Cannon EyeCare is a high-end optometry practice that is accepting new patients. We can handle just about any eye issue. Dr. Mark Cannon sees all of our patients at Pike Place Market.
Our patients can order contacts from our website easily. We might even be able to bill your vision insurance... but email us first.
The optometrists at Cannon EyeCare strive to provide the best eye exams in Seattle. We block off enough time to be thorough so that we can address each patient's individual vision and eye health concerns.
The eye doctors at Cannon EyeCare will try to learn more about your visual demands at work (and at play) at the start of your eye exam.
We fit patients for glasses, contact lenses (including complex multifocal and toric fits), and do evaluations for Lasik.
Both Dr. Miranda Cannon and Dr. Mark J. Cannon are from Indiana, and moved to Seattle right after graduating from optometry school and getting married in the same month. Some say folks from the Midwest tend to have a certain kind of personality that makes them easy to get along with. We look forward to meeting you, and we do hope you’ll enjoy our Midwestern hospitality.
Our optometrists are experienced eye doctors who provide comprehensive eye exams and contact lens fittings while evaluating your eye health better than most ophthalmology clinics do. Click below to learn more about Seattle’s top-rated optometrists on Google, Drs. Mark and Miranda Cannon.
Cannon EyeCare is excited to announce we have opened a second Seattle vision clinic at Pike Place’s Market Optical in downtown Seattle. We purchased Dr. Cynthia Ruggeiro’s practice inside the original Pike Place Market Optical in February 2022. Cannon EyeCare is excited to bring our award-winning eye care to a new neighborhood of Seattle. The University Village location remains busy as always. Dr. Mark works at both locations, while Dr. Miranda Cannon is at University Village only for now.

It’s $195 for a ‘routine glasses exam’. An eye exam with a contact lens fitting is a bit more, at about $300.
An optician is a glasses sales and repair person. They take the Rx data (from an eye doctor) and then set the patient up with proper frames and lenses so it all works. Some opticians literally grind lenses to fit whatever frame you desire.
These fabricators are specialized opticians who are also typically better at glasses repairs.
Optometrists like doctors Mark and Miranda Cannon are primary care eye doctors that can handle nearly any eye problem.
Ophthalmologists are surgeons who work on eyes. Most patients go to optometrists for annual eye exams, and would be referred to an ophthalmologist as needed for surgical consults, etc.
Many ocular and systemic diseases can be detected at an eye exam. There are many types of ocular surface disease (Dry eye, etc), corneal disease, cataracts, glaucoma and retinal/vitreous issues. We are also testing brain function on many levels.
Then there are a number of systemic diseases that can be initially diagnosed at an eye exam, such as diabetes and high blood pressure.
Yes, and optometrists also treat most forms of eye disease.
In most states (including Washington) the answer is no. Some states have expanded the optometrists scope of practice to include laser surgery and the removal of “lumps and bumps”.
Yes. The patient should plan on a dilated eye exam.
The cost of glasses varies widely. Warby Parker and other online sellers can often get you a complete pair for $100 or less. Most people pay closer to $400 for a good pair of frames and single vision lenses. At Market Optical in U-Village, most of the frames are $400 and up; then you need to pay for lenses.
