Cannon EyeCare is a high end optometry practice that is accepting new patients. We can handle just about any eye issue, but most patients are in for contact lens fittings, a glasses Rx, and/or dry eye management. Run by a husband and wife team from Indiana, this is a true family business. It is our goal to provide the best eye exams in Seattle, and we love working with kids age 5+ who know their letters.
