Company Description

About LaGrange Eye Care – Dr. Scott Earle
Dr. Scott Earle moved to the Hudson Valley 20 years ago and started Lagrange Eyecare. They hope to bring southern hospitality and charm to his patients at LaGrange Eye Care. He attended Auburn University and graduated Magna Cum Laude. Dr. Earle graduated from Alabama School of Optometry, which is consistently ranked number one in the nation. His residency was completed in ocular disease and refractive surgery management from Omni Eye Specialists in Denver, Colorado. Only 2% of all Optometrists complete a residency in ocular disease. He is a member of the American Optometric Association, New York Optometric Association, and the LaGrange Rotary. He’s residency trained in ocular disease and sees patients of all ages.
As the health care provider first consulted by many patients, the optometrist has the responsibility to determine whether the patient is threatened by any health problems which may not be currently addressed by other professionals. While protection of life and sight is the optometrist’s first responsibility, many systemic diseases – not treated by optometrists – are first diagnosed as a result of the optometric examination.

Why Work Here?

Pleasant small business environment, not a big box!
