Lakeshore Eye Care

At Lakeshore Eye Care, Dr. Michele Quintero believes exceptional eye care goes beyond achieving 20/20 vision. With over 20 years of clinical experience, she is a therapeutic optometrist and optometric glaucoma specialist dedicated to providing comprehensive, personalized care for patients of all ages. She believes every patient deserves a thorough, unrushed eye examination with treatment recommendations tailored to their individual needs.

Dr. Quintero is passionate about providing an elevated level of care that extends beyond a glasses prescription. Her clinical interests include the diagnosis and treatment of dry eye disease, diabetic eye disease, glaucoma, contact lenses, and childhood myopia. Using modern diagnostic technology, she evaluates both vision and ocular health, helping detect conditions that may develop without noticeable symptoms. She also offers treatments that address underlying contributors to dry disease rather than simply relieving symptoms.

Nearsightedness in Children

Regular comprehensive eye examinations are especially important for children, as nearsightedness, or myopia, can progressively worsen during their growing years. Increasing levels of myopia are associated with a greater risk of certain eye diseases later in life. Dr. Quintero emphasizes early detection and offers specialized treatments designed to slow myopia progression and support long-term eye health.

Advancements in Contact Lens Care

Modern contact lens technology offers solutions for a variety of vision needs. Specialized contact lenses can help slow childhood myopia progression, while other designs correct astigmatism or address age-related changes in near vision. Dr. Quintero considers each patient’s prescription, eye health, and lifestyle when recommending contact lenses to provide clear, comfortable vision.

Utilizing innovative technology and evidence-based care, Dr. Quintero takes pride in creating custom treatment plans for each patient. Whether patients are experiencing dry and irritated eyes, changes in vision, or simply need a routine eye examination, Dr. Quintero is committed to helping patients and their families achieve long-term eye health throughout their lives in a warm, welcoming environment.
