We have a great opportunity for an optometrist who loves PEDIATRICS and would love
to craft their own VISION THERAPY practice!
Our practice is set to move into a newly renovated 10,000 sqft building in late Summer / early Fall 2024 – and we’ve built room(s) just for YOU. Our practice has been serving Plainville and its neighboring communities for 40 years, and continues to flourish. We have a very strong referral base of local pediatricians due to a lack of access-to-care for pediatric vision care providers. Where children come, their families follow! (And hopefully you will too.) We pride ourselves in providing compassionate, individualized eye care to the entire family, with the best technology available. A proud InfantSEE practice… we care for all family members including big brothers with myopia, moms with dry eyes and great-grandpas with glaucoma; we take care of them all, and would love for you to as well. While we have become a high volume practice, we manage to provide thorough care within an efficient office flow that patients appreciate.

Greater Hartford Area
Plainville is within the Greater Hartford Area, and has many surrounding towns that provide
various levels of quiet and excitement. For the Ski, Nature and Hiking enthusiast there are many
slopes and state parks throughout CT. For others who imbibe, there are many microbreweries
and wine trails. If you need surf and sun, we are approximately 45 minutes away from the Long
Island Sound beaches. For those looking for family friendly, great public school systems, West
Hartford ranks in the top 10 in the country and is 15 minutes away. And lastly, if you need the sites
and sounds of the Big City, both Boston and NYC are an easy 2 hour drive in either direction. We
are truly blessed in our little state to have a little something for everyone. We hope that you get a
chance to experience it for yourself.
