This SUMMER we are featuring the STORIES of some of our handcrafted frames right on the BLOG!! 🌞⛱️

Let’s kick is off with Blake Kuwahara !!!

BLAKE KUWAHARA is an artist, designer, and optometrist. He spent his career at the forefront of vision and creativity!

The defining feature of his work…”a frame within a frame.” Influenced by architecture, art, travel, daily observation and grounded in the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi. 🎨🇯🇵

YOU can discover the story behind a designer who sees eyewear not just as something we wear, but as something we experience!! Explore the BLAKE KUWAHARA collection at our clinic TODAY. 🤩

It is with great sadness that we share the passing of Dr. Dagmar Otto, a beloved colleague who practiced with Insight Eye Care for over 30 years before retiring just a few years ago. She was a truly remarkable person and clinician, one we were deeply fortunate to have as part of this practice for so many years. Her warmth, her dedication to her patients, and the standard of care she upheld left an enduring mark on all of us. Her legacy lives on through the people she cared for, and we consider it a privilege to carry that forward. Our thoughts are with her family and all who loved her.

For those who wish to pay their respects, full details on the visitation and funeral arrangements can be found in her obituary:
