TEI Gives Back Program

Make Appointment

The Eye Institute believes in becoming part of the community. We also know that not every person who needs glasses and an eye exam can afford them. Every fall, TEI hosts a “Give Back” Day. We offer free eye exams and a free pair of glasses to the first 100 people who walk in our door. We’ve hosted this event at our Knightdale location since 2011, giving away an estimated 900 exams and pairs of glasses. Our most recent event was September 28, 2019. Our team loves to see smiles on people’s faces as they put on glasses and see clearly for the first time!

Nominate Someone for our Give Back Program – Any Time of Year

If you know someone who cannot afford an eye exam or glasses, please nominate him or her for a free exam and glasses any time of year. We accept nominations year round and will donate a free exam and pair of glasses once per month, based on justified need, at our discretion.

Fill out the form below and tell us why that person qualifies. If selected, we will reach out to him/her and coordinate an appointment.* We may mention your name to the candidate unless otherwise notified in the essay section.

*TEI cannot guarantee each nominee will receive a free exam or glasses. Those who are chosen will receive a basic eye exam with refraction at one of our three locations.

Excellent service, doctor and front desk staff. Also an excellent and very stylish selection of eyewear for the entire family.

I left feeling as if I was valued, and that my money was being well spent on something I wanted to spend it on — not something I felt pressured into thinking I needed. The eye exam was by far one of the most involved and well explained I have ever experienced. I was pleasantly surprised the that the Dr. was present the whole time, my questions were answered with thought and not once did I get the standard, "I would not be too concerned " response. It was always a clear interest to make sure I was understanding the technical as well as the results of his answer.

After many many years here...I am still happy to have my annual exam, glasses, contact lenses, and other services for my family here. LOVE this place and the atmosphere with knowledgeable and friendly staff. I highly recommend!

TEI's team has always been courteous, friendly, and calls about the exam. I've been going for years to one in Knightdale, NC and would not switch unless they close which, hopefully, they never will!

Jimena H.

I had been coming here for years and I’m always greeted by friendly staff! They know most of my family and remember our life stories when we come. It never feels like I’m the eye doctor, it feels like family.

Dr. Chad Morgan has provided me with proactive, strategic care and exceptional long-term advice about my eye care for more than 5 years. I trust him completely and know he has a full understanding of my health and the new treatment options for my care. I simply wouldn't entrust my eyes to anyone else!

Cheryl H.

Good customer service. Tiffany was very helpful in helping me pick out my new eyewear. Dr. Chad is friendly and proactive...I appreciate both!
