At Optical Effects, Gerald Gallentine Optometrist is dedicated to giving thorough, comprehensive eye exams. You may have a short wait for your appointment, but rest assured that the Doctor will take the same time and consideration to give you a complete exam and answer your questions as well. We don t believe that is possible to do a complete exam in 5 or 10 minutes. We won t even try.
