  • How often do I need to be seen for a routine eye exam?

    A yearly exam is recommended. However, there are other factors at play. If you have an eye disease or certain eye conditions, then it could require more frequent visits to an eye doctor in Poplar Bluff or Sikeston, MO.

  • What is the recommended age for children to be seen for their first eye exam?

    We typically say two years old is the earliest you should bring your child to an eye doctor in Poplar Bluff or Sikeston, MO. However, if you notice your child’s eye drifting, they have a hard time making eye contact, or have a birth defect, then we can see them sooner.

  • Do I have to be dilated? If so, why?

    Not necessarily. We typically dilate if you are over the age of 65 or have eye conditions that we must monitor. On rare occasions, the eye doctor in Poplar Bluff or Sikeston, MO may dilate to see better to confirm the eye is healthy.

  • What does it mean to have 20/20 vision?

    That expression refers to the sharpness of your vision. The first 20 in the sequence is the viewing distance between you and the eye chart. The second 20 in the sequence refers to a measurement of how much a person can read from 20 feet away. If you're wondering what type of vision you have, then make an appointment with an eye doctor in Poplar Bluff or Sikeston, MO.

  • What special certifications do your doctors have?

    Dr. Cassidy Obermark specializes in eye diseases. She completed her Bachelor of Science at Missouri State, her Doctor of Optometry at the University of Missouri, and her Residency in Ocular Disease at Jake C. Montgomery, VA Medical Center in 2013.

  • How long does it typically take for glasses to be ready for pickup after my eye appointment?

  • What is a contact lens evaluation? What does it cover?

    It’s a series of tests conducted after your routine eye exam to make sure the lens fits perfectly and the wearing of the lens is comfortable for the patient. It covers follow-up visits if we need to adjust your prescription or if we need to order specialty contact lenses. A free pair of trial contact lenses is given to you during your evaluation.
