New Era Eyecare, Alexandria

At New Era Eyecare Optometrists, Dr. Edwin Adair leads a staff that includes an optician, an eyewear consultant, and a contact-lens specialist in improving patients’ vision. Dr. Adair uses advanced equipment during annual check-ups—including the optomap retinal exam, which gives a clearer picture of the retina and tells him how effectively it’s absorbing light or casting shadow puppets. After he has checked fields of vision and established visual acuity, he turns patients loose into the bright, wood-accented boutique to shop among designer frames from Gucci, Prada, Oliver Peoples, Nike, and Tom Ford.
