About Us
Sight can start with glasses and contacts, however, vision is the brain process that lies behind the eyes. After many years of practice and not being able to address the full visual process, we decided to open a clinic that can take vision to the next level.
Transforming Lives Through Vision
Transforming lives through innovative healthcare. At Katmai Eye we look deeper when treating eye health conditions including dry eyes, and evaluate and treat the surrounding tissues for a more functional and lasting approach. We treat the conditions that develop as the tissues of skin around the eyes change such as dry eyes, droopy eyelids, broken blood vessels, wrinkles, and other irregular skin formations. We use the latest technology and advanced education to come up with the best treatment options, eyeglass, and contact lens prescriptions for your vision. We do this in a relaxed and intimate setting with a team that feels like family.
