Our Featured Services

WHAT WE OFFER

Comprehensive Eye Exams

Routine eye exams are a vital aspect of preventive eye care. Without routine eye exams, vision issues often go undetected since most eye disorders don't have clear symptoms.

Dry Eye/Ocular Surface Disease Evaluations and Treatment

Dry eye/ocular surface disease can have a major impact on your quality of life. You may find your eyes get tired faster, your vision gets blurry or your eyes get red, burn, itch, water, or feel generally irritated. These can all be signs of ocular surface disease. Let us help!

Diabetic Eye Exams

Diabetes is one of the most common chronic health conditions in the United States with an estimated 100 million adults currently living with diabetes or pre-diabetes. Our high-level retinal imaging helps us view blood vessels in the back of the eye that can easily be stressed and affected by diabetes.

Contact Lens Exams

During a contact lens exam, we will discuss your goals as well as the best and most advanced contact lens options for you. We will then evaluate the contact lenses on your eye to ensure they are giving you the best fit, comfort and vision.

Specialty Contact Lens

Some patients have corneal abnormalities which mean that conventional lenses won’t sit comfortably on the surface of their eyes, while others suffer from eye conditions that mean normal contact lenses won’t be comfortable or could irritate their eyes. 

Myopia Management

There is a global concern that kids are getting nearsighted or myopic starting at an earlier age and at a faster pace than ever before. There are now therapies that can slow down the progression of nearsightedness/myopia. Ask us today!

Pediatric Eye Exams

A thorough investigation of your child's overall health of the eye and the visual system is important since some childhood vision problems can go undetected.

Medical Eye Care

Some common things that we manage are cataracts, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. More than 4.2 million people in the U.S. alone over the age of 40 are partially blind or have poor visual acuity. For the best outcome, it’s important to see an eye doctor regularly. They can identify any issues before they become serious problems.

Same-Day Eye Emergencies

Eye emergencies cover a range of incidents and conditions such as red eyes, infections, trauma, cuts, scratches, foreign objects in the eye, burns, chemical exposure, and blunt injuries to the eye or eyelid.

"Go here! I came in with nothing but problems, eye issues and insurance ones!! The whole team helped to figure out the insurance snafu, and Dr. Bjore might be the best eye doctor I’ve seen. Attentive, solutions based care with state-of-the-art equipment and I thought my last eye doctor had fancy equipment. My eyes felt better with the fit and style of contact I was given. I am very grateful to Dr. Bjore and her team."

Cristina C.

"Excellent customer service and personal care! As a glasses-wearer since early childhood, I’ve been to many optometrist practices. This one rates at the top! I was given incredible attention, and the staff ensured my needs were met (and not just products sold). Can’t recommend enough!"

Lori D.

"The clinic is fairly new, but Emily is my optometrist from a previous location and I like her and wanted to stay with her for my care. The front desk attendant was very welcoming and helpful. Edgar, the technician I worked with, was excellent and helped me get situated and complete initial setup and also assisted me with purchasing glasses and sunglasses. Emily does a great job of being thorough and professional, yet is very personable and takes her time to explain things and answer questions. It was a very positive experience."

David G.

"I had a new patient appointment with Dr. Hegerman. All the tests felt very comprehensive and Dr. Hegerman was very kind and happy to answer any of my questions. Also their new clinic is so nice and the equipment feels state of the art! I would highly recommend getting your next eye appointment here!!"

"I’ve seen Dr. Bjore for years and she’s great! It was an easy choice to follow her from a previous practice. The space itself is wonderful, and all the staff present at my appointment were helpful and kind."

Hannah L.

"I loved the service. The doctor was very kind. They have the most advanced technology. They accept almost all insurance plans and have payment options and memberships in case you don't have coverage. Some of the staff speak Spanish and are very friendly. They treat you the way you deserve. 10 out of 10.

"I love going to the eye doctor because of Dr. Bjore and the Blue Lakes team! The new space is beautiful and welcoming, and all the high-tech and innovative equipment during my exam shows the docs know their stuff. I received comprehensive care and attentiveness throughout my entire visit, from being greeted at the front desk by Josie, to my exam with Dr. Bjore, to receiving remarkable assistance picking out the best-suited frames for my big and wide head by Edgar and Rachel. The team went above and beyond making sure to maximize my benefits and insurance coverage, and I love the ease of reference with the patient portal. Their communication is top-notch, letting me know when my orders were available, and even a minor fee adjustment when the insurance numbers crunched out for the better. I can’t wait until my annual exam next year, and know the team is there for me if there are any questions or concerns at any point!"

Kyle T.

"I've been going to Dr.Bjore for quite a few years and was really disappointed when I tried to make an appointment for an eye exam and she was no longer listed on that eye cares website. I always enjoyed her professionalism and felt like I was getting top notch eye care with her as my doctor. Luckily I was able to spend some time searching for her on the web and discovered she had a new business, Blue Lakes Eye Care, not far from where she used to be. As long as she is accomplishing eye care anywhere near me I have no reason to go anywhere else. I highly recommend Blue Lakes Eye Care, both for me and my family. All the employees at Blue Lakes Eye Care are professional and very pleasant to deal with. A very welcoming place for eye care!
