Dr. Richard Carlin – Recap of 2024: Cataract up 2%, Lasik down 6%, Oculo up 15%, Contacts up 32%, and Optical up 34% – We saw more patients than Snellville, Loganville, and Monroe combined.
We should strive to be better and keep improving. If a patient has a question that you are unsure of how to answer, there is nothing wrong will saying you don’t know and you will find out the answer.
We are in the process of hiring an optician and are still looking for technicians. Please spread the word.
One of the goals for 2025 is to declutter. Throw away anything old, broken, or that is not being used.
Lipiflow is now $495 and Lasik is $2390 per eye.
