When it comes to eye care, convenience matters—especially for families. Morgantown Eye Associates understands the juggle of school schedules, work commitments, and multiple kids needing checkups. That’s why we’ve designed our practice to make family eye care as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Here’s what you need to know when planning your next visit with us:
Can My Whole Family Be Seen Together?
Yes, but with a few helpful guidelines. While we love seeing families together, we typically schedule up to 2–3 family members at a time to ensure every patient receives personalized attention.
Why? Because a great eye exam takes time—and we want to give each of you our full focus. If you have a larger family, we’re happy to split appointments between two days or coordinate separate parent-child visits for convenience.
That said, exceptions are always made for families traveling a long distance or when special accommodation is needed. Just let us know your situation when booking.
After-School & Kid-Friendly Scheduling
We offer after-school appointments, especially on Mondays and Thursdays, when we’re open until 7:00 p.m. For weekdays, our last appointment generally starts around 3:40 p.m.—a perfect window for post-school visits.
Our team is also great with kids of all ages and knows how to make their first or tenth exam a positive experience.
How Young Can Children Start Eye Exams?
We recommend eye exams starting as early as 6 months old! Our doctors are trained in pediatric eye care and participate in the InfantSEE® program, offering comprehensive eye exam assessments for infants.
After that, regular checkups help ensure your child’s vision is developing properly and support their success in school and sports.
What to Expect During a Family Visit
- Online forms: We’ll send paperwork ahead of time via text to save you time in-office.
- Personalized care: Our techs and opticians help each family member through every step—from pre-testing to picking out frames.
- Optical browsing: While you wait, feel free to explore our wide selection of eyewear for all ages.
- Flexible rescheduling: Life happens—we’ll work with you to find the right time if plans change.
Is There Help for New Contact Lens Wearers?
Absolutely. If your child or teen is getting contacts for the first time, we offer insertion and removal training. Our team takes time to walk them through cleaning, wearing, and removing their lenses safely—at their own pace.
