Eyecare Image

At Lifetime Eyecare, the doctors and our entire optometry team are committed to providing advanced vision care in a professional and comfortable environment. As optometrists, our primary eye care service includes a computer assisted eye exam that analyzes eye health and vision function. In addition to eye exams and vision testing, the doctors and our team of optometry professionals provide testing for glaucoma, cataracts and macular degeneration. Our optometrists also offer glasses, contact lenses, and pre- and post-operative care.

Eye Exams
The doctors and the Lifetime Eyecare team take even routine eye exams very seriously. During a yearly examination, our patients will receive a patient history review, a series of vision and eye tests, assessments of eye focusing and movement, and an eye health evaluation. Our optometrists will discuss any additional testing that may be required to diagnose an eye disease or condition. Call us a today at 616-457-0760 to schedule an appointment.

Contact Lenses
Not sure that glasses are for you? Ask our staff about contact lenses. Advances in the field of optometry have produced a variety of different types of contact lenses with a range of benefits. Rigid gas-permeable (RGP), daily-wear soft, extended-wear, extended-wear disposable, and planned replacement are the various types of contact lens options available today. Our optometrists will discuss the various options with you to determine which type will best fit your needs and lifestyle. They are many advantages to consider when determining if contact lenses are right for you and our knowledgeable staff is here to answer any questions. Schedule your examination today!

Lasik
Laser assisted in situ keratomileusis, commonly referred to as LASIK, is a corrective alternative to glasses or contact lenses. Like glasses or contact lenses, LASIK is a method for treating refractive conditions including nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism. At Lifetime Eyecare, our doctors provide pre- and post-operative exams for LASIK and other eye procedures. Call today to schedule an examination to see whether you are a candidate for LASIK.


Paragon CRT
For active near-sighted individuals, we are excited to have Dr. Gdowski fitting Paragon CRT contact lenses. Corneal Reshaping Therapy is a unique way to correct your eyesight, without the need for glasses or Lasik. These contact lenses are worn overnight, while sleeping, and reshape the front surface of the eye to your specific correction.

  • "Everyone there is very professional. I saw Dr Allen Smith and I think that I got a much better prescription for my lenses than I had previously from a different office. He took time with my exam to make sure that everything was correct. Since my husband did not come with me, I was glad that the office staff took time with me to find frames that worked well. They were very helpful. I have been happy for the last 2 years with the glasses I purchased there."

  • "Dr Smith is Friendly and funny . The entire staff is very friendly and helpful !!! I won't go anywhere else for my eye care and glasses. I love their honest opinion on what frames looks good on me."
    Diane
  • "I was having trouble with my vision being strained from overuse at work. Dr. Gdowski took the extra time needed to identify the problem, and find a solution that worked best for me. My new computer glasses have completely solved my eye strain, and I couldn't be happier! My Optician, Tiffany, was extremely knowledgeable about the types of lenses, their strengths and weaknesses, and the frames that Lifetime Eyecare offers. She had me not only seeing correctly, but looking great too!"

  • "Five Stars all the way around! The entire staff are personable, knowledgeable professionals who always greet me with a smile and treat me like I'm their best customer. The congenial atmosphere in this office puts fun into a medical procedure. Their professional work gives me ultimate confidence that with Dr Smith and staff my eyes are in good hands!"

  • "I haven't been to this office since my last eye exam as a kid over a decade ago; but I'm SO glad I came back to this office (even though my original eye doc retired)! The staff is very friendly, and I was VERY impressed with Dr. Smith. He is incredibly great at what he does while also takes an interest in who you are as a person; you can tell he's into forming relationships with patients and I think that's important. Will definitely return to this office in the future!"

  • "I've been a patient at Lifetime Eyecare for the past 19 years. The staff is amazing, and I consistently receive the highest quality of care from the physicians and staff. My son had one visit here and they are absolutely wonderful with children! Everyone takes the time to explain things well and consider all factors in my care very carefully. I highly recommend this practice!"
    Tammi
  • "The best vision care facility I've ever been to. Dr. Smith and his staff are simply amazing. Professional. Caring. Kind. Costs are fair and the skill of diagnosis and explaining what choices you can make are clear and concise. The atmosphere of this clinic is also top notch with people who work as a unit to respect your time, pocketbook, and convenience. I will never use another facility or doctor than Dr. Smith."
    Wayne
  • "I had a great experience with Dr. Gdowski. She gave me the most thorough eye exam I've ever had and I got my first new pair of glasses in 10+ years. Dr. Gdowski and my optician Tiffany talked to me about the importance of blocking harmful blue light and protecting my eyes after long days on a computer. They put me in an Eyezen lens and my eyes have never felt better!"
