Dr. Anthony Peterson, of Precision Eye Care, is a therapeutic optometrist and glaucoma specialist. “I provide general eye care for any patient. We provide glasses and contacts, but we also diagnose and treat patients for glaucoma, diabetic eye conditions and for patients taking high-risk medications, all of which can affect your vision,” Dr. Peterson explained. “I deal with low-vision and sports vision issues and provide co-management services for LASIK and cataract patients. I treat ocular emergencies, like trauma due to injury, even if you get a piece of metal in your eye. I also prescribe medications for eye infections, which are very common.”
Dr. Peterson is a people person, who enjoys caring for a wide range of patients in the community. “My oldest patient is 105 years old, and I have a handful of other patients who are over 100. I provide pediatric services, as well. Most vision is still developing up to age 7, so I emphasize the importance of children getting yearly eye examinations. A lot of people are unaware that uncorrected vision can be linked to behavior problems in the classroom. If a child is having trouble seeing, he or she will try to avoid reading or being called on when they can’t see what’s written on the board. When adult patients come in for routine or vision-related problems, I encourage them to have their children checked, too, because many eye conditions can be genetic.”
English is his first language, but Dr. Peterson is comfortable communicating with patients in Spanish, and many of his staff are fluent in Spanish. He can also communicate with patients in American Sign Language (ASL) and
by fingerspelling.
This is home base for Dr. Peterson. He doesn’t have multiple offices scattered around the Metroplex, so you’ll always get to see him at the same convenient location. “I was born and raised here, so I’m connected to the community. I live here, so when I go to the gym or church or the grocery store, I run into my patients. I believe in investing in the community I live in, and in my practice. I want to have the best technology, and I keep all of my equipment current and up to date. It’s important for delivering superior care.” He likes to maintain a “family feel and comfort” in his office. “I love doing what I do. I focus on providing great customer service. All of my office staff have at least a medical assistant degree.” Precision Eye Care has several qualified opticians with anywhere from five to 25 years of experience working in the field.
If you’re in the market for routine or medical eye care or just a stylish pair of new glasses or contacts, Precision Eye Care has you covered. “Our eyewear section is like a boutique. We have many kinds of specialized eyewear for specific uses, like sports goggles, safety protective eyewear and prescription sunglasses. We also have a wide range of luxury frames, from American and European designers, to fit any budget, and they are suitable for any personal style.”
Precision Eye Care accepts a variety of medical and vision insurance plans, Medicare and Medicaid. They also accept CareCredit, which allows you to make monthly payments.
