Gwinnett Pediatric & Adult Eye Center was founded on the belief that every member of our community—at every stage of life—deserves access to compassionate, expert eye care. While we’ve become a trusted leader in pediatric vision health, we also saw a critical gap in care for older adults, many of whom struggle with transportation and access to routine exams.
To bridge that gap, we created the Gwinnett Vision Mobile Team, an extension of our practice dedicated to bringing comprehensive eye exams, treatment, and education directly to assisted living facilities and senior centers. By eliminating logistical barriers and billing insurers directly, we ensure seniors receive the care they need without burdening families or facilities.
Our mission is simple yet powerful: to preserve clarity, independence, and quality of life for seniors—because healthy vision should never be out of reach.
