One place for excellence in eyecare

Welcome to Alaska Vision Center in Juneau, Alaska

Ensuring crisp and clear vision is only one part of first-rate eye care. In addition to testing visual acuity, our eye doctors focus on the lasting, quality health of your eyes. Using the latest in optometric technology, such as digital imaging, in our Juneau office, we will inspect your eyes thoroughly with a comprehensive eye and vision assessment.

Our optometric experts stay up to date with the rapid progress of medicine and technology, so you benefit from precise diagnoses and optimal treatments. Many common eye diseases, such as macular degeneration, cataracts and glaucoma, do not present symptoms until a late stage. For early detection and effective medical treatment of eye disease, visit our highly qualified and skilled eye doctors regularly for a comprehensive eye exam.

10 Out Of 10!

The doctors at Alaska Vision Center served my needs for many years since my previous eye doctor retired. The doctors are highly skilled and stay current on the latest innovations in eye care and equipment. The staff members project an attitude of service and are always pleasant. On a zero to 10 scale, I rank Alaska Vision Center as a 10 and would refer people to them.

Friendly And Helpful!

I love going to see Dr. Jill. Her staff is friendly and helpful. She explains what she is doing throughout the visit. You know the health of your eyes when you leave. She is open for asking questions and willing to take time with you. I would recommend this practice for your eye care.

They Go The Extra Mile

Friendly, courteous, professional service. Contact lenses are just as inexpensive as you can find on the internet, so no need to shop online. And they go the extra mile to help out and be nice.

Amazing!

This place is amazing! I lost my two weeks worth of contacts and was stuck on a cruise ship. I had my optometrist fax my prescription to their office. The office staff was so kind to give me a pair of contacts to last me for the rest of my trip. Thank you for helping me enjoy scenic Alaska!

Q&A with Jill Geering Matheson and Sarah Bixby-DuBois

I have eye allergies, are daily contact lenses better for me than monthlies?

The main benefits of daily disposable contact lenses are comfort, convenience and eye health; it's often worthwhile even though they cost a little more. Daily lenses only stay in your eyes for one day, and then get thrown away, eliminating any buildup of bacteria on the lenses that could cause infections or allergic reactions. So for patients who suffer from allergies, dailies are better than monthlies.

How do I know if I have Dry Eye?

Dry eye syndrome can only be diagnosed by an eye doctor. We take your symptoms into account, including the eyes feeling dry, burning, itchy or irritated. Watery eyes and blurry vision are also common because the tears, which protect the outermost surface of the eye, can be unstable.

Are glasses better for my eyes than contact lenses?

Eyeglasses are safer, because you do not have a foreign material resting on your eyes; however, with advancements in technology, contact lens material have become more breathable and healthy than before.
