Whether you are seeking something fashion-forward or more traditional, you’ll find it at The Eye Institute.
CONTACT LENSES
Contacts are a clear, comfortable choice for more thatn 45 million people in the U.S. Advannces in contact lens design and materials have made them easy to wear, more affordable, and viable for most vision correction, including for bifocal wearers.
LIPIFLOW
LipiFlow is an advanced treatment for dry eye caused by Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). MGD occurs when the oil-producing glands in your eyelids are blocked or partially blocked which prevents your tears from properly lubricating. Common symptoms include burning, itching, and discomfort. LipiFlow works by applying a combination of gentle heat and pressure to the eyelids, effectively massaging to help clear the blocked glands. This restores healthy oil production, improving the quality of your tears which can provide relief from dry eye symptoms.”
NEUROLENS
Do you have headaches, eye strain, light sensitivity or neck and shoulder pain? Eye misalignment could be the culprit. The demand on our eyes is greater than ever and as many as 80% of adults experience the painful symptoms of eye misalignment. Neurolens helps correct misalignment and can change people’s lives. Relief is in sight! Take the Nuerolens test to see if you’re a candidate.
INTENSE PULSED LIGHT THERAPY
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy, also known as photofacial, is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that uses light energy to treat a variety of skinconditions. IPL targets melanin in the skin’s surface to heat and destroy it, removing discoloration caused by freckles, age spots, birthmarks, melasma and more.

I have been coming to see Dr. Poirier here for 16 years. He is excellent, and has always taken the time to not just check my vision, but to maintain my eye health. My eyes have changed with age and diabetes, but all of the wonderful staff here have kept my vision as great as ever!
