Pros: Expert, professional, and trustworthy optometry service; Helpful and knowledgeable opticians; Friendly administrative/reception staff; Quality frames and lenses; Socially responsible
Cons: Could provide better glasses fitting service
Optometry: My wife and I have been going to see Dr. Lewis for 12 years and we have had nothing but positive experiences. Dr. Lewis is knowledgeable, experienced, and trustworthy. He's also a great communicator. He explains what's going on with your eyes in plain English and is always willing to answer any questions you might have. We've also seen Dr. Pajot on different occasions and she is also very competent, knowledgeable, and friendly. She was especially helpful explaining color blindness to my young son.
Optician Services: The frames are a bit on the expensive side, but I've learned that it's because they don't source frames from the Luxottica conglomerate. This is why I included "socially responsible" above. They're opticians have educated me on this (see: youtube.com/watch?v=gDdq…). They also use high quality lens manufacturers like Zeiss, which is especially important if you have a difficult prescription. The opticians here are very helpful in breaking down the costs of lens features and what insurance will cover. I've also never felt pressured to add on lens features that I didn't want to pay for. The ONLY issue I've had is with getting my glasses fitted for comfort and have gone elsewhere to get my frames adjusted when needed. That said, you will be properly measured to ensure that the lens is set up in the frame properly in relation to your eye.
Administration/Reception: The reception staff are friendly and helpful. Scheduling appointments has never been an issue. I always get reminders via post card and my appointments are confirmed by phone. I receive the confirmations in time to cancel or reschedule the appointment if needed (they have a 24 hour cancellation policy like most places). They have also been very helpful and accommodating in getting summary statements for HSA/FSA.
I've been going to optometrists for over 30 years and have worn glasses and contact lenses my entire adult life. I've also recently had Lasik. I trust Beaumont Vision and would highly recommend their service.read moreread lessKei I.Came in for a routine eye exam and updated sunglasses. Couldn't be happier to have found Beaumont Vision.

- I have been coming to them for at least 10 years, and for good reasons. My insurance covers eye exams, as many do. Why not get the most thorough and professional exam possible? Drs. Lewis and Pajot have been so helpful and careful to tailor my exams to make sure I am not having damage to my eyes from my other health problems. Their glasses selection is quite unique, and their frames never fail to draw compliments. I cannot choose frames to save my life, but with their help, I find frames that improve my bland looks! And my new contacts give me the best vision and comfort I have ever had with contacts, considering my astigmatism. Thank you!read moreread lessA H.Super fantastic care and attention to detail.read moreread lessJohn h.Doctor Sarah Pajot is excellent. She is knowledeable, competent and thorough.

- Great selection of frames and helpful, knowledgeable, and professional staff. I highly recommend Beaumont Vision for your eye care needs.read moreread lessJody G.Dr. Lewis is tremendous with children. He has helped both my kids with their eyes and we are very happy with his service and attention to detail. I have a semi rare eye condition so I am very particular with who sees my family. Dr. Lewis is not only very knowledgeable but he has incredible patience. Highly recommend his services!read moreread lessGeorge C.Courteous, professional and very friendly staff. Dr. Lewis is top-notch. Not only is he quick and efficient in his work, he's also patient and willing to answer any questions you may have. During my recent eye exam, he discovered my overall eye health to be deteriorating due to the over use of contacts on my part. He prescribed a simple over the counter eye drop to take twice a day, and after a few short weeks the itchiness and irritation I had been living with for nearly a year, started to go away! On top of that, after receiving my initial set of glasses, I was experiencing some trouble seeing clearly through them. Distant objects were fuzzy, and I had this weird warping around the edges of my vision. The staff offered to retest my prescription free of charge to ensure no mistakes were made. There weren't any mistakes--what I was experiencing was an adjustment period, due to the fact that I had mainly been wearing contacts for the past few years. Dr. Lewis also explained how it may take a week or two to get used to the minor astigmatism adjustment that was new to my prescription. Sure enough, a few weeks later, the warping around the edges disappeared, and distant objects started coming into focus. Their warm reception to the issues I was experiencing made a lasting impression. I won't think twice of where to go for future check-ups. I highly recommend Beaumont Vision to anyone that's looking to be treated cordially and with respect.read moreread lessNathan C.
- I've been going here too long to not write a review for this place. Dr. Lewis has been and is currently helping me through glaucoma. I'm right on that edge of medication or not for this disease. Because I'm on the younger side for the average glaucoma patient, he is attacking it in every way possible. When one medication doesn't work or causes an allergic reaction, he is right there holding my hand through the process. Dr. Lewis is super easy to talk to. He spends time with his patients and makes them feel comfortable with the decisions he is making.The people he uses up front for insurance and glasses are also right on point. They are helpful without being pushy. I'm sure you could find glasses cheaper somewhere else, but strong customer service has me coming back every time.read moreread lessJr P.Had a great visit with the optometrist, but today's 5 stars goes to Margot who helped me work through my insurance that has been a struggle with work with.

I highly recommend all services at Beaumont Vision.read moreread lessNicole Z.If you want a vision care experience where it's all about you than Beaumont Vision is the place. Had a most wonderful time picking out frames. The staff is so helpful here and don't push to make the biggest profit. They truly listen to what one has to say and once it was all said and done one leaves happy and confident with the eyewear that one decided on. I can't wait to receive my new glasses in a couple of weeks. Thank you, Beaumont Vision.read moreread lessFelipe S.

Dr. Lewis is the same and I very much appreciate the time he takes to explain issues, and do the exam.

I also like the fact that he is interested in delving into eye problems and giving recommendations for things I can do at home to improve my issue.

He was able to connect all the dots - from dry eyes to inflammation of the cornea - really educate me about my condition, and provided clear, thorough instructions about many many things I can do at home to treat my wide range of problems. He was able to test in depth a wide range of conditions to properly assess my condition -- that previous doctors didn't even consider were related at all.

to Beaumont Vision. From eye exam to the final delivery, they were a class act, I trusted them that I was in good hands. If there is a question or issue, they work with you in language you can understand. They are patient and know their stuff guiding you, instead of forcing you into your best case scenario.

Services We Offer

Dr. Lewis and Dr. Pajot will work patiently with you to ensure that your prescription suits your vision requirements perfectly.
Children’s Eye Care
It’s never too early for an eye exam! The American Optometric Association suggests that children should have their eyes examined at six months, three years, and just prior to starting school.
At Beaumont Vision, we have a large selection of children’s frames. Getting glasses is a big step for your child, but they’ll certainly find a style that makes them feel confident and comfortable.
Contact Lenses
Whether you’re a lifelong contact wearer or someone who has never tried on a pair of contact lenses, Beaumont Vision can help you find the perfect lens for your needs. And don’t worry: we’ll teach you how to put them in, too!
Dry Eye Management
Dry eye signs and symptoms could be associated with some other condition, or this might indicate a chronic problem. Whatever the case may be, the doctors and staff at Beaumont Vision can help. We manage a significant number of dry eye patients, and we can provide dry eye sufferers with a wide array of effective options.
LASIK Patient Care
Recovery from LASIK surgery tends to be relatively comfortable and short. Having said that, proper outcomes require appropriate pre- and post-operative care. At Beaumont Vision, our doctors are thoroughly qualified to guide you through the LASIK recovery process, so you can get back to living your life as efficiently and comfortably as possible.
Cataract Co-Management
Generally, cataract surgery is a successful procedure. However, proper care is necessary to ensure the best outcome and we provide co-management services for patients undergoing cataract surgery. From pre-procedure testing to post-surgery checkups, we’re here for you.

Our state of the art optical lab and experienced optometric physicians can handle a wide array of emergency situations, from treating eye trauma to removing foreign bodies (metal or plastic fragments, organic material, etc.) from the eye.
Digital Retinal Imaging
Digital retinal imaging allows our doctors to thoroughly examine the light-sensitive lining inside your eye. The high magnification and sharp resolution of our state-of-the-art digital retinal imaging help our doctors detect early warning signs of issues that could be strictly vision-related (such as macular degeneration) or conditions that could affect your whole body (such as diabetes and high blood pressure).
We recommend an evaluation of the retina with each comprehensive eye exam.
Visual Field Testing
Visual field testing allows our doctors to check your visual system for blind spots.
Visual field testing aids in detecting early signs of ocular and neurological diseases. This is highly valuable, non-invasive test that is commonly performed for a wide variety of conditions.
