The mirror shows the same frustrating sight—bloodshot eyes that make you look tired and feel uncomfortable all day. The key difference lies in your symptoms: allergies typically cause itchy, watery eyes with seasonal patterns, […]
You step outside on a crisp winter morning, and within minutes, tears start streaming down your cheeks. Your eyes water so much that you can barely see where you’re going.

It turns out that overusing eye drops can create a dependency. As a general rule:
Over-the-counter artificial tears can be used around 2 to 4 times a day.
Preservative-free artificial tears can be used as needed, upwards of 6 to 8 times a day.
Prescription eye drops should be used as advised by your optometrist, which is generally once or twice a day.

A professional touch is key when updating your eyewear with new glasses. Your glasses don’t just let you see well—they should also help you look good!

Our eyes are essential to our overall health, so it’s important to keep them in check with regular eye exams. These exams are not just about spotting vision problems or eye diseases; they can also provide clues about other health issues.

An eye exam, including a slit lamp test, Schirmer’s test, and tear break up time test conducted by your eye doctor can diagnose dry eye […]
I cannot say enough about how kind and helpful the staff is. The office and exam rooms are clean, comfortable and updated. Dr. Frank Celin was professional, personable and knowledgeable about my eye conditions nystagmus and strabismus. He took his time and treated me with care. The staff spent at least an hour helping me pick out and narrow down frames from a great, selection. After trying a few different ophthalmologists over the years, I feel very comfortable in Dr. Celin’s care and will be going back.
With 3 office locations it is ideal for selecting an appointment time and area that is convenient for you. The staff at each office are helpful, knowledgeable, friendly and ready to help when you need it. The doctors are professional yet friendly, thorough yet timely. If you haven’t gone to this practice, go. McCauley, Celin Eyegroup I think leads the area for excellence in Eyecare!
My experiences have always been more than anticipated. The staff and doctors continue to do more than ever expected. Interested in a patients view/treatment at their offices and exceptional frames. I have family from out of town who book their appointments here because they feel their care is in best hands from lasik info and contacts to their frames and lenses. Still the best!
I switched from Dr. Prazer (and his own practice) to Dr. Caitlin McCauley when I had to change insurance several years ago. I was reluctant to switch, but I soon found that Dr. McCauley was just as wonderful and knowledgeable.
Everyone is so nice in their offices. The other day I kept the office person on the phone for the longest time trying to find the best appt time. She never even flinched! I felt so bad wasting her time but she made me feel so comfortable. Exceptional selection of glasses, and seriously sincere staff and physicians. I would recommend them to anyone. I chose this office after a bad experience with a local competing office and I am quite please with my choice!
They have 3 local offices was extensive hours. They can even accommodate patients on evenings and weekends! I saw Dr. Robert McCauley. I found him to be very pleasant and knowledgeable. The waiting room is very clean and brightly lit. As I went in the evening it was nice and quiet. It almost doesn’t matter though. Both times that I went I was taken promptly and even a little early! I only went for my contacts so I don’t have any comments regarding their frames department, but I will be sure to come back once I need new glasses.
I have been coming here for years and not once has any visit been below fantastic service. My appointments have been on time and I’m usually in and out within an hour. I once tried to visit a new eye doctor where I worked out of convenience and it was a terrible mistake. No matter what section of town I live in, I will always make it a mission to keep my business here.
This is the best most thorough place you can go for eye care. The selection of glasses frames is excellent and you can be sure you are getting a thorough eye exam. The staff are friendly professional and we’ll informed.
Terrific practice! Relocated last year from the east coast and a friend suggested this group. Dr. Lindsay and her team are highly skilled professionals, who genuinely have their patients best interests. I appreciate Dr. Lindsays’ sincere effort ensuring the eyewear I choose will meet my professional and personal needs. Awesome Doctor!
Beyond helpful and patient. Dr. Lindsay is amazing and was able to find a pair of contacts for me to wear after 10+ years of being stuck wearing only glasses. The entire staff, and Dennis in particular, are always there for you if you ever need anything. A++ service.
Fantastic office right down to the staff! Dr Lindsay was so wonderful ! Very attentive to a problem I was having , took the time to explain everything to me very thoroughly and truly showed she cared !
