Our focus is on holistic health, and that philosophy extends beyond “just” eye care. This means that we look at the whole picture and center our practice on preventative care and health education.

We maintain that overall health is integral to eye health. We are a family-oriented practice, that is proud of the care we provide and our commitment to our patients. We embrace that a healthy community is key to a brilliant vision of the future.

Our Story

Dr. Laurie Capogna founded Eye Wellness on her passion for ocular nutrition and health. She has co-authored 2 books, Eyefoods: A Food Plan for Healthy Eyes, and Eyefoods for Kids, which provide insight into the philosophies to which she has dedicated her life and business.

She is joined every day by an equally passionate team of eye care professionals and staff. Together, they present the very best in modern yet traditional eye health practices. They create confidence by educating their patients about their ocular health and future wellness, while providing incredible quality eyewear.
