Boston Healthy Sight Choices



Making healthy sight choices in Boston is worth the effort. In a recent report by the American Foundation for The Blind, losing sight was tied with paralysis as the health condition that would have the most negative impact, considered worse than HIV/AIDS, cancer, stroke and several other serious medical conditions. Today’s eyewear can do more than just correct vision; it helps to optimize vision for everyday activities, and plays an important role in protecting and preserving vision for the future. Patients sometimes do not always know the full importance of eyewear. Eyewear can be viewed as a commodity rather than a health care product or medical device which leaves them as a consumer considering price as their ultimate concern when making eyewear selections. At D’Ambrosio Eye Care we educate patients to the importance of eyewear and that it can restore, maintain and enhance vision to enable the greater understanding of the value of vision care and eyewear. We want patients to take steps to protect vision.

Based on the legal principles of “informed choice” we feel, at D’Ambrosio Eye Care, that all patients should be informed so they can make knowledgeable eyewear purchases. Eyewear safety is an obligation that we take seriously as licensed providers. So if you ever have any questions or concerns regarding your vision or your eyewear choices stop by any of our locations anytime and we will be happy to help you choose your next pair of eyewear.

If you have any questions, or need an eye examination, please call D’Ambrosio Eye Care at 800-325-3927. You may also request an appointment at facebook.com/dambrosioeyecare.
