Celebrating 25 Years of Care
Eye Care
Eye Conditions
The team at Nilsen Eye Care have extensive experience identifying, treating and managing a wide range of eye conditions. We frequently treat patients for glaucoma, cataracts, and complications related to diabetes. Some complications from diabetes may require further treatment from a specialist, which we can also help with! We’ve worked with numerous providers in the area for over 25 years and have established working relationships with many of them.
Eye Conditons
Diabetic Eye Care
Individuals diagnosed with diabetes are at a higher risk for developing vision disorders. With regular eye exams, eye problems associated with diabetes can be detected and treated early. For this reason, Nilsen Eye Care takes extra steps to help protect your vision and eye health. The specialized care we offer includes:
- Conducting a dilated eye exam, with findings sent to your primary care physician and/or endocrinologist.
- Offering specialized tests like optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fundus photography.
- Discussing your health history with you, including how long you’ve had diabetes and your most recent blood sugar reading and Hemoglobin A1C (HgA1C).
- Educating you about your risk for eye conditions such as glaucoma and early cataracts. In addition to how elevated blood sugars can cause a large fluctuation in your vision.
Eye Care
Experiencing any symptoms?
In addition to having a comprehensive annual eye exam, be sure to see your eye care provider promptly if you notice any of the following changes to your vision: blurry, double, or cloudy vision, pain or pressure in one or both of your eyes, trouble with peripheral vision, floating or flashing lights, or dark spots.
Testimonials
What Our Patients Say About Nilsen Eye Care
“What a ideal experience! This is the 1st time I’ve needed glasses as an adult, and Nilsen made the process so smooth, and they genuinely cared about my concerns on picking the right frame and lenses for me. They have an opulent selection and 30-day satisfaction guarantee. One pair of my glasses came in scratched, and because they have a quality check upon arrival, Nilsen had already sent them back to be replaced. I love proactive companies!”

“The service is outstanding. From the knowledge of the optic wear staff, friendliness of the front desk, and personable interns, and doctors who listen and have excellent wisdom and interpersonal skills. I keep thinking we might try a different place, but after more than 10 years and with less expensive lenses elsewhere, we keep returning to Nilsen.”

“I’ve been wearing glasses for 15 years and one visit here has me seeing better than I ever have. My appointment was at 3, and they had me in a chair pretty much when I walked in. No wait at all. Staff are very friendly and helpful. I won’t go anywhere else.”
