Welcome To Saratoga Vision
Taking good care of your vision is important, whether you have had troubles since childhood or you’ve been blessed with good eyesight the bulk of your life. Our Saratoga Springs optometrist relies on an eye exam to do more than tell you if you need glasses or a stronger prescription for the glasses you already have. It is a way to provide you with the eye care you need to make sure your eyes are healthy, and in some cases, eye exams can even help keep you healthy in other ways as well.
Most importantly, we recognize that your vision is about you, and we are always ready to answer any questions you have or direct you to someone who can. With four optometrists in our office, you are sure to find one that is the right fit for you and your family. We offer financing options and work with many insurance plans to see that you are able to receive the vision care you need. To learn more or to schedule an eye appointment, contact us at Saratoga Vision in Saratoga Springs, NY, at (518) 587-5900 to schedule an appointment.
Your Saratoga Springs Spot for Vision Correction
If your vision needs correcting, Saratoga Vision can find the vision solution that is best for you. For some, that may be a pair of traditional eyeglasses. Others may choose contact lenses, and some of those may need specialty or “hard-to-fit” lenses that address their unique eye health challenges, such as dry eye, astigmatism, or other conditions. Looking to ditch daily vision correction altogether?
LASIK surgery may be worth discussing. At Saratoga Vision we consult with expert LASIK surgeons and provide both preoperative and postoperative care that will help you determine if you are a candidate for the procedure, and can assure that you have an easy transition with your new vision reality.

Success Stories
First of all, the establishment and building itself is gorgeous - very new, beautiful interior and aesthetic design. The layout is great - upon entering the building, you can go to the right for appointments and you can go to the left to see the frame gallery. Secondly and more importantly, the staff was excellent - very understanding and detail-oriented. They made sure to find me the perfect frame, based on my style and facial structure, as well as took the time to make sure my prescription was immaculate. I'm looking forward to giving Saratoga Vision my business in the future!

I’m very impressed with how quickly I was seen. Dr. Brown is excellent. She was thorough and quick with her examination. The choice of glasses is very extensive. I guarantee that there is something for everyone. My glasses have always fit well. The whole office is very efficient and modern. Although Saratoga Vision is independent, they have managed to keep up with the big corporate vision care centers technologically, but are small enough to treat patients personally.

A rare 5 star review that is well deserved. They are truly a one stop shop with great staff, incredible doctors and an awesome selection of frames. When you visit Saratoga Vision you aren’t being rushed out of the door like many other Retail Optical Shops. They always go above and beyond to help a customer with whatever they may need and even offer Optos retinal photography to save you from dilation. Rest assured that your investment in yourself is in good hands with Saratoga Vision and it’s staff. Keep up the good work.
