 1 or 2? Determining the lens powers for your new glasses is not only a science, but an art as well. We use a combination of objective precision and careful patient collaboration to write a thoughtful spectacle Rx that will make your vision both clear and comfortable.
Find the frames that fit your style! Following your eye exam, explore our diverse collection of prescription glasses, stylish frames, sunglasses, and contact lenses at your convenience. Our knowledgeable staff is dedicated to assisting you in selecting the ideal fit for both your vision needs and your lifestyle.
