Eye Exams
We offer comprehensive eye examinations for the whole family. We use some of the most technologically advanced equipment to ensure you get the most accurate results from your visit. Our refractions are performed by an eye doctor, not a technician.
Eye exams generally include a look at the front of the eye to evaluate health and prescription changes. In addition, we perform a thorough screening of the retina to verify that your eye is healthy. This can lead to early detection of common diseases, such as glaucoma, diabetes, macular degeneration, high blood pressure, and even cancer.
Eyeglasses
Note: We accept most vision insurance plans and will help you get the most out of your eyewear benefits. Check our insurance tab on our services page or call our office to see if we accept your plan. 919-468-2636
Contact Lenses
We stock a large selection of diagnostic lenses to aid in fitting you with contact lenses during your visit. In most cases you can leave with contacts on the day of your eye exam.
We can order your contact lenses from your prescription on file or you can bring in a valid prescription from another doctor and we can order them for you. Most orders take 1 to 2 days to come in. If you order an annual supply, we can have your lenses sent directly to your home or office address and the shipping is FREE! These orders do take a bit longer and usually arrive within 5 business days.
Want to order contacts online? Just fill out the "contact us" section from the tab at the top of the page or on the home page and let us know what you want to order and how many. Someone will email you back shortly to confirm your order. Alternatively, you mail email us directly at contacts@drcanting.com
Many manufacturer's offer rebates with the purchase of contact lenses. We have these rebates available and will inform you if your lens has such an offer. We also accept most major vision insurance plans and can help you get the most out of your benefits. Check our insurance tap on our services page or call the office to verify if we accept your insurance plan. 919-468-2636
Medical Treatments
If you have a mild medical eye problem such as a red eye, eye irritation, or eye allergy, we can probably help you. Doctor's of Optometry can also treat many mild eye injuries.
If you have an eye emergency after business hours, we have a doctor on call. Just call our office (919-468-2636) for instructions. Please note, after hours rates will be applied and are not usually covered by any insurance.
*NOTE* If you have a serious eye injury or medical issue you should call 911 or visit the Emergency Room.
We accept most medical and vision insurance plans. If you do not see your carrier on the list below, please call our office to verify whether or not we accept your plan. Some plans do not have ID cards and some operate under different names. We can usually determine who your benefits provider is by asking just a few short questions.
