About Us

For more than half a century The Eye Care Group has been committed to serving our community with quality, affordable eye care. We have four North Carolina licensed optometrists, board certified opticians, highly trained technicians, and support staff all dedicated to providing families with the care they need. Your vision is unique and your care should be too. It is our mission to provide your family with quality, personal care so that your vision is the best it can be.

For your convenience, our Optical Centers offer a huge selection of frames and lenses. We’re equipped with the latest technology to provide the very best service and highest quality. We are confident you will be able to find the right frames for any style!

We are committed to providing contact lenses to patients who feel contact lenses are a match for their lifestyle. Whether you are a simple or complicated fit, we want your contact lenses to be comfortable, safe, and convenient. We welcome those interested in monovision, bifocal contacts, colors, or patients with astigmatism.

We provide comprehensive routine eye exams and thorough follow-up care for all ages. We use the latest technology to diagnose eye diseases like glaucoma, diabetic and hypertensive retinopathy, and cataracts. We also proactively manage complications due to injury, dry eye, infection, or even foreign body removal.

Visit us at any of our three locations. In High Point, we’re located on Eastchester Drive close to Oak Hollow Mall, in the heart of Lexington, we’re on East Center Street, and in Wallburg we are in the Wallburg Town Center Shopping Mall. At all of our locations you’ll find the most advanced eye care services available. We look forward to caring for you and your family.
