Comprehensive Eye Exams
Comprehensive eye examinations at OPT include your prescription for glasses and/or contact lenses, and a full eye health examination including eye dilation and/or Optomap ® retinal imaging. Your prescription is valid for one year from the date of your examination. If you wish to be fitted for contact lenses as well, it can be performed as an additional part of your annual visit.
Emergency Eye Care
Emergency eye care includes diagnosis and potential treatment or referral for new or emerging eye conditions. An emergency refers to any sudden onset of symptoms or obvious eye trauma that can affect vision.
Pediatric Eye Care
Bring the smallest members of your family to OPT. Dr. Gabrielle M. Szwajca-Drewniak can examine children as young as three years of age. She will objectively assess their prescription, binocular vision, and check their eye health. If Vision Therapy is recommended by our or another provider, we can perform services at our office.
Vision Therapy
Vision Therapy is a sequence of neurosensory and neuromuscular activities individually prescribed and monitored by a doctor to develop, rehab, and enhance visual skills and processing. It can be done to help treat a lazy eye, crossed eyes, and a number of other visual processing disorders.
Optomap ® Retinal Imaging
As a routine part of your annual eye exam, your eye care provider can conduct and evaluate an Optomap ®. Having an Optomap ® is fast, painless, and comfortable. Nothing touches your cornea at any time during the test, and it is suitable for every member of your family. To have the exam, you simply look into the device one eye at a time, and you will see a flash of light to let you know the image of your retina has been taken. The image capture takes less than a half second, and they are available immediately for you to see.

Legendary Customer Service
“ Dr. Szwajca-Drewniak has been my family’s optometrist for a few years now, and I’d highly recommend seeing her! Other than going in for our annual eye exams, we have seen her for help with a stye, a chalazion, eye allergy relief, dry eyes, and an exam after a minor chemical splash that I had unfortunately experienced. When I went in for this chemical splash accident, I felt extremely cared about -thankfully everything was okay with my eye! And if you are someone with amblyopia like myself, Dr.Szwajca-Drewniak will definitely remind you to keep that good eye extra safe with eye wear protection
I am definitely more conscious about wearing my glasses after that visit and our discussion about safety and eye health! In all, she is very professional, personable, and someone I trust recommending to friends, family, and others to see! "
