Eye Care Optical Offers More Than Just Eye Glasses
Ivonne Zorrilla is a licensed ophthalmic dispenser since 1992 and holds a degree in Ophthalmic Science.  She started as an optometric assistant near Wayne, N.J.  She returned to school and subsequently passed the State Board exam.  Ivonne has worked in several types of settings, such as large optical shops and independent optical dispensaries.  What she enjoys the most is the private ophthalmic practice.  Ivonne is able to provide personalized service to each patient in this environment.  “I love to be able to give one-on-one attention to all my patients. It gives me great satisfaction to provide them with top-of-the-line products in order to give them optimal vision.”  

At Eye Care Optical, we offer the best quality lenses. One of our best choices is Varilux progressive lenses with the latest digital surfacing technology. This gives patients optimized vision, eliminating the difficulty getting adjusted to progressive eyeglasses. We carry Crizal Avance with Scotchgard Protector anti-reflective lenses. The major advantage of having a lens with this anti-reflection process is better night-driving vision. This lens reduces the glare from headlights and decreases eye fatigue from working on computers.

The doctors at Eye Care Associates of New Jersey recommend that patients wear sunglasses. Studies have shown that one of the major causes of cataracts is exposure to the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun. Eye Care Optical offers a wide variety of the latest sunglass frames and polarized lenses, which diminish the blinding glare caused by the sun. Stop in and speak with Ivonne about any concerns you have with your eyeglass prescription. She will demonstrate the various types of lenses available to customize your eyeglasses for the best vision possible.

Using Flexible Spending Accounts For Your Eye Care Needs
A flexible spending account (FSA) allows an employee to set aside a portion of his or her earnings to pay for qualified medical expenses. Money deducted from an employee's pay into an FSA is not subject to payroll taxes, resulting in a substantial payroll tax savings. Use your FSA for Laser Vision Correction surgery and Cataract surgery with the     ReSTOR® lens.  Dr. Adam Friend is a board-certified fellowship-trained corneal specialist who performs all Cataract and Vision Correction surgery at the practice. You may also utilize your FSA to purchase polarized sunglasses from Eye Care
Optical or that second pair of glasses.  You can even use your FSA to purchase contact lenses. For most people, your FSA must be completely used up by the end of the calendar year.  Call us or visit our web site TODAY to schedule an appointment and make the most of your flexible spending account.
