Ophthalmology Practice in San Luis Obispo Sponsors SLO Symphony's 50th Anniversary

    SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA, April 07, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Pacific Eye (www.paceyemd.com), the premier ophthalmology practice that provides optometry services in San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties, continues to support the communities it serves with its sponsorship of the SLO Symphony's 50th anniversary season.

Pacific Eye is known for providing comprehensive vision care services, including routine eye care, cataract surgery, and refractive surgical procedures including IntraLase LASIK in San Luis Obispo. In addition to their professional services, the practice is devoted to supporting their community. For example, this group of 8 ophthalmologists and an optometrist regularly offers free eye care seminars at its area offices. In 2009, the practice was nominated for the San Luis Obispo Chamber of Commerce Green Award. And now, by sponsoring the SLO Symphony's 50th Anniversary, they continue to give back to the Central Coast by supporting the arts.

"We want to foster a healthy community," says Dr. Adam D. Abroms, an ophthalmologist at the practice. "And part of that goal is supporting the arts. The San Luis Obispo Symphony has been providing local musicians a place to learn and grow for 5 decades, but it's also been giving the entire Central Coast an opportunity to hear first-rate musical performances. Sponsoring their 50th Anniversary is Pacific Eye's way of thanking them for that."

With 7 locations along the Central Coast, Pacific Eye is recognized as the premier eye care group in the area. Vision care services offered at the practice include:

- Custom cataract surgery featuring the latest advanced implants such as Restor , ReZoom and Crystalens
- Pioneers in the area's only stationary IntraLase LASIK
- The latest treatments and surgery for macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, eye misalignment, and other diseases of the eye
- Pediatric eye care
- Many other sophisticated diagnostic and therapeutic procedures

"To give back to our community - whether that's our local community here on the Central Coast or our global community - gives the doctors and staff at Pacific Eye a real sense of purpose," adds Dr. Rupert C. Chowins, an optometrist in San Luis Obispo who has travelled internationally to provide eye care for underserved communities in Central and South America.

With a team of doctors practicing in 7 locations, the Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo County ophthalmology and optometry practice of Pacific Eye (www.paceyemd.com) is committed to providing top level eye care to patients. The mission of the practice is to care for patients' vision throughout their lives, providing ethical, medical and surgical eye care at the most advanced level, while investing in its employees and promoting the health of the communities it serves.
