The latest local news, weather and high school sports in and around Columbia and Jefferson City

Have you ever wondered what you’d look like wearing colored contacts?

Want to see what eyeglasses in a different shape look like on your face?

Then you’ll love one of our newest technological marvels, the OfficeMate iPoint VTO (Virtual Try-On) System. iPoint VTO allows us to easily demonstrate today’s lens technologies and educate our patients on how lenses help them see better and look better.  iPoint VTO allows us to e-mail photos of our patients in their perspective frames to their friends and family right from our Columbia office!

If you’ve never worn contacts before, you may be surprised at how comfortable and easy to maintain today’s brands truly are.  Plus you don’t have to worry about wet weather, they don’t steam up, and you get a wider field of vision with contacts.  Contact lenses are also more suitable for many sports than glasses are.

You'll find an outstanding selection of eyeglass frames in a wide variety of prices from all the latest designers, such as:

* Armani Exchange * Banana Republic * Bevel Specs * BCBG * Coach * Ellen Tracy * Georgio Armani * Ogї * Oh la la de Paris * Juicy Couture * Jhane Barnes * Kate Spade * Liz Claiborne * Morel-Cottet * Lulu Guinness * Modo * Nike * Prodesign * Ronit Fűrst * Silhouette * Ted Baker * Vera Wang * Rec-Specs

Annual eye exams are vital to maintaining your vision and overall health. Andrew Stone Optometry offers the optomap® Retinal Exam as an important part of our eye exams. The optomap® Retinal Exam produces an image that is as unique as your fingerprint and provides Dr. Stone with a wide view to look at the health of your retina. The retina is the part of your eye that captures the image of what you are looking at, similar to film in a camera.

Many eye problems can develop without you knowing. You may not even notice any change in your sight. But, diseases such as macular degeneration, glaucoma, retinal tears or detachments, and other health problems such as diabetes and high blood pressure can be seen with a thorough exam of the retina.
