Your eyes deserve a second look

The IU School of Optometry offers a unique experience unlike any other eye care center.

At our clinics, you’re seen by an experienced faculty doctor who has made meaningful research discoveries in the field of optometry. You’re also seen by an optometry student—among the nation’s best—who is training to be that doctor someday.

We take this team approach to every service we provide, not only to prepare our future optometrists, but to give our patients the peace of mind that comes with an extra set of eyes.

When to see an eye doctor

Regular visits to the eye doctor are crucial to your health. Even if you feel you have perfect eyesight, eye exams can detect other potential health problems, such as diabetes, hypertension, autoimmune disorders, thyroid disease, and even cancer.

If you are having reservations about seeing an eye doctor, choose from one of the services below to understand what we do here. You will find that eye exams and other eye care services are a painless way to protect your vision and health.

Primary care exams

Recommended for: Anyone with eyes, with or without symptoms

Our primary care exams are the most basic service we provide—but they are far from basic. We take the time to give your eyes the most thorough exam possible, from the familiar chart with rows of letters to a detailed, internal inspection using microscopes and 3D imaging.

Some people don’t want to spend the time with the very thorough exams, but I much prefer this to other eye doctors who tend to rush the appointments. I feel I get the very best care at Atwater.
