Three floors. Twenty-six exam and treatment rooms. Four surgical suites — every stage of your care in one building.
What we do best
Every eye is different, which is why we never start with the procedure. We start with your measurements, your health, and how you actually use your vision.
Complete Eye Health
Full medical eye care for adults — examinations, diagnosis and ongoing management of the conditions that affect how you see, from routine vision changes to complex disease.
Premium Lens Implants
Cataract surgery is no longer only about removing a cloudy lens. With premium lens implants it becomes an opportunity to address a lifetime of prescription at the same time.
Custom No-Flap LASIK
Wake up, look at the clock, and simply see. Our custom, no-flap laser vision correction is mapped to the unique optical fingerprint of your eye — not to an average.
Minimally Invasive
For keratoconus and corneal thinning, crosslinking strengthens the collagen bonds inside your cornea — a minimally invasive treatment intended to halt progression and protect the sight you have.
Ocular Surface
Chronic dry eye is an inflammatory disease of the tear film and ocular surface, not simply a shortage of tears — which is why drops alone so often fall short.
Retina
Medical management of the retina — macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, macular oedema and related disease, including in-office intravitreal injection therapy.
Understand your eye
Almost every condition we treat comes down to one of these parts not doing its job. Knowing which one it is makes your own diagnosis far easier to follow.
See it for yourself
Choose a condition, then drag to move between how it can look and a corrected view. For many of our patients this is not a metaphor — it is the week of their procedure.
CataractCorrectedA clouding lens scatters light: colours fade and yellow, contrast drops, and bright light causes glare.
An illustrative simulation, not a diagnosis. How a condition affects your sight — and what can be done about it — is determined by an examination.
Why Rand
Dr. William J. Rand opened this practice with one nurse, one optometrist, and two receptionists. What has not changed in fifty years is the belief that the surgeon who recommends a procedure should be the one who performs it — and the one who checks on you afterward.
Consultation, diagnostics, surgery, and follow-up all happen under one roof, in our own surgical pavilion. You are never handed off to a facility that has never met you.
The physician who evaluates your eyes is the physician who operates on them, and the one who sees you afterward. Continuity is the whole point.
We adopt a platform when it measurably improves an outcome — LenSx, PanOptix, premium lens implants — and we train the entire team on it before it touches a patient.
We have grown from four exam rooms to one of the largest comprehensive eye care facilities in the country, with over 100 professionals on staff.

Inside the pavilion
The same team, in the same building, from the first measurement to the moment you sit up and look around the room.
Technology
We adopt a platform when it measurably improves an outcome — not because it is new.
Computer-guided, image-mapped cataract surgery. Incisions planned in software before a single one is made.
Maps the optical imperfections unique to your eye and builds a laser treatment around them.
A trifocal lens implant that restores near, intermediate and distance vision from a single lens.
Our own state-licensed, Joint Commission certified surgical facility — inside the building.
Clinical research
We take part in clinical studies so our patients can reach newer treatments years before they are widely available. Below are areas we are currently running trials in.
Retina — Neovascular AMD
In the wet form, abnormal vessels grow beneath the retina and leak fluid and blood, which can take central vision quickly. Standard care is injections that suppress that growth. Research in this area looks at treatments that last longer between visits.
Retina — Geographic Atrophy
The dry form advances slowly as cells in the macula thin and drop out, leaving blind spots that widen over time. Research here is focused on slowing how fast that atrophy spreads.
Ocular Surface
Chronic dry eye is an inflammatory disease of the tear film and ocular surface, not simply a lack of tears — which is why drops alone often fall short. Research looks at treatments that address the inflammation underneath.
Taking part is entirely voluntary, and choosing not to will never change the care you receive here. Whether you are eligible is decided at a screening visit, not over the phone — every study has strict criteria, and most people who ask will not qualify for a given trial. A study treatment is being investigated precisely because its benefit is not yet proven, so no outcome can be promised. Your study doctor will walk you through the risks, what is involved and your right to withdraw at any time before you consent to anything.

Patient stories
“I had worn glasses since I was nine years old. The morning after my procedure I walked outside and read a street sign across the intersection. I sat down on the curb.”
“Everything was explained twice — once by the technician and once by my surgeon — before I ever agreed to anything. I never felt sold to. I felt cared for.”
“My son was told his keratoconus would keep getting worse. Cross-linking stopped it. That is the entire sentence, and it changed our year.”
Straight answers
And if yours is not here, call us. A member of our clinical team will answer it — not a call centre.
That is exactly what the consultation determines. We map your cornea, measure its thickness, check your prescription stability and overall eye health, and then tell you honestly which procedure fits — including when the answer is that you should wait, or that a different procedure serves you better.
The eye is numbed with anesthetic drops, so the procedure itself is not painful. Most patients describe pressure and light rather than pain. Some scratchiness or watering for a day or two afterward is normal and expected.
Recovery is different for everyone, and it depends on the procedure, your eyes and your general health — so we will not put a number on it here. What we will do is give you a written recovery plan at your consultation, tell you honestly what to expect in your case, and stay reachable throughout. If anything worries you afterwards, you call us and we see you.
Yes. These are outpatient procedures performed with numbing drops and, when appropriate, a mild oral relaxant. You go home the same day — you will just need someone to drive you.
Medically necessary care — including cataract surgery and cross-linking — is generally covered by medical insurance, and we accept a wide range of plans. Elective vision correction such as LASIK typically is not, which is why we offer interest-free monthly payment plans. Our team verifies your specific benefits before you commit to anything.
Pricing depends on the procedure and, for cataract surgery, on the lens you choose. We give you a complete written figure at your consultation with no obligation — and we will walk you through insurance coverage and interest-free monthly financing at the same time.
The next step
A full diagnostic workup and an honest recommendation — including when the honest recommendation is to wait. No obligation, no pressure.
