To meet the need for affordable eye care, we’ve created a new Rainier Eye Vision Membership Plan.

Friday, September 26th from 4-7pm we will have a Frame Show featuring Etnia Barcelona eyewear, delicious Spanish tapas from Ox and The Loft and giveaways. During this time only, our selection DOUBLES. Etnia Barcelona is known for its high-quality, colorful eyewear that lasts.

This summer we’ve had a few new arrivals at Rainier Eye. First, we’ve added gentle products for use around the eyes. At our checkout desk, you can now conveniently take home Optase Eye Cream, Gentle Makeup Remover, and Nordic Naturals fish oil capsules. 

We know that things get hectic in August with gathering school supplies, sports physicals, and new clothes, so this is your friendly reminder to schedule back-to-school eye exams for your kiddos.

It may not feel like spring outside, but allergy season has begun in our area! If you’re noticing that your eyes are itchy and watery, you are most likely experiencing allergic conjunctivitis or “eye allergies.” 

January is glaucoma awareness month. The whole reason for trying to raise awareness is that people often don’t know they are losing vision from glaucoma until it’s too late. This disease earns the nickname, “The Silent Thief of Sight.” It’s more common over age 50, in those with circulatory diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure, and tends to run in families.

Do you have diabetes? Is your medical doctor asking you to get your eyes checked? Do you wonder why?
